I've been reminded that I should give other Marvel games more attention. While I frequently cover Marvel Snap (Free) updates, other titles often end up in my Monday Best Updates articles. That's a fair point! So, let's dedicate a Marvel Minute to see what's happening elsewhere. Both Marvel Future Fight (Free) and Marvel Contest of Champions (Free) boast exciting current events. Let's dive in!
First, Marvel Future Fight is all about Iron Man! Tony's always inventing new suits and weapons. This event, inspired by Invincible Iron Man, features new outfits for Tony and Pepper. Here's the update summary:
"Invincible Iron Man has joined Marvel Future Fight.
Defeat enemies with upgraded suits!
New Uniforms Added! – Iron Man, Rescue
New Tier-4 Advancement! – War Machine, Hulkbuster
New World Boss: Legend+ Added! – The Black Order, 'Corvus & Proxima' return.
New Custom Gear, 'C.T.P. of Liberation' Added!
200 Crystals Event – Earn 200 crystals by linking your email account!"
Now, let's look at the ever-popular Marvel Contest of Champions. New events usually introduce playable characters, and the roster is incredibly diverse at this point. I doubt we'll ever see another Marvel fighting game with such a varied cast. Count Nefaria? Seriously? As a long-time Marvel fan, I appreciate seeing these less common characters, especially as playable fighters. The update notes provide all the details:
"NEW CHAMPIONS
Count Nefaria
Count Luchino Nefaria, a descendant of Italian nobility, leveraged his wealth and connections to become a Maggia crime syndicate leader. He gained superhuman abilities through scientific experiments, but at the cost of his life. Resurrected as ionic energy, he's effectively immortal as long as he drains other ionic beings.
Shathra
Daughter of Oshtur and Gaea (Elder Goddesses), Shathra hails from Loomworld. Tasked with creating the Celestial Map of Humanity, she was consumed by jealousy after her sister Neith surpassed her. Driven by vengeance, she seeks to destroy her sister's creation.
NEW QUESTS AND EVENTS
Event Quest – Lupus In Fabula
An attempt to overthrow The Collector's ship! The Summoner must evict these villains, but faces escalating challenges as each villain plots their own schemes. Can the Summoner succeed, or will they go down with the ship?
Side Quest – Ludum Maximus
The Maestro hosts the Circus Maximus, a series of games and challenges hosted by Count Nefaria. Five weekly maps offer randomized paths and formidable foes.
Act 9; Chapter 1: THE RECKONING
Following Glykhan's self-destruction, Ouroboros's sinister plot continues. Clues are scarce, but Superior Kang offers assistance. Mister Fantastic and Doctor Doom send The Summoner on an intel mission, but they're not the only ones seeking answers.
Glorious Games
Our third Saga: Glorious Games! Celebrating the Contest's history and the Maestro's return, this four-month event features a classical antiquity theme, a Champion chase, Champion reworks, and new Events and Quests.
Realm Events
Collaborate with Summoners across the Battlerealm! Contribute points globally to unlock milestone rewards. Ranked rewards, including a unique title, are also available."
That's it! Both events look fantastic. If you're a lapsed player or new to these games, now's a great time to jump in. I'm definitely checking out Count Nefaria. He's so nefarious! Okay, I'll stop now. Enjoy!
