How To Disable Mouse Acceleration in Marvel Rivals

Mouse acceleration is detrimental to competitive shooters, and Marvel Rivals is no exception. The game inexplicably enables mouse acceleration by default, lacking an in-game toggle. This guide shows you how to disable it.

Since the game offers no in-game setting to disable mouse acceleration, manual configuration of the settings file is necessary. Follow these steps:

  1. Press Windows key + R, then type %localappdata% and press Enter.
  2. Locate the "Marvel" folder, then navigate to "MarvelSavedConfigWindows".
  3. Open the "GameUserSettings.ini" file using Notepad (or a similar text editor).
  4. Add the following lines to the end of the file:
[/Script/Engine.InputSettings]
bEnableMouseSmoothing=False
bViewAccelerationEnabled=False
  1. Save the changes (Ctrl + S), then close the file.
  2. Right-click the "GameUserSettings.ini" file, select "Properties", check the "Read-only" box, and click "Apply" and "OK".

You've successfully disabled mouse acceleration in Marvel Rivals. For optimal performance, ensure mouse acceleration is also disabled in Windows settings:

  1. In the Windows search bar, type "Mouse" and select "Mouse settings".
  2. Click "Additional mouse options" in the upper right corner.
  3. Go to the "Pointer Options" tab and uncheck "Enhance pointer precision".
  4. Click "Apply" and "OK".

With mouse acceleration disabled in both the game and Windows, you'll experience consistent sensitivity, improving aim and muscle memory.

Understanding Mouse Acceleration and Why It's Harmful

Mouse acceleration dynamically adjusts sensitivity based on mouse movement speed. Fast movements result in higher sensitivity, while slow movements lower it. While convenient for general use, this is disastrous for precise aiming in games like Marvel Rivals.

Consistent sensitivity is crucial for building muscle memory and improving aim. Mouse acceleration prevents this by constantly changing your sensitivity, hindering accurate shot placement.

Now, enjoy improved aim and a more responsive experience in Marvel Rivals!

Marvel Rivals is available now on PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X|S.
