How To Disable Mouse Acceleration in Marvel Rivals

Mouse acceleration is a major drawback for competitive shooters, and Marvel Rivals is no exception. The game unfortunately enables mouse acceleration by default, lacking an in-game toggle. Here's how to disable it:

How to Disable Mouse Acceleration in Marvel Rivals

Since the game offers no in-game setting to disable mouse acceleration, you'll need to edit the game's configuration file. It's a straightforward process:

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 your preferred text editor).
4. Add the following lines to the end of the file:

[/Script/Engine.InputSettings]
bEnableMouseSmoothing=False
bViewAccelerationEnabled=False

5. Save the changes (Ctrl + S), then close the file.
6. Right-click GameUserSettings.ini, select "Properties," check the "Read-only" box, click "Apply," and then "OK."

You've now disabled mouse acceleration in Marvel Rivals. Your aim should feel significantly improved.

Remember to also disable mouse acceleration within 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 then "OK."

With mouse acceleration disabled in both the game and Windows, you'll enjoy consistent sensitivity, crucial for building muscle memory and improving your aim in Marvel Rivals.

What is Mouse Acceleration and Why is it Detrimental?

Mouse acceleration dynamically adjusts your mouse sensitivity based on movement speed. Fast movements result in higher sensitivity, slow movements in lower sensitivity. While convenient for general use, this is highly undesirable in shooters like Marvel Rivals.

Consistent sensitivity is key. It allows you to develop muscle memory, leading to better aim. Mouse acceleration prevents this by constantly changing your sensitivity.

Now that mouse acceleration is disabled, you can fully utilize your skills and enjoy a more precise aiming experience in Marvel Rivals.

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