Patch Notes - April 29, 2025

PLEASE NOTE: If you haven’t updated your game yet, get the latest in the App Store!

[h2]PATCH HIGHLIGHTS[/h2]

MARVEL SNAP is evolving! We’re thrilled to introduce Snap Packs, a major upgrade to how you unlock new cards and expand your collection. Whether you’re a newcomer looking to catch up, a returning player filling in the gaps, or a dedicated fan eager for the latest releases, Snap Packs offer an easier, more streamlined way to build your collection.

To celebrate the launch of Snap Packs, all players will receive a FREE Series 5 Collector’s Pack in the inbox after they update to the new patch!

What Are Snap Packs?

The Token Shop is transforming into a full-fledged Card Shop, bringing a host of exciting changes:

• Snap Packs – Each pack guarantees 1 unowned card (no duplicates!) and includes 2 bonus rewards.*
  
• Spotlight & Rotating Pinnable Cards – These will remain available, at the same Token prices.
  
• Free Daily Tokens – Log in every day to claim them!
  
• Token Packs – Purchase Tokens directly using Gold from the Card Shop.
  

Learn more about Snap Packs in our launch blog.

[h2]FEATURES[/h2]

We've improved the way we store your Collection in the cloud to speed up common Collection operations. You'll notice it most claiming new rewards such as Collection Track Rewards, Infinity Splits, and Shop purchases, but many operations are faster now.

When first logging in after this patch, you may notice a longer-than-normal load time. It’ll be barely noticeable for most players, but players with the very large collections might have a one-time longer wait than normal. The larger your collection, the more improvement you'll see.

[h2]ART, VFX, & AUDIO[/h2]

• The following cards now have VFX and SFX:
  
• Giganto
  
• Red Skull
  
• Uncle Ben

[h2]CARD UPDATES[/h2]

• Lasher no longer adds Power to cards if its own Power is negative. This aligns with how The First Ghost Rider works (this change went live via OTA a few weeks ago).

  [OLD] - When this card permanently gains Power, gain +2 more Power. (wherever this is) [NEW] - When this permanently gains Power, gain +2 more Power. (wherever this is)
