“Some people just hate-play the game”: Overwatch 2’s Latest Move To Counter Marvel Rivals Shows the Duality of Blizzard Fans
No one could’ve ever predicted the success Marvel Rivals would go on to achieve. The hero shooter developed by NetEase Games launched with a staggering player count and managed to surpass it with the first season. Unlike the rest of the live service games, it has managed to sustain those players much better as well.
