Marvel Snap Seeks New Publisher as Second Dinner Exits

Marvel Snap Resumes Service Amid Publisher Turmoil

Marvel Snap has been restored for U.S. players following several days of unexpected downtime. The outage occurred when publisher ByteDance suspended services in response to the TikTok controversy, a move that apparently blindsided developer Second Dinner.

Developer Seeks New Publishing Partner

Second Dinner has announced it's actively pursuing alternative publishing arrangements. This represents a significant setback for current publisher Nuverse, ByteDance's gaming subsidiary, which successfully launched this popular Marvel-themed collectible card game in 2022.

Unplanned Shutdown Creates Backlash

The abrupt service suspension left players unable to claim daily rewards or participate in timed events, sparking widespread frustration on social media. This poorly-communicated decision appears to have damaged the relationship between Second Dinner and Nuverse beyond repair.

The publisher transition process may take considerable time to complete. In the interim, players can return to the game's signature fast-paced battles - and those looking for strategies might benefit from our comprehensive Marvel Snap tier list to optimize their card collections.
