"Marvel Snap Returns Online; Second Dinner Seeks New Publisher Amidst Discontent"

by Caleb May 22,2025

After a tense few days, Second Dinner's popular card game, Marvel Snap, is once again available in the United States. The game was temporarily offline due to the TikTok ban impacting its publisher, ByteDance. However, it seems the developer was left in the dark about the decision to halt service, which was accompanied by a stark warning that the app had been "banned".

As Second Dinner scrambles to soothe player frustrations and address ongoing issues, they've made a significant announcement: they are now on the hunt for a new publisher. This move marks a major setback for Nuverse, a ByteDance subsidiary, which has been at the helm since Marvel Snap's successful launch in 2022, blending the thrill of fast-paced card battles with iconic Marvel heroes.

If you've followed my previous articles on this topic (and if you haven't, where have you been?), you'll know I highlighted the potential fallout from ByteDance's sudden decision to remove TikTok and several of its gaming titles without much notice. This move, seemingly unilateral, was bound to backfire.

Second Dinner's frustration is palpable, as evident from the flood of complaints on their social media from players who missed out on log-in rewards and event gameplay. Their decision to seek a new publisher underscores the underlying tension and dissatisfaction with how the situation was handled.

Securing a new publisher might take months or even years, but in the interim, the hope is that such disruptions won't recur.
