Marvel Tōkon Launch Issues: Here’s How to Get It Running

Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls has officially launched today, but some players might be facing a frustrating looping error when trying to start the game. A few friends mentioned that after selecting their language in the boot menu, the game crashed repeatedly, sending them back to the main menu. If you’re dealing with this, you’re not alone, but there is a workaround.

Arc System Works has shared guidance on their official Discord, suggesting that players should wait until the game is fully installed rather than relying on the PlayStation 5’s “Ready to Play” notification before diving in.

Reports indicate that after selecting a language, the game can get stuck in a loop, preventing further progress. The team is currently looking into this issue.

In the meantime, some players have found success by attempting to launch the game again only after the download has reached 100%. Keep in mind that this is a community-sourced workaround and not an officially confirmed fix, so your experience may vary.

If you’re encountering this problem, feel free to try this workaround while the investigation continues. Updates will be provided as more information or an official fix becomes available.

Thanks for your patience and for sharing your experiences; it really helps in addressing the issue more swiftly.

Hopefully, this workaround does the trick for you, but if not, Arc System Works aims to have a proper fix ready soon. It would be a shame for a launch day to be marred by such issues. See you in the lobby—keep an eye out for the Star-Lord one-trick!
