We’re in yet another season of Marvel Snap, with new cards and new locations ready to hit the popular mobile card game. This time, the new season centers on the prestigious Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters (later changed to the Xavier Institute for Higher Learning), home of the X-Men as well as plenty of powerful young mutants who are ready to prove themselves. Here are all the new cards coming to Marvel Snap this season and when you can add them to your deck.

While there are plenty of X-Men already in Marvel Snap, this season looks to expand that roster by giving us some of the younger students at the Xavier Institute. These include four new cards that are being released, plus two new locations tied to the X-Men lore.

New Locations added to Marvel Snap X-Men season

The new locations are both already in the game and are:

• Pit of Exile
• Genosha

New Cards added to Marvel Snap X-Men season

The new Season Pass character is Esme Cuckoo; as a clone of Emma Frost, she is ambitious and power-hungry in addition to being a world-class telepath. While Esme Cuckoo is already in the game, she’s being joined by four more new characters. The new cards being added in the X-Men season of Marvel Snap are:

• May 6: Esme Cuckoo
• May 13: Prodigy
• May 20: Elixir
• May 27: Xorn

All of these cards are being added to Marvel Snap as Series 5, making them the rarest and most difficult-to-earn cards in the game. The new seasonal Snap Packs that have been implemented in the game are your best bet to get one of these new cards before they are added to the general roster.

We can't give you extra life, but we can keep you appraised of all the Marvel Snap codes currently available - updated weekly! - as well as the rarest Marvel Snap cards.
