Blizzard has released some key figures from this past weekend's Overwatch League Grand Finals--and they're huge. The event brought in 10.8 million viewers worldwide, Blizzard said.

　　The Grand Finals consisted of two matches in two days. To put the figure into perspective, 10.8 million viewers is more than total number of viewers for all of the Week 1 matches earlier in the year. For the important 18-34 demographic, the Finals attracted an "average minute audience" of 605,013. With rebroadcast figures added in, the average minute audience for both days was more than 1 million, Blizzard said.
