Marvel Rivals's initial launch was a resounding success, boasting hundreds of thousands of concurrent Steam players, overshadowing Overwatch 2's performance. However, a significant and frustrating bug has marred the experience.
We previously reported on a performance-related issue impacting lower-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.

Unfortunately, a complete fix proves challenging. Season 1 of Marvel Rivals will likely see an interim solution focusing on improved movement mechanics. Resolving the damage reduction issue will require more time, with no firm timeline for a complete resolution currently available.
Therefore, our recommendation remains: prioritize maximum frame rate over graphical fidelity in Marvel Rivals. This will ensure a level playing field and prevent in-game disadvantages.
