Marvel Snap is back online in the United States after a tumultuous period. However, developer Second Dinner has announced it's actively searching for a new publisher following the game's temporary unavailability due to the TikTok ban impacting its current publisher, Nuverse (a ByteDance subsidiary).
The abrupt removal of Marvel Snap, coupled with a "banned" warning message, reportedly caught Second Dinner by surprise. This incident, following the TikTok ban, has led to significant player frustration and a deluge of complaints regarding missed login rewards and disrupted gameplay. Second Dinner's social media channels reflect this player anger.
Second Dinner's decision to seek a new publisher underscores the behind-the-scenes fallout from this event. The timing of this announcement, amidst the ongoing player backlash, strongly suggests considerable dissatisfaction with Nuverse's handling of the situation.
The search for a new publisher could take months or even years. Until then, the priority is to prevent similar disruptions. In the meantime, players can return to the game and utilize our helpful resources, such as our comprehensive Marvel Snap card tier list, to enhance their gameplay.
