Marvel Rivals has a wide variety of game modes for both casual and competitive queues. In some maps, you simply have to contest for the control of a point, whereas you might have to escort a payload to a particular destination in some others. Certain maps also feature a hybrid style, where you must first capture a point and then escort a payload to its destination.

The payload escort maps are particularly more complex since the speed of the payload can increase or decrease based on some factors. There are some speed stages, and you can speed up the payload to its maximum limit with a very simple method. In this article, we will explain how you can make the payload move faster in Marvel Rivals.

There are four speed stages for the payload in Marvel Rivals:

  • 1 Arrow – Default Speed
  • 2 Arrows – Slightly Faster
  • 3 Arrows – Fast
  • 4 Arrows – Maximum Speed

Unlike games like Overwatch 2, where you need to have at least one person on the payload to make it move, Marvel Rivals has a different approach. As long as you have control of the payload, it will automatically move even if there is nobody on it. This is the default speed and is denoted by one arrow on the top of the progress meter.

If any one of your teammates is on or in the immediate vicinity of the payload, it moves faster and is denoted by two arrows on the progress meter. When one other teammate joins you, i.e., there are two of your teammates on or near the payload, it becomes faster still. This is the third speed stage, denoted by three arrows instead.

The fastest speed stage in Marvel Rivals is when at least three teammates are on the payload. This is denoted by four arrows on the progress meter. This is the fastest that the payload moves in Marvel Rivals. After this point, the speed does not change even if you have more than three teammates on the payload.
