What is download size of Marvel Rivals Season 1 on Steam?

Marvel Rivals Season 1 is available for download on all supported platforms including Steam for PC players. The update was expected to be quite large due to the amount of gameplay content that was announced by NetEase Games. The total download size of the first seasonal patch sits at 14.1 GB for Steam users. However, this isn't the amount of disk space the update would take up as it will install and expand.

Marvel Rivals garnered a massive player base and recorded some of the biggest concurrent player numbers on Steam. The Season 1 update will likely draw more attention and spike the player count with the introduction of new maps and the Fantastic Four family.

How large is the Marvel Rivals Season 1 update?

The Marvel Rivals Season 1 update, as mentioned, has a download size of 14.1 GB on Steam. However, that seems to be the compressed file size and will expand after the game client installs the entire patch. The entire update will take up a total of 54.6 GB of disk space after being completely installed.

The file size might seem too large for some of the fans. However, this is an expected outcome since the developers have planned to introduce a large amount of gameplay content in the game's inaugural season. Marvel Rivals is slated to receive three new maps throughout the season and four new heroes: Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman release at the start while Human Torch and The Thing arrive in the second half.

The exact download and disk size for the Marvel Rivals Season 1 update for other platforms may vary. This is because different systems require separate optimizations and could result in the creation of smaller files.

For Steam users, the update will likely download and patch side-by-side, making the installation process quicker. Once you're done installing, boot up Marvel Rivals Season 1 and explore the new gameplay content. Since a large number of players would try to log in at the same time, you might need to wait in a log-in queue. The devs may take such a staggered login route to prevent any server failures or connection issues.
