2XKO reportedly needed MAUs in the high hundreds of thousands, if not millions

GamesIndustry reported that Riot co-founder Marc Merrill said 2XKO would have needed monthly active users in the high hundreds of thousands, if not millions, to be sustainable. The report said active development ended in August because costs outpaced revenue and engagement stayed flat, though the free-to-play fighter was still playable and its servers were remaining online beyond 2026.
