Fix Marvel Rivals Loading Error (Stuck at 99%)

Marvel Rivals frequently gets stuck at 99% loading? This guide offers solutions for PC players. Console users may need to reinstall the game or switch servers.

Troubleshooting Marvel Rivals' 99% Loading Screen Freeze

Here are several fixes to try:

SSD Installation

Install Marvel Rivals on a Solid State Drive (SSD). While playable on a Hard Disk Drive (HDD), an SSD drastically reduces loading times and improves overall performance, potentially resolving the 99% loading issue.

Firewall Deactivation

Temporarily disabling your firewall (e.g., Windows Defender) might resolve the problem. Some users have reported success with this method. Remember to re-enable your firewall afterward.

Game File Verification

Before a complete reinstall, try verifying the game's files. In Steam, right-click Marvel Rivals, select "Properties," then "Local Files," and finally "Verify integrity of game files." This repairs corrupted game files, often fixing loading problems.

Graphics Driver Update

Ensure your graphics card drivers are up-to-date. While not always the cause, updated drivers optimize game performance.

Reinstallation (Last Resort)

If all else fails, reinstalling the game is the final solution.
