The juggernaut known as Overwatch continues to roll.  Three years ago, you'd have been hard pressed to find anyone who predicted Overwatch would be bigger than Blizzard's other multiplayer first-person shooter, Destiny.  But after a record-breaking beta in May, the writing was on the wall.  Now, the game is at a staggering 20 million players just 5 months after launch. Now, this doesn't mean there are 20 million current players as there's a big difference between being registered and being active. 

Today, Overwatch's first PvE event, Halloween Terror launched.  If you're an Overwatch enthusiasts, let us know what you think in the comment section below.
