Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls' PC version has drawn criticism over performance issues, with evidence suggesting its digital rights management system is the culprit. Testing has reportedly shown significant performance improvements when the DRM layer is removed, indicating the anti-piracy measures are creating a noticeable overhead on PC hardware. While the team-based fighting game has maintained a reasonable player base since launch, the technical limitations of the port have prevented it from reaching its potential on that platform.
- DRM implementation appears to be degrading PC performance measurably, creating a scenario where legitimate players experience worse conditions than pirated versions.
- The port's technical issues have likely limited the game's PC audience despite solid baseline appeal of the Marvel fighting game concept.
