Can I Run Marvel Rivals on My PC / Laptop?

An Intel Core i5-6600K or AMD Ryzen 5 1600X processor, a GTX 1060 / RX 580 / Arc A380 graphics card, and 16 GB of RAM. Full details are in the table above.

For 1080p on high settings, NetEase recommends an i5-10400 or Ryzen 5 5600X, an RTX 2060 Super / RX 5700 XT / Arc A750, and 16 GB of RAM.

Yes, and it is also the official minimum, not a suggestion. This is a live-service shooter streaming content in the background, so 8 GB will bring stutter and occasional crashes.

About 70 GB to install. Seasonal updates and patches push the total higher over time, so expect the folder to pass 100 GB eventually. Keep some headroom free.

Mostly Unreal Engine 5 shader compilation after an update, plus VRAM pressure on cards near the minimum. Play one full match after any patch or driver update so the shader cache finishes building, and turn Lumen down if the stutter continues.

Lumen is Unreal Engine 5's real-time lighting system, and it is the single most expensive setting in the game. Turning it off can roughly double your frame rate on a mid-range card, with only a modest change to how the lighting looks.

Yes. DLSS on NVIDIA cards and FSR on AMD or older NVIDIA cards are both in the settings menu, and NVIDIA Frame Generation is available on RTX 40-series cards for an extra boost.

Yes. A DirectX 12 capable graphics card is required, and there is no DirectX 11 fallback.

Yes, it is free to play, and being free does not change the requirements. It still needs the same GTX 1060 class hardware and 16 GB of RAM as any other Unreal Engine 5 game of its size.

Graphics card first. If you are below a GTX 1060 or RX 580, that upgrade alone fixes most of the problem. If your card already meets the minimum but you still see stutter, add RAM to 16 GB and move the install to an SSD before spending on a new GPU.

It will run. The RTX 3050 meets Marvel Rivals's minimum, which means 1080p on low to medium and a smoother result once you lower a couple of options.

Underpowered here. The GTX 1650 sits below Marvel Rivals's minimum, so expect the lowest settings and a frame rate to match. Playable only at 1080p Low or 720p, often below 40 fps and VRAM-limited.

Yes, though keep expectations modest. The GTX 1060 6GB clears Marvel Rivals's minimum, so plan on 1080p at low to medium and trim a setting or two for a steady frame rate. About 38 to 40 fps at 1080p High, closer to 60 on Medium with Lumen off.

Underpowered here. The RX 580 sits below Marvel Rivals's minimum, so expect the lowest settings and a frame rate to match. Around 35 to 45 fps at 1080p on Low to Medium settings.

That is more than enough. The RTX 4060 clears Marvel Rivals's recommended requirement, so aim for high at 1080p or step up to 1440p. Roughly 65 to 90 fps at 1080p Ultra depending on the Lumen setting.

Yes, with room to spare. Marvel Rivals recommends less than the RTX 3060 offers, so expect smooth 1080p high and a playable 1440p. About 60 fps at 1080p Ultra, or past 110 with Lumen turned off.

The RTX 2060 is a strong fit for Marvel Rivals. It lands at or above the recommended spec, so high 1080p is comfortable and 1440p works. A steady 60 fps at 1080p Medium to High, no Lumen changes needed.

Fine for a lighter setup. The GTX 1660 clears Marvel Rivals's minimum, so target 1080p low to medium and adjust down for a steady rate.

Runnable. The GTX 1660 Super covers Marvel Rivals's minimum, meaning 1080p low to medium and a smoother feel after a small settings drop.

Playable, yes. The RX 6600 passes Marvel Rivals's minimum bar, so aim for low to medium at 1080p and drop settings if the frame rate dips. About 50 to 60 fps at 1080p Medium, similar territory to an RTX 2060.

Playable, yes. The GTX 1660 Ti passes Marvel Rivals's minimum bar, so aim for low to medium at 1080p and drop settings if the frame rate dips.

Easily. With the RTX 3060 Ti you are past Marvel Rivals's recommended tier, which means high settings at 1080p and a genuine shot at 1440p. Around 90 to 100 fps at 1080p High, and 60 fps or more at 1440p.

Easily. With the RTX 4050 you are past Marvel Rivals's recommended tier, which means high settings at 1080p and a genuine shot at 1440p.

Not really. The GTX 1050 Ti falls under Marvel Rivals's minimum card, so you are looking at very low settings and low frame rates, if it starts at all.

The RTX 4070 is a strong fit for Marvel Rivals. It lands at or above the recommended spec, so high 1080p is comfortable and 1440p works. Past 100 fps at 1080p High with Lumen off, and comfortable at 1440p Ultra.

NetEase has not shipped a macOS build, M-series chip or otherwise. GeForce Now cloud streaming is the workable path if you're on a Mac.

Only the newer, faster integrated chips, and only at Low settings around 1080p or below. Intel Iris Xe and AMD's Radeon 780M can manage casual matches around 30 to 45 fps on Low; older integrated graphics fall short of the GTX 1060 / RX 580 minimum entirely.

There's no dedicated GPU on a Chromebook that clears the minimum, so cloud streaming through GeForce Now or something similar is what actually gets Marvel Rivals onto the screen.

Steam Deck is rated Playable, one step below Valve's Verified rating, and a realistic target is around 40 fps on Low settings for casual Quick Match play. ROG Ally and Legion Go, with faster APUs, generally clear that and can push closer to 60 fps on Low with FSR.

Yes. Marvel Rivals is playable through GeForce Now, which is also the practical way to play it on a Mac, Chromebook, or any PC below the minimum, since the game runs on remote hardware and streams video to you.

You want at least an RTX 4070 Ti or RX 7900 XT with DLSS or FSR on Quality for a steady 60 fps at 4K. An RTX 4090 handles 4K High comfortably and holds around 55 to 60 fps at native 4K Ultra.

An RTX 3060 Ti or RX 6700 XT class card holds 60 fps or more at 1440p on high settings, especially with Lumen off. Weaker cards can still handle 1440p by dropping to Medium and turning on upscaling.

The recommended-tier card, an RTX 2060 Super or RX 5700 XT class GPU, holds 60 fps at 1080p high settings. On a weaker card, turning Lumen off is the single biggest way to reach 60.

At 1080p, an RTX 3060 class card handles Ultra around 60 fps, more with Lumen off. NetEase has not published an official Ultra spec, so treat these as benchmark-based targets rather than a guaranteed tier.

Yes. An SSD is not mandatory, but it noticeably shortens load times and reduces the shader-compile stutter you hit right after patches. A hard drive still works, just slower and stutterier.

No. The official minimum is 16 GB. Running on 8 GB brings stutter and occasional crashes, since the game streams live-service content in the background even mid-match.

6 GB is enough at 1080p on Medium to High settings. 8 GB gives comfortable headroom at 1440p or with Ultra textures. Cards with 4 GB or less need to stay on Low textures.

Yes, within limits. At the minimum of a GTX 1060 or RX 580, 16 GB of RAM, and Low to Medium settings, expect somewhere around 40 to 60 fps at 1080p depending on whether Lumen is on.

That falls below the official minimum, which starts at an i5-6600K or Ryzen 5 1600X. An i3 or Ryzen 3 chip can still boot the game, but expect CPU-bound frame drops in crowded team fights even if your GPU has room to spare.

Work down this list: a card weaker than the GTX 1060 / RX 580 floor, RAM under 16 GB, a stale GPU driver, or launching mid-patch while shaders are still compiling in the background. That last one usually resolves itself after one full match.

It's on both consoles. Series X gets a 120 fps High Frame Rate Mode for players with a 120Hz screen, while Series S caps out at 60 fps for its visual settings. Neither Xbox One nor PS4 got a version.

Yes. PS5 also has a 120 fps High Frame Rate Mode alongside a higher-fidelity 60 fps mode. There is no PS4 version.

No. There is no Switch or Switch 2 version. This page covers the PC release.

Unofficially, yes, through Proton, since its anti-cheat is not the kernel-level type that usually blocks Linux. NetEase does not officially support Linux, and early on some Linux and Mac players were mistakenly banned for playing through emulation before those bans were reversed. Treat native Linux play as unsupported even though it generally works.

Yes, comfortably above the minimum. Expect somewhere around 70 to 90 fps at 1080p on Medium to High with Lumen off.

Yes. It sits above the recommended tier for raw power and should hold 80 fps or more at 1080p High, though its older architecture benefits less from FSR than newer cards.

Yes, well above the recommended RTX 2060 Super. Expect around 90 to 100 fps at 1080p High, and 60 fps or more at 1440p Medium.

Yes, easily. It clears 100 fps at 1080p Ultra with Lumen on, and well past that with Lumen off, which makes it a solid pick for competitive high-refresh play.

Yes, with plenty of headroom. It comfortably holds well over 100 fps at 1080p and strong frame rates at 1440p Ultra, and it's a reasonable starting point for 4K with upscaling.

Yes. It sits squarely in 4K territory for this game, holding 60 fps or better at 4K High with DLSS Quality, and well over 100 fps at 1080p or 1440p.

Yes, easily the strongest option available. Benchmarks show it running 1080p in the 150 to 240 fps range depending on settings, around 86 fps at 1440p Ultra with DLAA, and roughly 57 to 75 fps at native 4K Ultra to High.

Yes, comfortably above recommended. Expect performance close to an RTX 3060 Ti: roughly 90 to 100 fps at 1080p High and 60 fps or more at 1440p.

Yes, well above what this game needs. It performs in the same class as an RTX 4070 Ti to RTX 4080, so 60 fps or more at 4K with DLSS Quality is realistic, and high competitive frame rates at 1080p or 1440p are not a concern.

Marginally. Iris Xe can manage Low settings around 720p to 1080p for roughly 30 to 40 fps, below the smooth range most players want, but enough for casual matches.

Better than most integrated graphics, since it is the chip in newer handhelds like the ROG Ally. Expect around 40 to 50 fps at 1080p Low, similar to what the Steam Deck manages.
