Marvel Rivals Quells Pay-to-Win Bug Fears

by Patrick Jan 11,2025

Marvel Rivals's launch was a resounding success, boasting hundreds of thousands of concurrent Steam players, while simultaneously impacting Overwatch 2's player base. However, a significant and frustrating bug has emerged.

We previously reported on a performance issue affecting low-end PCs: reduced movement speed and damage output at low frame rates. The developers have acknowledged this bug and are actively working on a solution.

Unfortunately, a complete fix is proving challenging. Therefore, Marvel Rivals Season 1 will initially see a temporary patch focusing on improved movement mechanics. Resolving the damage reduction issue will require more time, with no definitive timeframe for a complete resolution currently available.

Consequently, our recommendation remains: prioritize maximum frame rate over graphical fidelity in Marvel Rivals to avoid gameplay disadvantages.
