Marvel Snap, a card-battler based on the Marvel IP, has the potential for exciting crossovers with other popular media within the Marvel universe. While the game has previously focused on thematic seasons aligned with Marvel movie and TV show releases, there remains an untapped opportunity for Marvel Snap to collaborate with popular games featuring the franchise's iconic heroes. Recently, the game's latest season introduced a crossover with Marvel's Midnight Suns, making it the perfect choice for Marvel Snap's first game crossover.
In the upcoming Bloodstone season of Marvel Snap in October 2023, players can look forward to thrilling new content, including fresh cards, locations, and special variants. As Marvel Snap approaches its one-year milestone, it is a fitting occasion for the game to commemorate this achievement by joining forces with Midnight Suns, another Marvel card-centric game. This collaboration results in an array of incredible variants for Marvel Snap's cards, inspired by the collectible tarot cards from Marvel's Midnight Suns. Players surely wouldn't want to miss out on these exciting additions.
Marvel Snap’s Midnight Suns Variant Crossover Makes Too Much Sense
While Marvel Snap is not as card-centric as Marvel's Midnight Suns, it still incorporates cards for character abilities in combat and allows players to customize their deck of cards to match their play style. This creates a connection between Marvel Snap and Midnight Suns, leading fans to hope for a crossover between the two games. After almost a year since their respective launches, it appears that this highly anticipated crossover is finally happening, potentially opening the door for more Marvel Snap crossovers in the future.
Marvel Snap explores the darker side of the Marvel universe with its Bloodstone season, featuring characters like Blade, Ghost Rider, and Elsa Bloodstone from the Midnight Suns. Given these circumstances, it makes perfect sense to have a crossover with the Midnight Suns game. Adding variants for Marvel's Midnight Suns' tarot cards is an obvious choice. Although it is doubtful that there will be a sequel to Midnight Suns, fans will be delighted to see that the game's legacy will continue through this collaboration with Marvel Snap, and it may even generate enough interest to warrant a sequel in the future.
In Marvel's Midnight Suns, players can discover tarot cards as collectible items while exploring the Abbey and its surroundings. Each of these cards features a Marvel character or characters representing the major arcana of a standard tarot deck. Although not an exact replication of the tarot cards in Midnight Suns, as some cards with characters not in Marvel Snap have been replaced with characters from Midnight Suns like Nico Minoru, Magik, and Doctor Strange who were not part of the original tarot deck, these variants are still beautifully designed and highly sought after by Marvel Snap players.
The crossover between Marvel Snap and Marvel's Midnight Suns is not only exciting for fans of both games, but also opens up possibilities for future collaborations between Marvel games. With Insomniac's Spider-Man 2 on the horizon and other Marvel games in development, it is likely that Marvel Snap will seek partnerships with other studios to bring their versions of Marvel characters into the game. Meanwhile, Marvel fans can anticipate collecting all the Midnight Suns tarot variants during Marvel Snap's Bloodstone season.
Marvel Snap is available for PC and mobile devices.
