Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls has launched to a mixed user rating on Steam, with players reporting performance problems and objecting to its requirement to log in to a PlayStation Network account. The criticism appears particularly strong among Linux users, for whom the login system and compatibility issues may make the game harder to access, highlighting familiar concerns about launch-day stability and platform restrictions.

The article reports that negative reviews focus on technical faults such as poor performance, crashes and connection difficulties, alongside the mandatory PSN sign-in. Linux players using compatibility tools such as Proton have reportedly been affected disproportionately, as anti-cheat or account systems can prevent games from working reliably outside Windows. The mixed rating reflects early user feedback rather than a definitive judgement on the game’s long-term quality.
