Marvel Battle Lines is a free game coming to iOS and Android during 2018 and features an expansive single-player campaign with an original story penned by Marvel writer Alex Irvine, as well as a turn-based PvP mode.

“Marvel’s incredible universe has reached hundreds of millions of fans around the world and it’s an honor to be collaborating with their team on a truly unique game that draws on the nostalgia of collecting trading cards and taps into the fun of battling with friends,” said Lawrence Koh, General Manager at Nexon. “MARVEL Battle Lines is incredibly engaging, fast and accessible, and will give players a chance to hone their skills and collect their favorite Super Heroes and Super Villains based on how they like to play games – whether that’s through the original single-player storyline and activities or competing in the PvP mode.”

In Marvel Battle Lines, players collect cards from each battle in single player or PvP modes, building decks with the powerful heroes and villains. The goal is to assemble the best deck and take on the greatest players in PvP.

“We are working very closely with Nexon to deliver a card battle game that is authentic to our characters and true to the platform,” said Jay Ong, Senior Vice President of Games, Marvel Entertainment. “MARVEL Battle Lines features an original story and all-new gameplay that Marvel fans and mobile players alike will enjoy for hours on end.”
