After being caught in a TikTok app ban wave, Marvel Snap developer Second Dinner is actively searching for a new publisher to ensure the game's continued availability. The popular mobile game was temporarily unavailable for download and play in the U.S. due to its previous affiliation with ByteDance's Nuverse, which was recently divested. While the game has since returned, the incident highlighted the risk posed by TikTok's ongoing legal issues. Second Dinner aims to find a publisher with no ties to TikTok to mitigate future ban risks and ensure players can continue enjoying the game.
