Top online games, in no particular order.
Overwatch +30M
Overwatch is our #1 online video game. This game came out in 2016, but don’t overlook it. Over 30 million players daily visit Overwatch’s frenzied Battleground. Overwatch allows players to choose from tank to support roles, like Team Fortress 2.
The game includes capturing the flag and escorting cargo to its destination. Overwatch’s esports scene is still emerging after a year on the market. Overwatch is expected to continue gaining popularity based on recent competition attendance.
If you play online games, you’ve undoubtedly played this one. Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is the latest Counter-Strike game. Since its launch in 2012, CS: GO has become the standard first-person shooter for competitive esports. Valve, the studio behind Half-Life, Portal, and DOTA 2, made CS: GO popular on Steam. The game sold 25 million copies in 2016, making it one of the most successful online games.
Fast-paced action and excellent graphics attract players. Teams use tactical weapons and accessories to plant bombs and finish missions. Spin-off games, like a surf-and-gun game, boost the game’s replayability.
League of Legends users 100 million+
First-person shooters aren’t the most popular online games. League of Legends shows not everyone likes shooting. Others prefer strategic thinking. League of Legends is a MOBA, not an FPS (multiplayer online battle arena). Two teams compete to demolish each other’s base and win. Easy to learn and play, but challenging to master.
League of Legends has over 100 million monthly active gamers. During the 2017 World Championship esports competition, Samsung Galaxy won the Summoner’s trophy. League of Legends is a popular online game with a global fanbase.
