Marvel Rivals season two is about to arrive, and the update files are already available to preload before the servers go back up. Given that a seasonal update will feature a notable file size, you should preload it to avoid waiting for your files to download after the servers go live. Season two will feature a whole bunch of new content, including exclusive rewards via Twitch drops.
Here’s everything you need to know about the Marvel Rivals season two update size and how to preload before the servers go live.
Marvel Rivals season 2 update size

The season two update for Marvel Rivals features a whopping 48.4 GB size on Steam. But after installing the new seasonal update, the game takes up 68.4 GB of space on your hard disk. Considering all the new content and shaders coming into the game, it was expected that the update would feature a huge file size.
The preload files went live on Steam only after the servers were down. The servers are expected to be up by 6am CT, along with all the new content in season two.
How to preload Marvel Rivals season 2
The preload files for Marvel Rivals season two are now available to download, so stay prepared for when the servers go live. All you have to do is head over to the Marvel Rivals page on your preferred platform and make sure to update the game to the latest available patch.
The preload patch went live earlier today and is available to download and install before the servers go live. You can also launch the game after installing the patch to ensure all your shaders are loaded. Since loading the in-game shaders takes quite a bit of time after each update, it is highly efficient to load them beforehand and avoid delays when the servers are back up.
