Marvel Snap Returns to App Stores with New U.S. Publisher

Marvel Snap has made a triumphant return to US app stores after being temporarily removed due to tensions between the US government and Chinese tech company Bytedance. The game is now available for download thanks to a new US-based publisher, Skystone Games, which will support its ongoing operations. Developer Second Dinner has also begun to bring many of its publishing responsibilities in-house, alleviating concerns about Chinese ties. The company expressed gratitude for the support and is optimistic about Marvel Snap’s future developments.

Marvel Snap was taken off US app stores due to escalating tensions between the US government and the Chinese tech firm Bytedance, which owns Second Dinner. Ongoing scrutiny of TikTok, another Bytedance product, was the primary cause of the ban.

Marvel Snap is a collectible card game that was launched in October 2022. It immerses players into the Marvel universe, allowing them to build decks with a variety of heroes and villains. The game combines strategic gameplay with stunning visuals, quickly becoming popular among card game enthusiasts.
