Second Dinner, the game development studio behind digital collectible card game Marvel Snap, has unveiled a $100 million Series B investment led by venture capital firm Griffin Gaming Partners.

The capital injection makes Griffin Gaming Partners a minority investor along with original investor NetEase. Marvel Snap has reached 22 million-plus downloads and $200 million-plus in revenue since its launch in 2022, the firm said.

“This investment not only boosts our capacity and gives us capital to jump on any great opportunities that might come our way, but most importantly, solidifies our commitment to making the most fun games ever,” said Hamilton Chu, co-founder and CEO of Second Dinner.

“We’re grateful to have Griffin Gaming Partners on our team,” said chief operating officer Matt Wyble. “From our first conversation, it was clear they love Snap and respect our need to be free to make the best games we can. This investment will help us make more awesome stuff! We’ll use it to develop and commercialize new titles, incubate original IP, write better press releases and ensure that Marvel Snap continues to grow globally.”

While “most of Second Dinner is focused on Marvel Snap,” Ben Brode, co-founder and chief development officer at the company, also said that “we’ve also got a couple other things cookin’. And they’re super, super fun. I put two ‘super’s because it’s possible they are too fun.”

Nick Tuosto, co-founder and managing director of Griffin Gaming Partners, added: “Second Dinner has assembled one of the strongest creative teams that we have ever come across. Marvel Snap adds to the management team’s incredible track record of creating hit titles.”
