The team shooter Marvel Rivals had a strong launch on PC in Steam. The peak online exceeded 600 thousand players, but the audience gradually began to decrease.
Recently, fans of Marvel Rivals have increasingly criticized the developers for balance, while Blizzard with Overwatch has become more active.
After a major update with new heroes, the online presence of Overwatch has noticeably increased. For the first time in two years, the project managed to surpass Marvel Rivals in daily peak online, as well as average online for the month.
According to Steam Charts data, Overwatch had an average online presence of 164 thousand players in February 2026, while Marvel Rivals had 152 thousand.
