Marvel Rivals' next update drastically reduces the game's install size on PC and console

In a world afflicted with ever-increasing storage and RAM costs, it's nice to see a game make a serious effort to reduce its footprint on your SSD. Cue Marvel Rivals. On PS5 and Xbox, you will see an install-size reduction of roughly 15GB - down from 73GB - whilst the PC version reduces by a whopping 40GB. This means we're getting a reduction of roughly 20 percent on consoles, whereas on PC the file size will shrink by over 57 percent.

Saving space. The PS5's SSD storage is a precious resource; if you don't upgrade it, you're left with a relatively small amount of space to play with, especially as high profile games have ballooned in size over the last few years. That being said, NetEase has some good news regarding its popular free-to-play superhero shooter, Marvel Rivals. Read the full article on pushsquare.com

Marvel Rivals players are airing their frustrations over Season 9's excessive "visual clutter" and other issues making it difficult to enjoy

Marvel Rivals has only been around for 18 months or so, but already we've reached Season 9. And with it comes a narrative arc focusing on Marvel characters like Apocalypse, perfectly timed to coincide with X-Men '97's season two. Marvel's Rivals also welcomed fireworks-throwing mutant Jubilee a few days ago, and while many players are digging the new hero, the update that introduced her has been heavily criticised by fans.
