Both <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/marvel-rivals\/\" target=\"_blank\">Marvel Rivals<\/a> and Overwatch are excellent superhero shooters, and the market is large enough to accommodate both games. NetEase will strive to meet the diverse demands of their respective player communities.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>While Overwatch 2 initially became inaccessible in China thanks to Blizzard and NetEase being unable to agree on a new contract, other Blizzard games like Hearthstone and World of Warcraft returned much sooner. While this was probably just due to licensing complications, some players have formed a conspiracy theory of their own.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In my opinion the biggest reason why Overwatch&#8217;s comeback has been delayed that much, is that NetEase wanted to ensure it had the spotlight for that period of time, and also counted on the Overwatch hate train to gain traction,&#8221; a <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Competitiveoverwatch\/comments\/1hwfse6\/comment\/m60wyzt\/?utm_source=share&#038;utm_medium=web3x&#038;utm_name=web3xcss&#038;utm_term=1&#038;utm_content=share_button\" target=\"_blank\">player says<\/a>. &#8220;But that&#8217;s an opinion, nothing I know so far proves this aside from timeline coincidence.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s been a lot of comparison between Overwatch 2 and Marvel Rivals. Back when Marvel Rivals was still in beta a lot of players were seeing similarities between hero abilities. Magneto, Black Panther, and Hulk all seemed eerily similar to Sigma, Genji, and D.Va, and while that&#8217;s not exactly changed, Marvel Rivals is much more chaotic than Overwatch 2 and so <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/third-person-shooter\/marvel-rivals-isnt-just-an-overwatch-2-rip-off-and-that-sentiment-does-both-games-a-disservice\/\" target=\"_blank\">does play differently<\/a>. But that didn&#8217;t stop the former Blizzard president Mike Ybarra from alluding to the fact that <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/fps\/former-blizzard-president-thinks-marvel-rivals-is-a-rip-off-of-overwatch-and-that-black-widow-is-a-copy-of-widowmaker-or-maybe-hes-joking-its-impossible-to-tell\/\" target=\"_blank\">NetEase copied Widowmaker&#8217;s design for Black Widow<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Despite an initial boost in Marvel Rivals players compared to Overwatch 2, both games seem to be doing well right now. <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/fps\/overwatch-2-achieves-the-improbable-clawing-back-a-mixed-rating-in-recent-steam-reviews-after-a-well-received-perks-update\/\" target=\"_blank\">Overwatch 2 clawed back a &#8216;Mixed&#8217; Steam review rating<\/a> after a really <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/fps\/overwatch-2-is-getting-radical-changes-that-might-finally-help-that-2-make-sense-starting-with-a-third-person-mode-and-over-160-hero-perks\/\" target=\"_blank\">well received perks update<\/a>, and Marvel Rivals has kept a pretty steady <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/steamdb.info\/app\/2767030\/charts\/#1m\" target=\"_blank\">Steam player count<\/a> of around 300,000 for the last month.<\/p>\n<p>Both games may be hero shooters, but in reality they&#8217;re different enough to attract separate crowds. Marvel Rivals is chaotic fun, with loads of broken heroes who&#8217;ve all just been thrown together without much thought given to balancing out abilities, while Overwatch 2 is more consistent and competitive with better balance patches coupled with a new and interesting perk system. I enjoy both for different reasons, and odds are most other players will too.<\/p>\n<div class=\"product\"><a data-dimension112=\"27cbcbb5-1ec1-422a-879e-0c47bd69494b\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"Marvel Rivals tier list\" data-dimension48=\"Marvel Rivals tier list\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:431px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:100.00%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"FunBhJw72viDpvnP7uFZu\" name=\"marvel rivals iron man\" caption=\"\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/the-market-is-large-enough-to-accommodate-both-games-netease-is-confident-it-can-make-space-for-marvel-rivals-and-overwatch-2.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"431\" height=\"431\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" credit=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/third-person-shooter\/marvel-rivals-tier-list-best-characters\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-dimension112=\"27cbcbb5-1ec1-422a-879e-0c47bd69494b\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"Marvel Rivals tier list\" data-dimension48=\"Marvel Rivals tier list\" data-dimension25=\"\"><strong>Marvel Rivals tier list<\/strong><\/a>: Best characters for each role<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/third-person-shooter\/marvel-rivals-ranks-explained\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Marvel Rivals ranks<\/strong><\/a>: How to climb in competitive<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/third-person-shooter\/marvel-rivals-units\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Marvel Rivals units<\/strong><\/a>: How to earn the currency<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/third-person-shooter\/marvel-rivals-codes\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Marvel Rivals codes<\/strong><\/a>: Grab free gear and more<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/third-person-shooter\/marvel-rivals-review\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Marvel Rivals review<\/strong><\/a>: Hero shooter report<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/third-person-shooter\/the-market-is-large-enough-to-accommodate-both-games-netease-is-confident-it-can-make-space-for-marvel-rivals-and-overwatch-2\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Overwatch 2 announced that it would be returning to the Chinese region right at the beginning of the year, with NetEase and Blizzard coming to a new agreement for a contract which would allow players to access the game again.
