Marvel T\u014dkon: Fighting Souls launched this week from Arc System Works, and the Steam reception has been rough. The game is currently sitting at 45% (Mixed)<\/strong> across roughly 1,831 reviews \u2014 a difficult starting point for a live-service fighter built around a high-profile licence. We covered the pre-launch build-up yesterday<\/a>; here’s the post-launch picture.<\/p>\n\n\n

Launch Numbers<\/h2>\n\n

Peak concurrent players on Steam hit 24,498<\/strong> \u2014 a reasonable number for a fighting game launch, but well below the 44,303<\/strong> peak that Dragon Ball FighterZ<\/em> (also Arc System Works) reached at its 2018 release. The Mixed score in the first 48 hours is the harder problem to dig out of.<\/p>\n\n\n

What Reviewers Are Flagging<\/h2>\n\n

The most common complaints in negative reviews point to two structural issues: a mandatory PSN account login on PC<\/strong> (a Sony requirement that has already damaged the launch trajectory of several recent PC titles) and no Linux support<\/strong> at launch. Technical performance complaints have been widespread across the first 48 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n
