I've been reminded that I should give more attention to Marvel games beyond Marvel Snap (Free). While I frequently cover Marvel Snap updates, other titles often get relegated to my Monday Best Updates articles. This is a valid criticism! So, let's dedicate a Marvel Minute to exploring what's happening in other Marvel mobile games. It turns out both Marvel Future Fight (Free) and Marvel Contest of Champions (Free) have exciting new events. Let's dive in!
First, Marvel Future Fight is celebrating Iron Man! Tony Stark, ever the innovator, is adding new suits and weaponry. This event, inspired by Invincible Iron Man, introduces new outfits for Tony and Pepper Potts. Here are the highlights 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: The Black Order's Corvus & Proxima return!
New Custom Gear: C.T.P. of Liberation
200 Crystals Event: Link your email for 200 crystals!"
Now, let's look at the ever-popular 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 real treat for longtime Marvel fans. The update notes detail the additions:
"NEW CHAMPIONS
Count Nefaria: A Maggia crime syndicate leader with ionic energy-based powers.
Shathra: Daughter of Oshtur and Gaea, from Loomworld, driven by vengeance.
NEW QUESTS AND EVENTS
Event Quest – Lupus In Fabula: A quest to evict villains from The Collector's ship.
Side Quest – Ludum Maximus: Games and challenges hosted by Count Nefaria, featuring randomized paths and foes.
Act 9; Chapter 1 – The Reckoning: The sinister plotting of Ouroboros continues.
Glorious Games: A four-month saga celebrating the Contest's 10th anniversary, with themed events and Champion reworks.
Realm Events: Global collaborative events with milestone and ranked rewards."
Both events look fantastic! If you're a lapsed player or new to these games, this is a great time to jump back in. I'm definitely checking out Count Nefaria – he looks incredibly nefarious! Enjoy!
