Second Dinner / Marvel SnapZoneMarvel Snap Big in Japan season start date
Marvel Snap’s August 2023 season, Big in Japan, is officially set to go live at 8PM PT on Monday, August 7. This date was locked in thanks to the current Season Pass expiry, meaning we can expect a seamless rollover into the new update at the time of the daily reset.
As usual, the Big in Japan season is expected to run for a full month, coming to a close on Monday, September 4.

No different from usual, Marvel Snap’s Season Pass gives players three options in which to unlock exclusive rewards. There’s the free option, wherein, you can grab a handful of free goodies as the month progresses.

New Big in Japan cards in August 2023 Marvel Snap season
Four new cards are on the way to Marvel Snap during the August 2023 season, with weekly releases planned out for the entire month.
First up comes Daken on launch day as part of the Season Pass. Daken is a 3-Cost 4-Power card with the following ability. On Reveal: Add the Muramasa Shard to your hand. The Muramasa Shard is a 1-Cost 1-Power Card that doubles Daken’s Power whenever it’s discarded or destroyed. Think Thor but perhaps with an even higher ceiling in the right decks.
Next we have Lady Deathstrike arriving on August 15. Lady Deathstrike is 5-Cost 3-Power card also has an On Reveal ability, this one to destroy each card at a Location with less Power than this. If you’re able to buff Lady Deathstrike in your hand, it could lead to a huge swing near the end of a match.
On August 22 comes X-23, a 1-Cost 2-Power addition with the following effect: When this is discarded or destroyed, regenerate it at a random Location and you get +1 Energy next turn.
And rounding out the Big in Japan season is Silver Samurai, a 4-Cost 5-Power card with the following ability. On Reveal: Each player discards the lowest Power card from their hand.
