Marvel Snap has been pulled from US app stores. This news arrives alongside the ban of TikTok in the US, and the two events are directly related. Both Marvel Snap, Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, and CapCut, all owned by ByteDance (TikTok's parent company), have been made unavailable.
This preemptive action by ByteDance comes amidst growing national security and data privacy concerns surrounding the company. US lawmakers are scrutinizing ByteDance, leading to this move to potentially avoid a wider crackdown.
There's hope for a potential, albeit temporary, return of TikTok to US app stores. Should that happen, it's likely Marvel Snap and the other ByteDance apps would also return. The US market represents a significant portion of these companies' player base and revenue, making a permanent ban a substantial blow.
The future of Marvel Snap's availability in the US remains uncertain. For now, we await further developments. Players outside the US can continue to enjoy the game, available on the Google Play Store.
