Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls‘ launch weekend has been filled with so many PC issues that even famed fighting game community (FGC) content creator Maximilian Christiansen (a.k.a. Maximilian Dood) couldn’t help but uninstall the game on stream.
If publisher Sony Interactive Entertainment and developer Arc System Works weren’t already sounding alarm bells, they should be now. Maximilian Dood, who has earned his place as one of the go-to creators for fighting game content, uninstalled Marvel Tokon after spending just two days with the 4v4 superhero tag fighter, saying its PC port was “really s**t.”
“This is bad, chat. I don’t think I can play this anymore,” he said during an August 7 livestream titled “Last day with PC version, sheesh.” “It’s making me like the game significantly less. The game is un-fun when we have to deal with all this. It’s un-fun. It’s fun coming up with solutions and stuff like that to issues, to combat, but you can’t do anything. You just have to watch it stutter like crazy.”
Marvel Tokon launched for PC and PlayStation 5 last week, August 6, and while those on PS5 don’t seem to be running into any trouble, those on PC have reported nothing but. Most have taken their concerns to its Steam page, where it quickly plummeted to just 44% positive reviews in all languages, granting it a “Mixed” rating. Now, after Arc System Works promised to investigate some of those issues, the situation is even more dire, with 41% in all languages and a “Mostly Negative” 39% in English.
Maximilian Dood’s very public issues with the PC port bring the trouble to the front of the conversation. As the weekend comes to an end without any proper fixes, it looks like Marvel Tokon will have to put in the work to bring back fans on that platform.
