After developer Second Dinner confirmed a new PvP mode would be coming to Marvel Snap last year, it's now announced the new Battle Mode will be arriving at the end of January.

The new mode, called Battle Mode Vs. Friends, was first confirmed in November, and a recent post on the official Marvel Snap website confirmed it would be arriving in the next patch on January 31. Obviously the whole point of the game is PvP, but this new mode is specifically designed to allow everyone to play with friends.

In the roadmap outlined last year, Battle Mode was described as an alternative way to play, giving each player 10 bars of health, with Snaps doing double damage. Once the update drops, players will be able to create or join matches, with a code that their friend shares with them.
