Marvel Rivals's initial 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 hero 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 complex. Therefore, Marvel Rivals Season 1 will see a temporary patch focusing on improved movement mechanics. Resolving the damage reduction issue will require more time, with no firm timeline for a complete resolution currently available.
Consequently, our recommendation remains: prioritize maximum frame rate over graphical fidelity in Marvel Rivals. This will prevent gameplay disadvantages caused by the bug.
