Why would you assume console versions of OW2 are doing better?

No one plays OW2 on Steam. It’s a Bnet game.

Well, one of the reasons is it's new and Marvel..whether it holds remains to be seen.

Another reason is Overwatch 2 has struggled of late are balance issues. 5v5 has its fair share of flaws and there's a pretty large part of the community who want 6v6 back, which Marvel Rivals has.

5v5 is more balanced than 6v6 ever was or probably will be.

For what it's worth, I've never seen anyone playing OW2 on steam. Everyone I see launching it is on battle.net. I also play it from there.

I did something I never did before.
I bought a battle pass...

"Launching in 2025: Overwatch Classic™ - enjoy the game exactly how it was at launch. We've finally removed all the bullshit we added over the years and made the game fun again!"

I'd say OW2 has about 4x more players on bnet than Steam. They're doing more than fine.
