Fixes and Optimizations

All Platforms

Fixed an issue where pressing shortcut keys for spray/emotes didn't work on first launch. Previously, players had to open the selection wheel once before these shortcuts activated.
Fixed several terrain issues that could cause characters to sometimes become stuck or clip into strange areas. 2. Resolved various problems with broken collisions, floating objects, etc. 3. Addressed multiple map sound effect issues.

Flux Frequencies: Fixed a bug where Emma Frost's Telepathic Pulse could not be maintained and failed to gain energy when striking Groot's walls. Now, her attack hits with tree-mend-ous power! 2. Webbed Wonders: Resolved an issue with the speed and effectiveness of multiple Peni Parker's overlayed webs stacking, which converted overflow healing into Bonus Health beyond expectations. No more unexpected health from this "web of deceit"! 3. Loki's Layered Lunacy: Fixed an issue in Loki's Regeneration Domain where those of his self and his illusions could continuously stack healing beyond expectations. The only thing stacking now is Loki's charm, not his healing. Mischief managed! 4. Strange's Portal Puzzle: Fixed a glitch causing Doctor Strange's portals to sometimes send heroes to unexpected locations. No more sudden detours into unexpected side quests! 5. Punisher's Phantom Focus: Resolved a bug in the Warrior Falls spawn room where The Punisher's passive skill could inadvertently reveal enemy outlines. Justice now strikes without unnecessary spoilers! 6. Tangled Webs: Fixed an issue at the Frozen Airfield where webs from Peni Parker's Ultimate Ability would sometimes drop beneath the terrain when the stage started to move. Her arsenal of tech and webs now stays on target. 7. Vibranium Velocity: Fixed a bug with Black Panther's Spirit Rend where, after using it to down Winter Soldier in mid-Trooper's Fist, subsequent Spirit Rend uses could behave erratically. T'Challa's pounce now hits with the unwavering precision of a Wakandan king, swift and relentless! 8. Panther's Stealthy Surge: Addressed a rare issue where, under poor network conditions, if Black Panther unleashed his Ultimate Ability immediately after ending wall-climbing, it occasionally faltered while still consuming energy. His attack now as smooth and unstoppable as a panther's prowl through the night. 9. Cosmic Character Conundrum: Fixed a deceptive exploit in Doom Match where Adam Warlock could switch characters post-respawn using a special maneuver. His cosmic transformations now stick strictly to the realms of destiny and stellar justice!

Fixed issues with the experimental "Switch Shader Compilation Mode" where screen distortions or unprepared materials appeared black under certain conditions.

Console

Fixed an issue on PS5 where the selection wheel button mapping couldn't be remapped. 2. Fixed a minor area in the hero list interface where the right analog stick didn't scroll as intended.

The Marvel Rivals universe is ever-evolving, and we have plenty more surprises and updates on the horizon. Stay tuned to our official announcements for more!
