Marvel Rivals' FPS Pay-to-Win Bug Acknowledged, Fix on the Way

Author:Kristen Update:Feb 25,2025

Marvel Rivals launched strongly, 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 hero movement speed and damage output at low frame rates. The developers have acknowledged the bug and are actively working on a solution.

Resolving this complex issue requires time. Consequently, Marvel Rivals Season 1 will see an interim fix primarily addressing movement mechanics. A complete resolution to the damage reduction problem will take longer, with no firm timeline currently available.

Therefore, our recommendation remains: prioritize maximum frame rate over graphical fidelity in Marvel Rivals to avoid in-game disadvantages.
