Marvel Snap Returns After Outage, Publisher Search Ongoing

Marvel Snap, the popular card battler from Second Dinner, is back online in the US after a tumultuous period. However, the game's developer has announced it's actively searching for a new publisher, a significant blow to the current publisher, Nuverse (a ByteDance subsidiary).

The brief unavailability of Marvel Snap stemmed from the recent TikTok ban affecting ByteDance. Second Dinner reportedly lacked prior notice of this action, leaving them scrambling to address player concerns and restore service. The abrupt shutdown, accompanied by a "banned" message, caused significant frustration among players.

Second Dinner's decision to seek a new publishing partner highlights the behind-the-scenes fallout from the unexpected removal. The developer's social media channels have been flooded with complaints from players missing out on in-game rewards and events.

Finding a new publisher could take considerable time – potentially months or even years. The immediate priority is preventing a recurrence of this disruptive incident.
