Why Overwatch 2 now wins the fight against Marvel's opponents

When Marvel At first he made his debut, it was the talk of the city. Practically everyone talked about the latest shooter of the hero in the block, whether it praise for her bold mechanics of the team, award for his beautiful artistic style or love for the delightful Jeff Land Shark. While these things are still the strengths of the game, as well as an impressive cadence for new edition heroes and drops of maps, Marvel He experienced a fall of grace. At the same time, Overwatch 2 was constantly improving and created a scenario where Marvel and Overwatch 2 are surprisingly close together on Steam – something that suggests Overwatch He probably has a significant lead.

Marvel“The number of steam players is around 76,000 players at the time of writing, which is about 12% of the stunning 644,000 players who have made their top number of players. Overwatch 2 It is currently on 36,000 players, which is not as much as the peak of 75,000 when it came to the platform 2 years ago.

When considering how steam is probably the least populated platform for OverwatchSince many PC players still approach the game through Battle.net, it can be safely assumed Overwatch 2 It is currently more active than its competition. Be clear Marvel It is not a “dead game”, some players like to throw incorrectly, because its top player counts 100,000 a day on Steam (and higher for the release of the hero) must not be mocked. Nevertheless, when the game continues to lose players and is unclear where its floor is, it is worth a look at what will go wrong Marvel (and right for Overwatch 2).

Why Marvel Rivals fights at the end of 2025

In addition to the natural fall of occasional players who simply tried something that was popular during the first months of the game, Marvel“The fighting is triple, and each problem has the same impact on the decline in the game. These problems are:

Lack of strategist heroes.
Doubtful equalization and matching.
An increasingly toxic community.

The most obvious of these problems is that the game grows rapidly for one of three roles, because since Ultron in May there was no new strategist. Unfortunately, the future is not so clear, because it is difficult to imagine that leaked characters in the next few seasons (Rogue, Gambit, Deadpool and Else Bloodstone) were strategists. There are not so many strategist fans, because together with the lack of new heroes for their role, teams are more limited for this category. It combines into a less strategist network in As Vanguards matches is always difficult to come because of the pressure of the role, the teams with four duelists are frustrated.

These incomprehensible matches are mixed with concern about finishing and balance. While Netease pushed back to the idea that using EOMM – a form of matching, where the developer is trying to keep the players to attach their losses correctly while they are on the verge of evaluation – most of the community still feels that the match simply does not feel right. Unfortunately, the matches where one team is dominated than not, unfortunately, with the competitive game regime does not feel such a competitive majority. When it comes to balance, the community regularly asks why some heroes will not touch for a long time, such as the extremely long time that passes before the Luna is not defined. On the other hand, some Nerfs feel unnecessary, such as the latest update aimed at reducing the ultron recovery, although it is viable in triple support as it is.

And finally, there is perhaps the most harmful aspect MarvelAnd this is the community of the game. Toxicity is part of all online competing games with titles as League of Legends infamous for being newcomers to claim. However many Marvel Players feel as if punishments were not quite hard for those who are toxic in the cottage, leaving matches or throwing games. It is shocking for players that players throw the match purely because they do not like the hero who their teammates chose, which led to a waste of time and did not deserve lost SR. Heroes are already trying to bring newcomers over time, because the devoted players are too good in the game, which is difficult for occasional fun and catch up. Marvel It has this problem, but the problem is getting worse with how ugly players can be in everything from rating to a quick game, as this behavior can push occasional players very quickly.

Why Overwatch 2 prosper at the end of 2025

On the other hand, Overwatch 2 He has experienced several successes since the end. The most important of these is the game mode of the stadium, as if the design of the stadium was a short incorrect step, the strategic elements of the regime made it a great intervention in fans. Consistent accessories for experience such as a quick game on the stadium, maps, upgrades, heroes and fresh mechanics, have passed a long way to become an attractive alternative to normal Overwatch. Connect this major accessory with attractive events in season 18 that shower players in prey boxes as well as the correct system of character progression (something Marvel missing because there is little to chase the hero once he reaches the status of the lord) and it is clear why you can see why Overwatch It is doing well at the moment.

Second big thing Overwatch 2“Kindly is that the community is looking forward to. Recently team developer 4 made several references to improve Overwatch'With tradition and narration, if they want the game to shoot at all war, something that fans have been desperate to see for some time. In addition, there was something main for the season 20 and fans have a real belief that “another big thing” for the game actually deserves this nickname because of what the stadium has achieved. This was undoubtedly part of the motivation for confidence Marvel The creators of the content jumps back to Overwatch 2as not only do they see lower interest RivalsBut optimism for the future shooter Blizzard Hero is undeniable.

Overwatch 2 is also able to work together and regularly have attractive transitions with franchises as Persona, Gi joe, TransformersAnd others.

Part Overwatch 2Initial struggles can be added that developers have not listened, while in the last few months it seems that the opposite seems true. WITH Marvel“Although it is not clear what his own” another big thing will actually be because it will feel that the future period will be just the same. Plus, players feel they won't hear, be it because of the division or uncontrolled toxicity. Hopefully Marvel It can recover because the competitive scene Hero Stioter is a healthier environment for fans and developers.
