Potential fix for people that are experiencing crashes.
I found a person on the these forums that discovered a way to stop his game from crashing, and I thought I should share this here.

I had many performance issues since release. Constant stutters and frame dropping from 120 all the way to 40 fps and sometimes even crashing. Recently, I upgraded my PC and it includes a 14th Gen Intel Core i5. As soon as I launch the game on my new PC it crashes right after the anti-cheat loads. It kept giving me the same error code:

Fatal error: [File:H:\workspace\S1_1_release\UnrealEngine\Engine\Source\Runtime\PakFile\Private\IPlatformFilePak.cpp] [Line: 4336] Retry was NOT sucessful.

I did some digging and a Steam user named @pppino found a fix.

Please read carefully:

Step 1: Install the Epic Games version of Marvel Rivals while also having the Steam version of the game installed.

Step 2: After the installing the Epic Games version, go to your Steam folder containing the game and drag the "MarvelRivals" game folder to your desktop.

Step 3: Open the file location of the Epic Games version and delete .egstore from the folder.

Step 4: Uninstall Marvel Rivals on STEAM (don't worry, the game file is still going to be on your desktop).
Open the Epic Games version folder again, drag and drop all contents of the folder into the "MarvelRivals" folder on your desktop and then drag that back to its original path in the Steam files.

Step 5: Open the Steam app and install Marvel Rivals again. Instead of doing an entire install from scratch, it will automatically start validating your game's files. After that is done you can launch the game again and hopefully it will start working again.

I have no idea how it helped me but it did. At first I thought it was an issue with my 14th gen CPU because it gave me a warning multiple times when opening the launcher.

My guess is that it has something to do with the Steam version of the game. I'm gonna play it for a while and see how it goes. If I find anything of importance then I will update this post.

glad it worked for you :quickbilly:
If you have a 14gen intel have you updated your bios? id look into it because 13/14gen cpus have a massive flaw that will destroy your cpu over time.
