Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls held a beta the past weekend, finally giving PC players a chance to play Sony's superhero tag fighter before launch (and a second opportunity for those on PS5). It was short but sweet, reaching an all-time peak of 33,233 concurrent players on Steam alone—just beating out Street Fighter 6's beta player peak back in 2023.
However, PC players' toughest foe during the beta wasn't skilled players; it was stuttering, low FPS, and a whole host of other issues. Not the best sign given Marvel Tōkon launches next week on Thursday, August 6—that's just eight days, including the weekend. During the beta, developer Arc System Works quickly apologised for these issues and shared some community-tested fixes.
