The recent ban of Marvel Snap in the US has sent shockwaves through the gaming community, especially since it coincided with the ban of the widely popular app TikTok. Both actions are indeed interconnected, and here's why.
Why the Ban on Marvel Snap in the US?
Marvel Snap isn't the only app affected; Mobile Legends: Bang Bang and CapCut have also been taken offline in the region. The common thread? All these apps are owned by ByteDance, the same company behind TikTok. If you've been following the news, you know that TikTok has been under scrutiny by US lawmakers due to national security and data privacy concerns.
In an effort to mitigate a broader crackdown, ByteDance chose to pull these apps from the US market preemptively. However, there's a glimmer of hope on the horizon. If TikTok manages a temporary comeback, there's a possibility that ByteDance's other games and apps could follow suit and return to US app stores.
The US represents a significant portion of the player base and revenue for these Chinese-owned gaming companies. A complete ban would be a major setback for them. Therefore, the gaming industry and fans alike are keenly watching to see if the ban on Marvel Snap in the US will be lifted. For now, we can only hope for the best.
If you're not in the US, you can continue enjoying Marvel Snap. Just head over to the Google Play Store to download it.
