As time goes by, it’s become more evident that the market for hero shooter games may not accommodate many successful titles. Since Overwatch became a global phenomenon in 2016, numerous games have attempted but ultimately failed to emulate its success. The past few years alone have seen several high-profile instances of these failures. For instance, Concord was recently one of the most significant missteps for PlayStation’s first party offerings. Meanwhile, Overwatch 2 boasts a robust and active player base, making it a successful game in that regard. However, Blizzard’s follow-up hero shooter has faced widespread criticism and backlash for numerous reasons, and it could be described as an underwhelming sequel at best.
