Marvel Snap Goes Offline in the US along with Other Apps
Marvel Snap's US Shutdown: A ByteDance Fallout?
The recent offline status of Marvel Snap in the US is directly linked to the ongoing scrutiny of its parent company, ByteDance. This isn't an isolated incident; Mobile Legends: Bang Bang and CapCut, also owned by ByteDance (the same company behind TikTok), have suffered the same fate.
The US government's concerns regarding national security and data privacy surrounding ByteDance have led to this preemptive action. The company appears to have pulled these apps to potentially avoid a more extensive ban.
While there's speculation of a possible, albeit temporary, TikTok return, the future of Marvel Snap and other ByteDance apps in the US remains uncertain. The US market represents a significant portion of these companies' revenue and player base, making a prolonged ban a considerable blow.
For now, the situation is fluid. While the possibility of a reversal remains, only time will tell. Players outside the US can continue enjoying Marvel Snap, readily available on the Google Play Store.
