Marvel Rivals finally has cheaters

Many gamers resort to cheating to gain an unfair advantage in Marvel Rivals, employing tactics like auto-targeting for instant eliminations or shooting through walls for one-hit kills. This cheating problem is reportedly escalating.

However, player feedback suggests NetEase Games' anti-cheat measures are proving effective, successfully identifying and flagging suspicious activity within the game.

Dubbed the potential "Overwatch killer," Marvel Rivals has enjoyed a highly successful Steam launch, boasting over 444,000 concurrent players on its first day – a number comparable to the population of Miami.

While optimization remains a key concern, with frame rate drops reported on cards like the Nvidia GeForce 3050, many players praise the game's enjoyable gameplay and fair monetization. A significant positive is the non-expiring nature of battle passes, eliminating the pressure of needing to constantly grind. This feature alone could significantly influence player perception of the game.
