It’s not hard to see where Marvel Rivals has taken inspiration from Overwatch. From the simple concept of a 6v6 ability-focused multiplayer game to certain characters like Hawkeye and Black Panther being very similar to Hanzo and Genji, it’s clear that NetEase was at the very least inspired by Blizzard’s Overwatch concepts. But NetEase has nearly a decade of hindsight. It can look back at what Overwatch did well, yes, but also what it could’ve improved on and what the game was lacking when it first launched.
