NetEase will slash Marvel Rivals’ footprint ahead of Season 9.5’s August 7 launch, trimming the game by up to 40 GB on PC and 15 GB on PS5 and Xbox.
The dev‑vision video reveals a comprehensive re‑pack that removes excess storage without altering visual fidelity.
Earlier baselines stood at 50‑60 GB, but ongoing updates have pushed the file well over 100 GB.
Season 6 gained a 15 % cut, yet later releases reversed that progress.
This patch will permanently re‑package assets, requiring a clean SSD run‑time during installation.
New Vanguard and Skins
Season 9.5 introduces The Hood, a ranged‑tank Vanguard.
It also ends the Summer event with a suite of Swimsuit Special skins.
Fans should allocate space now to enjoy the optimized build and fresh characters.
