About the game
If you thought the universe was dangerous enough, get ready: the Mad Titan has arrived to bring chaos to order! In Marvel Champions: The Mad Titan's Shadow, the stakes are raised to a whole new level. This is the third major campaign expansion for the base game, and Thanos's shadow looms large over our heroes. The focus here is confronting the Black Order, featuring heavy hitters like Ebony Maw, Proxima Midnight, and the legendary Corvus Glaive. And the mastermind behind it all? Thanos himself, of course.

Inside this box, you'll find an epic journey split into five intense scenarios. One of the best features is the flexibility: you can play each mission as a standalone encounter or dive into the full campaign to experience the unfolding saga. If you love variety, the expansion includes new modular encounter sets, ensuring that the same mission can feel completely different every time you sit down to play.

For those looking to expand their roster of heroes, this expansion introduces two powerhouse characters: Adam Warlock and Spectrum. And here's the best part: they come with fully pre-built decks, so you can jump straight into the action without any setup hassle. If you're already a fan of the Marvel Champions system, this expansion is a must-have to keep the challenge high and the excitement flowing. Ready your deck, call your allies, and try to stop Thanos's snap!
