If you're a fan of *Marvel Rivals*, the free-to-play PvP hero shooter that's compatible across multiple platforms, you might have encountered the frustrating issue of the game getting stuck at 99% during loading. Don't worry, we've got you covered with some effective fixes, especially if you're playing on PC. For console players facing this issue persistently, you might need to delete and reinstall the game or try switching servers.
For the best performance, consider installing and running *Marvel Rivals* on a solid-state drive (SSD). While the game can function on a traditional hard disk drive (HDD), using an SSD can drastically reduce load times and enhance the overall smoothness of gameplay. Transferring the game to an SSD might resolve your loading issues and provide a more seamless experience.
Some players have found success in resolving the 99% loading issue by temporarily disabling their firewall. Whether you're using Windows Defender or another firewall program on your PC, turning it off might help *Marvel Rivals* load properly.
Before you decide to completely uninstall and reinstall the game, try a simpler fix. Right-click on *Marvel Rivals* in your Steam library, go to Properties, and select 'Verify Integrity of Game Files'. This process will check for and repair any corrupted files, which could be the root of your loading problem.
Lastly, ensure your graphics card drivers are up to date. While this might not directly affect whether the game loads, having the latest drivers can optimize performance and potentially resolve the 99% loading issue. Check your GPU manufacturer's website for the latest updates.
If none of these solutions work, reinstalling the game might be your last resort. We hope these tips help you get back to enjoying *Marvel Rivals* without any hitches.
