MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls

The launch was pretty rough, but now it is a fantastic fighting game. Haven't had this much fun since the launch of DBFZ

Characters are awesome, but fighting players online with 7 or 8 rollback frames on a somewhat regular basis is pretty frustrating. Game runs better on PC than before, but there's no reason to include anti-cheat for a game like this. Visual clutter is pretty high at time, too. I think I enjoy GGST's pace/style more, but we'll see how this one develops over the years.

I don't normally write reviews nowadays but this one hurts a bit, don't bother for now. You can tell the game was made with care and passion but ultimately its let down by its online performance on PC thanks to multiple layers of DRM and Sony related background services. Game runs fine on my end but as soon as you hit online you're hit with microstutters and 8F rollback spikes, and you can't even run it on Linux systems at all due to its anti cheat even though this one completely supports it.

The game's performance was very bad not matter how many adjustments I made. All other games on my PC perform just fine. After the last update 8/28, the game will no longer launch after the splash screen. Reinstall did not help.

Absolutely inexcusable performance. Incredibly disappointed as someone with literally thousands of hours across Arcsys' previous titles. This was by far my most anticipated game of the year, however I cannot properly run the game at 60FPS no matter how low I turn my settings. It would not be an exaggeration to say this is the worst performing AAA game I have ever had the displeasure of experiencing. Many PS5 players are disabling Crossplay so that they can get good matches with other PS5 users as so many PC's cannot properly run the game and ruin the experience for both sides.. Highly recommended if you enjoy the Steam refund process. Otherwise buy on PS5 until this embarrassment of a "port" is fixed. The recommended specs feel like false advertising, though I'm including my specs with my review as I realize this is this is all anecdotal and not everyone is experiencing issues so hopefully it can be of some help.

amazing game, love the characters, the visuals, the gameplay, it's amazing don't buy it. wait until sony gets their ♥♥♥♥ together. the game runs by decrypting files every single frame, on one single thread. and the drm is horrific. without exaggeration, the cracked version of the game runs *multiple times better* than the proper version. sucks cuz it's clear arcsys put their whole arcussy into this, it's just dragged down by sony being ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ braindead. i'll update this review when all this gets fixed, but until then? don't bother we have to kill sony

very solid game but does not run very well
