‘Marvel Snap’ Game Also Goes Dark and Is Pulled From App Stores Because of TikTok Ban

Don’t blame Thanos: “Marvel Snap” is a casualty of the U.S. government’s move to ban TikTok over fears about its parent company’s Chinese ties.

It’s not just TikTok that winked offline for U.S. users Saturday, just hours before the Jan. 19 deadline specified by the U.S. divest-or-ban law targeting TikTok. At least 10 other ByteDance-owned apps also were disabled and removed from app stores Saturday night because of a U.S. law prohibiting them from being distributed in the country unless the Beijing-based company sold the apps — including “Marvel Snap,” a digital collectible card game featuring characters from the Disney-owned studio.
