Deadpool Joins Marvel Snap in Maximum Effort Update

Deadpool takes the spotlight in Marvel Snap's latest update, ushering in the Maximum Effort season that starts today. Alongside the Merc with a Mouth, the season features iconic characters like Wolverine, Gwenpool, and more, making it a must-play for fans. The update doesn't stop there; it includes a range of log-in rewards, including a special Headpool card variant, and a new refer-a-friend campaign that offers an exclusive Domino variant as a reward.

For those who love a bit of comic-book trivia, here's an interesting fact: Gwenpool, despite her name, isn't actually related to Gwen Stacy or Deadpool. She's a multiverse-traveling comic fan from the 'real' world who finds herself trapped in the Marvel universe and adopts a superhero identity inspired by her favorite characters.

But the excitement doesn't end with Gwenpool. Marvel Snap's update also introduces characters familiar to Deadpool movie fans, such as Ajax and Vanessa, known in the comics as Copycat. These are the comic versions, so brushing up on your Marvel lore will enhance your experience. Additionally, the sometime-sidekick Hydra Bob joins the fray, adding more depth to the game's roster.

Don't miss out on the exclusive opportunity to add Cassandra Nova, Charles Xavier's notorious twin, to your collection. She'll be available during the Deadpool's Diner event, starting July 23rd, or in the token shop afterward.
