Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls<\/a> is out today, but PC players are experiencing some problems with the game that their PlayStation 5 counterparts don’t have have to deal with. Developer Arc System Works noted that the PC port had issues during the open beta last month and it pledged to fix them<\/a> with a patch on day one. However, PC players are reporting that Marvel Tokon is still suffering from the same problems that made it nearly unplayable during the beta.<\/p>\n

As explained by a player on Reddit<\/a>, Marvel Tokon on PC is plagued by dropped frame rates and stutter regardless of the specs of the machines being used. “It’s a problem that [Arc System has] to fix on their side, you can’t do anything about it,” writes Davids Symphony. “You could be running a 5090 with a 9800X3D at the lowest settings and it’ll still happen.”<\/p>\n

Players who were hoping to take Marvel Tokon for a spin on Steam Deck have also been disappointed to find that it can’t even launch in Steam OS\/Linux.<\/p>\n

“The best part is the community manager on discord saying that, ‘Asking for Linux support is like asking for a Switch port,'” writes Rinnekaton on Reddit<\/a>. “The game uses EAC, and I don’t even need to mention that EAC is widely supported on Linux. Linux support for EAC being a simple toggle (direct words from Valve themselves) is common knowledge at this point. In no way is it like porting to Switch.”<\/p>\n

While it’s unknown if or when Arc Systems will address Marvel Tokon’s compatibility with Steam Deck, the developer has shared the details about its day-one patch. In the meantime, Arc Systems has unveiled a roadmap for Marvel Tokon’s upcoming DLC<\/a>. The first new fighter slated to be added to the lineup this fall is Phoenix Cyclops, a cosmic-powered incarnation of the character from 2012’s Avengers vs. X-Men crossover event. In that story, Cyclops, White Queen, Namor, Colossus, and Magik were each given a portion of the Phoenix Force that remade them into god-like beings. If the game follows a similar direction, other members of the Phoenix 5 could be added later.<\/p>\n

The current patch notes are below.<\/p>\n

Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls Day One Patch Notes<\/h2>\n

Performance\u202fOptimizations (Primarily for the PC SKUs)<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Removed unnecessary character animation updates from being performed; resulting in a reduced CPU load.<\/li>\n
  • Made improvements to alleviate the load on the user interface update.<\/li>\n
  • Made improvements to address an issue where performance significantly deteriorated when running applications that use overlays or capture video. OBS Studio: Video capture via Game Capture & Discord: Overlays, Video Capture.<\/li>\n
  • Added an anti-aliasing option to the automatic graphics quality setting to ensure that the appropriate anti-aliasing option is applied based on performance and prevents unintended load increases.<\/li>\n
  • Fixed an issue that enabled unintended anti-aliasing plug-ins (e.g. DLSS, FSR, XeSS).<\/li>\n
  • Also included a feature to the custom graphics quality settings and effect options that allow you to change the update frequency of the stage background characters.<\/li>\n
  • Selecting medium quality of low quality will reduce the update frequency and slightly reduce the load on the CPU.<\/li>\n
  • Have set the prompt inquiring about performing a shade warm-up at startup to ON by default, making it easier to find and perform a shader warm-up.<\/li>\n
  • Fixed an issue that caused the shader warm-up to run unintentionally at startup.<\/li>\n
  • Steam Version: Fixed an issue that caused a delay in sending input data during online matches; resulting in improved online match performance.<\/li>\n
  • PS5 Version: Implemented additional measure to mitigate input lag.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Other Fixes<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    • Game Screen – Fixed an issue where the game would automatically switch between monitors on setups that featured multiple monitors.<\/li>\n
    • Online Lobby – Fixed an issue where some players would become invisible after viewing rankings in Ranked Mode and then enter the Online Lobby.<\/li>\n
    • Ranked Mode – Fixed an issue where the screen would become distorted when a large number of digits were displayed.<\/li>\n
    • Game Server Connectivity – Improved communication stability between the client and the game server.<\/li>\n
    • Mouse – Fixed an issue where the game would sometimes crash when using the mouse too quickly in the game’s menus.<\/li>\n
    • Text Optimization – Fixed an issue where performance was significantly reduced when large amounts of text were on screen; particularly when set to Arabic or Thai.<\/li>\n
    • Connectivity- Fixed an issue where the game would become unplayable if the network connection was lost during the Challenger Alert screen.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Gameplay Adjustments<\/strong><\/p>\n

        \n
      • Input Optimization – Changed the input prioritization to 236 < 623 < 236 after 41236, allowing for a more accurate activation of 623 when using the input 6236.<\/li>\n
      • Danger – Revised the input handling for ground dashes. Have made it possible to cancel into a skill from a ground dash to make it less likely for aerial special moves to be accidentally triggered.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
