I've been reminded that I should give more attention to Marvel games beyond Marvel Snap. While I frequently cover Marvel Snap updates, other titles often get relegated to Monday's Best Updates roundup. That's a fair point! So, let's dedicate a Marvel Minute to explore what's happening in other Marvel mobile games. It turns out both Marvel Future Fight and Marvel Contest of Champions have exciting new events. Let's dive in!
First, Marvel Future Fight is celebrating Iron Man! Tony Stark, ever the innovator, is showcasing new suits and weaponry. This event, inspired by Invincible Iron Man, introduces new outfits for Tony and Pepper. Here's a summary from the update notes:
"Invincible Iron Man joins Marvel Future Fight!
Defeat enemies with upgraded suits!
New Uniforms: Iron Man, Rescue
New Tier-4 Advancement: War Machine, Hulkbuster
New Legend+ World Boss: Corvus & Proxima (Black Order)
New Custom Gear: C.T.P. of Liberation
200 Crystals Event: Link your email for 200 crystals!"
Now, let's look at the popular fighting game, Marvel Contest of Champions. New events usually bring new playable characters, and the roster is incredibly diverse. The inclusion of less-common characters like Count Nefaria is a treat for longtime Marvel fans. The update notes detail the additions:
"NEW CHAMPIONS
Count Nefaria: A Maggia crime syndicate leader with superhuman abilities gained through scientific experimentation. Resurrected as an ionic being, he's effectively immortal.
Shathra: Daughter of Oshtur and Gaea, from Loomworld. Tasked with creating the Celestial Map of Humanity, her jealousy led her to a vengeful quest against her sister.
