Marvel Rivals has shaken up the hero shooter genre, prompting Overwatch 2 director Aaron Keller to acknowledge a competitive shift. He noted the game's unique features compel the Overwatch team to innovate rather than play it safe. Keller also addressed the mixed perceptions surrounding OW2, recognizing the disconnect between expectations and reality. He expressed hope that upcoming changes in Overwatch 2, including new gameplay modes and elements like loot boxes, will resonate with players and enhance the game's reception in the community.
It's forcing Overwatch 2's devs to really think about pushing the boat out, and making things 'no longer about playing it safe'.
I hope those people really see that with a lot of the things we've been sharing lately, and hopefully that can spread out to the broader community as well.
