Holding two of three Locations in Marvel Snap is the key to victory, so therefore, knowing every possible effect is vital to your success. Here’s a complete breakdown of every single Location in Marvel Snap to date so you can get ahead of the curve,

Locations are everything in Marvel Snap. Your sole objective is to control as many Locations as possible in order to win. But with each having its own unique effect, every game will have you changing up your strategy on the fly.

From simple effects like adding Power to your cards to outright adding a seventh turn, Locations can completely flip any given match on its head.

Thus, if you’re looking to succeed in the game, it’s crucial you know every possible Location before they appear. So here’s a full rundown on every Marvel Snap Location today along with all the unique effects.

Locations are everything in Marvel Snap. Familiarize yourself with each unique effect so you’re never caught off-guard.

How Locations work in Marvel Snap

With each Marvel Snap game, three Locations are present in the middle of the field. At the very beginning, just one of these Locations will be visible, with the following revealed across turns two and three.

Over six turns, your objective is to amass as must Power as possible at these Locations. Having more Power than your opponent in two of the three Locations is your end goal.

This means even if one Location goes ignored for the entire match, you can still win so long as you dominate the remaining two.

Though with every round of action in Marvel Snap, the combination of Locations will be different. Each time around, a unique mix will be revealed, meaning you can rest on your laurels and expect one strategy to work across every game.

While most Locations in Marvel Snap have an equal chance of showing up in your next game, a few can stand out from the pack and appear more often than others.

With each passing week in Marvel Snap, expect to see fresh Locations featured more prominently than others. To keep the game fresh and ensure even the most experienced players remain on their toes, Featured Locations rotate to shake up the meta.

While Featured, the specific Location has far greater odds of appearing in your next match. While it’s not a guarantee, the Featured Location will appear in a vast majority of games across that weekend, meaning it’d be wise to build a deck around its effect.

At launch, Marvel Snap featured more than 50 unique Locations in total and that number is already growing. While that’s plenty to wrap your head around, more Locations are being added to the mix with seasonal updates each and every month.
