The halls of Xavier's Institute are buzzing with excitement as Marvel Snap introduces its May season, themed around the New X-Men. This season promises to shake up your matches with a fresh class of rising stars, including the ambitious Esme Cuckoo, the electrifying Surge, and strategic minds like Prodigy, all set to revolutionize the meta.
The season pass for May in Marvel Snap kicks off with the introduction of Esme Cuckoo, a telepathic clone of Emma Frost known for her impatience with rules and hesitation. Her On Reveal effect is a game-changer, pulling a card from your deck, adjusting its cost to three with four Power, and handing it to you like a psychic grenade ready to explode.
Esme is just the beginning of this month's excitement. Each week, a new Series 5 mutant will be added to the card pool, bringing unique twists to your matchups. Expect to juggle cost reductions, copycat tactics, and resurrection tricks with characters like Surge, Prodigy, Elixir, and Xorn. And don't miss out on the return of Captain Carter's seasonal pack if you missed it before.
The new locations this month add even more drama to your games. Pit of Exile will challenge your strategy by shutting down big power plays, forcing you to adopt leaner builds and smarter sequencing. Meanwhile, Genosha sets the stage for final turn bloodbaths by clearing all but your most expensive card at the buzzer. These locations are ready to flip the script on your usual decks.

Beyond the arenas, Marvel Snap is rolling out three new collection albums this month. The first, launching on May 8th, is a collaboration with Penny Arcade, featuring variants by Mike Krahulik. This is followed by a chibi-themed collection from Rian Gonzales on May 15th, and a disco-fueled dance fest on May 30th, showcasing groove-worthy variants of Deadpool, Spider-Man, and Dazzler.
