Marvel Snap reveal shows off breakneck gameplay from former Hearthstone devs

Alan Bernal Published: 2022-05-19T18:44:12 Updated: 2022-06-20T04:58:15MarvelMarvel SnapSecond DinnerStudios Second Dinner and Nuverse revealed its upcoming free-to-play game, Marvel Snap, a lighting-fast collectible card game (CCG) that ditches the traditional turn-based system. Marvel Snap comes partly from a new studio filled with veteran developers who worked on Blizzard’s Hearthstone to combine years of CCG wisdom with the Marvel Universe’s host of heroes and villains. With a punishing Thanos ‘Snap’ mechanic and matches with a life expectancy of only three minutes, Second Dinner is aiming to give players a wildly dynamic take to a card game. In collaboration with Marvel Entertainment, publisher Nuverse and the devs are preparing to fit 80 years of superhero history into its 2022 release. During its May 19 reveal, people got to see Marvel Snap in all its glory, with a complete rundown of gameplay and a look at some of the heroes from the 150-card collection set for launch. Second Dinner is touting its game as the “fastest card battler” in the Multiverse, and for great reason: Like we mentioned, there are no turns in Marvel Snap, and it sets the stage for blistering back-and-forth matches. “We stripped off all the stuff that gets in the way of ‘fun’ and gets everybody straight into the strategic action,” Chief Product Officer Yong Woo said in the reveal video.

Second DinnerMarvel Snap is introducing a new pace to the classic CCG formula. Gameplay includes a Cosmic Cube mechanic to raise the stakes, a ‘Retreat’ option for strategic depth in case a location goes south, and decks filled with cards with special abilities.
