Marvel Rivals Devs Aware of FPS Pay-to-Win Bug, Fix Forthcoming

by Claire Jan 28,2025

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.

Previously reported, low-end PCs experiencing low frame rates result in slower hero movement and reduced damage output. The developers have acknowledged this issue and are actively working on a resolution.

Resolving this complex problem requires significant effort. Consequently, Season 1 of Marvel Rivals will feature an interim fix primarily addressing movement mechanics. A complete fix for the damage reduction issue will take longer, with no definitive timeline currently available.

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