Marvel Rivals launched to a strong start, boasting hundreds of thousands of concurrent Steam players, even as Overwatch 2 experienced a downturn. However, a significant and frustrating bug has cast a shadow over this success.
We previously reported on a performance issue affecting low-end PCs: low frame rates cause some heroes to move slower and deal reduced damage. The developers have acknowledged the bug and are actively working on a solution.

Unfortunately, a complete fix is proving challenging. Season 1 of Marvel Rivals will therefore include a temporary fix focused on improving movement mechanics. Resolving the damage issue will require more time, and a definitive timeline remains unavailable.
Consequently, our recommendation remains: prioritize maximum frame rate over graphical fidelity when playing Marvel Rivals. This will mitigate the performance disadvantage caused by the bug.
