Second Dinner partners with Skystone for Marvel Snap

The developer of Marvel Snap, Second Dinner, has inked a new partnership with Skystone Games. 

The deal was announced in a post on Twitter, in which the studio said that this was due to the title being taken offline as collateral damage to the United States TikTok ban. Marvel Snap's previous publisher, Nuverse, is owned by ByteDance, which also owns the video social media platform. 

Skystone has previously released titles such as Tyrant's Realm and It Lurks Below, which was also developed by Second Dinner co-founder David Brevik. 

"Thank you for your incredible support and patience during the recent outage in the United States. Now that we’re available for download on mobile app stores again, we're excited to share some news about the future of Marvel Snap," Second Dinner wrote.

"To ensure this never happens again, and with the help of our current publisher Nuverse (Thank you!), we've already signed agreements and started the work to bring almost all operational and publishing responsibilities in-house at Second Dinner with support from a new US-based publisher, Skystone Games.

"This has been a full-team effort between Second Dinner, Nuverse, Skystone and Marvel. Thank you again for all of your support—we're excited about what's ahead for Marvel Snap."

Second Dinner previously said that it was looking for a US partner following its outtage.
