Overwatch 2 added the excellent Stadium mode, Perks, three generally liked heroes + maps this year. Communicative devs. And, for what I think it should be one of the defining deciders for the category, a playerbase that is generally pretty happy - an absolute rarity for a 2025 live service game.

I know I'm Overwatch brained, but that game had an exceptional year with a ton of huge additions, and the community is actually relatively content, too.

I always end up a touch more annoyed at that award in particular.
