Marvel Tokon Deploys August 21 Patch, Fixing PC Load Spikes and PS5 Reset Bugs

Q: Did the latest Marvel Tokon update secretly wipe out all your saved match replays forever?

Yes — but only for old replay files, not your broader save data. The Aug. 21 Marvel Tokon patch explicitly says that “due to a fix related to the replay functionality, previous replay data will no longer be accessible or viewable after this update.” That means match replays saved before installing the patch are effectively gone for players in practical terms, because the game can no longer open them. This was not described as a wipe of all saved progress. The update separately fixed problems with badge progress saving, PS5 settings resets, trophy tracking, rankings, and replay saving/playback going forward. So your general save data, settings, and progression were not said to be erased by the patch. What changed is replay compatibility. The patch repaired bugs where replays were not saving or playing back correctly, but the tradeoff was that older replay data became inaccessible after the update. New replays created after patching should save and play normally, based on the notes. So if you were worried the update secretly deleted everything, the answer is no. If you were asking whether it killed access to your pre-patch match replays, the answer is yes — the developer disclosed that in the patch notes.

Marvel Tokon’s August 21 patch rolled out broad fixes across PC, PS5 and core gameplay, targeting performance, stability and balance issues.
PC players got a fix for heavy processing loads during matches, while PS5 fixes addressed settings resetting on restart and erroneous online match forfeits within the eligible participation window.
Gameplay changes removed several combat and camera bugs, including unintended follow-up attacks after Champion’s Cosmic Smash, invisible Peni Parker web hitboxes, and Spider-Man’s Web Slam leaving opponents stuck in an attacked state.
Online and support modes also saw repairs: matchmaking was adjusted in Ranked and Casual play, replays were fixed, Room Match activities now finish properly, and Arcadia Rumble menu freezes were addressed.
The update also corrected progression issues in badges, rankings, trophies and character lessons, signaling a cleanup pass across both competitive systems and single-player content.
