How to Unlock Battle Mode in Marvel Snap
To unlock Battle Mode in Marvel Snap, you will need to complete the “Stakes” tutorial. Once you have done this and reached level 10, you will gain access to Battle mode. You’ll find it in the Game Modes tab at the bottom right of the main menu screen.
How to Play Against Friends in Marvel Snap
To play against friends in Marvel Snap, you will need to create or join a Friendly Battle. Open Battle Mode from the main menu, then select “Friendly Battle”. If you want to host a match, choose “Create”. This will give you a code that the other player can use to join the game. If you want to join a game, ask your opponent to generate the code, then use it to get started. Note that friendly battles have different rules than standard mode. Here’s what’s different:
- Each player starts with 10 life points
- Defeat your opponent by dealing 10 damage over a series of rounds
- Winning a round deals damage to the opposing player equal to the value of the cube
- On turn 5 and beyond, the cube begins to break. Only one player needs Snap to reach the full 8 cubes.
Another thing to note is that Battle mode does not offer booster or ranking rewards. So it’s mostly bragging rights on the line!
