Marvel Rivals finally has cheaters

Marvel Rivals, dubbed the "Overwatch killer," has enjoyed a hugely successful Steam launch, peaking at over 444,000 concurrent players on its first day – a number rivaling the population of Miami. Despite this success, the game isn't without its challenges.

A significant concern among players is the increasing number of cheaters employing various methods to gain an unfair advantage. These include auto-targeting for instant eliminations, wall-hacking, and one-hit kills. However, the community reports that NetEase Games' anti-cheat measures are proving effective in detecting and addressing this issue.

Optimization remains a key area for improvement. Users with graphics cards like the Nvidia GeForce 3050 have reported noticeable frame rate drops. Despite these performance issues, many players agree that Marvel Rivals offers an enjoyable and fair-to-play experience, particularly praising its user-friendly monetization system.

A standout feature is the non-expiring battle pass. This removes the pressure of needing to constantly grind, a welcome change for many players and a potential key factor in the game's positive reception.
