It’s been just over a month since Overwatch 2 launched to the masses, and Activision-Blizzard’s latest financial report has shown the game did damn well in those first four weeks.

We already knew that the hero shooter’s sorta-sequel had amassed 25 million players in its first 10 days (opens in new tab), already close to tripling the original’s peak daily player count. As reported by Eurogamer (opens in new tab), Activision-Blizzard’s latest quarterly report (opens in new tab) revealed that the game managed to add another 10 million players on top of that count throughout the rest of October, “including many who were new to Overwatch.” The report also said that “player investment is also off to a strong start,” presumably talking about sales of the battle pass and cosmetics. Overwatch 2 appears to have managed to maintain its near-triple daily player count compared to its predecessor throughout the month, too.
