Second Dinner is looking to shake things up in Marvel Snap for the March 2026. This season will introduce a brand new keyword that will be used regularly going forward. The ones bringing this keyword to the game are Apocalypse (specifically his original identity of En Sabah Nur) and his Horsemen.

Objective, the first new keyword since Horde was added back in October, will task players with completing a specific task, as written on the card. Once the Objective is completed, a special effect will get triggered. This is demonstrated in the new Season Pass card, En Sabah Nur (4/5). After completing the Objective of filling the front row of every location, it will transform into Apocalypse, Celestials' Chosen (4/8), which will swap out the lowest-Power card in a selected front row with a card from your deck.

Other cards from this upcoming season include:

• (4) Isla the Unbeaten (3) (Super Premium Pass) - End of Turn: If you're losing this location, double this card's Power.
• (2) Juggernaut, Horseman of War (2) - Objective: Have 6 different Powers among your other cards in play. -> +6 Power
• (3) Gambit, Horseman of Death (3) - Objective: Play 5 total Cost of created cards. -> Randomly destroy up to 4 total Cost of enemy cards.
• (3) Caliban, Horseman of Pestilence (4) - Objective: Have 3 cards that are 4-Cost or higher in play -> Afflict the highest-Cost enemy card with -7 Power.
• (4) Selene, Horseman of Famine (4) - Objective: Have 3 cards with no abilities in play. -> Steal 5 Power from an enemy card here.
• (4) Rama-Tut (5) - On Reveal: Use 3 On Reveals from cards released before Rama-Tut's time.

Two more cards will be available through limited-time game modes. Team Clash will reward participants with the Sandstorm (2) skill card, which adds 2 Rocks to the player's hand and gives them +2 Power for each front-Row character. High Voltage Overdrive will give players the Ozymandias (5/9) card, which has an Ongoing effect of giving all friendly Rocks +3 Power.

While the new season reveal video didn't go into detail, the Marvel Snap website added that two new locations will be added to the game's rotation. Pyramid of Rama-Tut places a +3 Rock to a player's hand if they have none there while the Chronosphere Sphinx will copy the highest-Cost card in the player's deck into their hand.

Marvel Snap's March 2026 season will begin on Tuesday, March 3.

But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
