Blizzard Announces ‘Overwatch’ Has More Than 25 Million Players

overwatch 25 million players

Man. Overwatch is popular. Like, way fucking popular. I should play Overwatch. But I have anxiety problems, and the sheer amount of heroes intimidates me.

Last we’d heard, online shooter Overwatch had 15 million players. A little over three months later, and that number’s gone up by quite a bit. Developer Blizzard has just announced that the current count has crossed 25 million across PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. It’s pretty impressive and given all the moves Blizzard has made (announcing an eSports incubator, frequent seasonal events and doling out additional charactersfor free) perhaps it isn’t surprising that the number of players is growing. Now, if some of them would actually help move the payload we’d really be in business.
