Marvel is bringing Peni Parker, Bruce Banner, and Rocket and Groot to Marvel Snap ahead of Rival’s debut

Popverse’s top stories of the day

The new season of Marvel Snap is upon us, bringing a new set of cards to the game. It’s not just one game that Marvel wants to remind you of, though; the new cards offered in Marvel Snap all come from Marvel Rivals, the team shooter that goes live on December 6, 2024. Because if you love one Marvel game, you’ll probably love the other, right?

A total of seven cards will be added to Marvel Snap during the upcoming season, which begins on December 3, 2024. Each card features a character from Marvel Rivals, which is why this season is being called the Rivals Season. The new cards available are:

• Galacta – Available from December 3
• Luna Snow – Available from December 3
• Peni Parker – Available from December 10th
• Doctor Doom 2099 – Available December 17
• Bruce Banner – Available December 24th
• Lasher – Available from December 28
• Rocket and Groot – Available from December 31st

Now, some of these characters have been part of Marvel Snap since the game launched, but the versions introduced during the Marvel Rivals season have unique powers to set them apart from what came before. In addition to these new cards and the Series Drop taking place on December 10, new variants of existing cards will be introduced every Tuesday through the end of the year.

This kind of cross-promotion is not unusual; when one game with the Marvel logo on the front does well, it will likely lead to an increase in players in the other. Whether this leads to the developers finally reintroducing promo codes to Marvel Snap is another question entirely.
