Second Dinner ditches Nuverse as Marvel Snap publisher, partners with Skystone Games

Author : Natalie Mar 18,2025

Second Dinner, the developer behind the popular mobile game Marvel Snap, has severed ties with its former publisher, Nuverse. The studio has announced a new partnership with US-based publisher Skystone Games. This move follows the game's temporary removal from app stores in the aftermath of the Bytedance (TikTok's parent company) controversy.

The recent events surrounding Bytedance and the subsequent impact on several of its published titles, including Mobile Legends: Bang Bang and Marvel Snap, have been dramatic. The temporary removal of these apps, seemingly a strategic move by Bytedance, caused significant disruption. While TikTok's restoration was swift, other games published by Bytedance subsidiaries faced prolonged issues. Second Dinner, for example, was not informed about Marvel Snap's removal and spent weeks working to restore its availability.

A Strategic Shift for Second Dinner

Second Dinner's decision to part ways with Nuverse is unsurprising. The unexpected and disruptive removal of Marvel Snap likely strained the relationship. The swiftness of this change suggests significant internal fallout at Nuverse stemming from these events.

While the geopolitical implications are noteworthy, a more pressing question is whether Bytedance's actions to protect TikTok have inadvertently undermined its broader gaming ambitions. Second Dinner's actions certainly suggest this might be the case.
