Marvel Rivals frequently gets stuck at 99% loading? This guide offers solutions for PC players. Console users experiencing persistent issues may need to reinstall the game or try different 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 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. Some users have reported success with this method. Remember to re-enable your firewall after troubleshooting.
Game File Verification
Before a full reinstall, verify the game files' integrity. In Steam, right-click Marvel Rivals, select "Properties," then "Local Files," and finally "Verify Integrity of Game Files." This repairs corrupted game files, which could be causing the loading freeze.
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 Marvel Rivals is the final solution.
