As long as Overwatch exists, any game that tries to do anything somewhat close to it is probably going to fail or not meet sales expectations.  If I were Boss Key, I would have tried my best to put Lawbreaker on the Switch specifically because they wouldn't have to compete with Overwatch on the Switch...unless Overwatch comes to the Switch, in which case they probably shouldn't put it on the Switch.

I thought Overwatch was really popular? If it's anywhere near as popular as it seems to be then there's definitely a market for similar games. The success of COD didn't make other FPS games fail. The success of WOW didn't make other MMOs fail. The success of LOL didn't make other MOBAs fail.

If anything it being super popular is going to help other similar games since people like similar experiences with a slightly different take to what they already enjoy.

Overwatch is popular. They're saying this because a lot of the alternatives aren't that popular(except the OG Team Fortress 2)
