Marvel Rivals Load Stalled at 99%: Fix Unveiled

Marvel Rivals: Troubleshooting the 99% Loading Screen Freeze

Marvel Rivals, a free-to-play PvP hero shooter, generally performs well across platforms. However, some players experience a frustrating 99% loading screen freeze. This guide offers solutions, primarily focused on PC users. Console players experiencing persistent issues may need to reinstall the game or try alternative servers.

Solutions to the 99% Loading Freeze:

• SSD Installation: Playing Marvel Rivals from a Solid State Drive (SSD) is highly recommended. While playable from a Hard Disk Drive (HDD), an SSD drastically reduces loading times and improves overall performance, potentially resolving the 99% loading issue.

• Firewall Deactivation: Disabling your firewall (e.g., Windows Defender) might resolve the problem for some users. Remember to re-enable it afterward.

• Game File Verification: Before a complete reinstall, try verifying the game files' integrity. In Steam, right-click the game, select "Properties," and then "Verify Integrity of Game Files." This repairs corrupted game files, potentially fixing the loading freeze.

• Graphics Driver Update: Ensure your graphics card drivers are updated to the latest version. While not always directly impacting game functionality, updated drivers optimize performance.

• Reinstallation (Last Resort): If all else fails, reinstalling the game is a final solution.
