Lijiang Tower (Lunar New Year) is a version of the standard Lijiang Tower map that replaces it during Year of the Rooster.
Differences[]
The map is physically identical to the original map; the only changes are aesthetic.
- The map is set during the lunar new year festival, there are continuous fireworks in the background.
- The MV-261 Orca is filled with lanterns and new year treats.
- Lanterns are dotted around the map.
- There are rockets placed around the map. If a player interacts with them, they will ignite and be launched into the sky.

Capture the Rooster version[]
Three sub-maps of this reskin are used for Capture the Rooster. The spawn rooms are completely redesigned, and there are a lot of minor differences between the normal map (and the reskin) with Capture the Rooster map:
- The names of those three maps are changed to "Lijiang Night Market", "Lijiang Garden", and "Lijiang Control Center" instead of "Lijiang Tower: Night Market", "Lijiang Tower: Garden", and "Lijiang Tower: Control Center".
- Instead of using the normal spawn rooms (the MV-261 Orca ship), a redesigned spawn room is used. It has a huge Chinese-theme room in the middle and two exits on the left and the right.
- One exit has a longer hallway than the other, and closer to the flag pedestal.
- These two exits are used to extend the distance between the home flag pedestal and the spawn point, as they create no straight route to the home flag pedestal.
- Some health packs' locations are changed or removed, especially the packs around the locations of flag pedestal.
- In Lijiang Night Market, there are two automatic lifts installed in the middle square. It provide an alternative route to the second floor around the flag.
