Feedback suggested a need for more balanced coverage of Marvel games. While Marvel Snap (Free) receives frequent updates, other titles often get relegated to Monday's Best Updates. This is a valid point, prompting this Marvel Minute to examine current events in other Marvel mobile games. Both Marvel Future Fight (Free) and Marvel Contest of Champions (Free) boast exciting new events. Let's dive in!
Marvel Future Fight's current event centers around Iron Man! This Invincible Iron Man-inspired event introduces new outfits for Tony Stark and Pepper Potts. Here's a summary from the update notes:
"Invincible Iron Man joins Marvel Future Fight.
Engage enemies with upgraded suits!
New Uniforms: Iron Man, Rescue
New Tier-4 Advancement: War Machine, Hulkbuster

Now, let's look at the popular fighting game, Marvel Contest of Champions. New events often introduce playable characters, and this game's roster is incredibly diverse. The inclusion of less common characters like Count Nefaria is a welcome surprise for longtime Marvel fans. The update notes detail the additions:
"NEW CHAMPIONS
Count Nefaria: A Maggia crime syndicate leader with superhuman abilities gained through scientific experimentation. Resurrected as an ionic being, he is effectively immortal as long as he drains other ionic beings.
Shathra: Daughter of Oshtur and Gaea, tasked with creating the Celestial Map of Humanity. Fueled by jealousy and spite towards her sister, she seeks to destroy her sister's creation.
NEW QUESTS AND EVENTS
