About the game
What you do in a play session
If you're a Marvel United fan looking to add a darker, more chaotic edge to your games, the Symbiote Companions deck is the addition you didn't know you needed. Originally released at SDCC 2024, this small pack brings four iconic symbiotes—Agony, Riot, Lasher, and Phage—to your tabletop. The best part is the versatility: you aren't stuck with just one way to play. If you just want to power up your favorite hero, you can pick one of these symbiotes and shuffle their 3 hero cards into your deck, playing them as if they were part of your standard arsenal. It's a fantastic way to customize your strategy and see how these symbiotic abilities fit your playstyle.
Now, if you want to take the experience to the next level, there's the option to assemble the 'Hybrid'. In this mode, you shuffle all 12 hero cards together to create a unique, powerful hero. To represent this character, you can use any existing symbiote miniature you already have in your collection—Venom, Carnage, Anti-Venom, or whoever is available in your box. It's a very creative way to reuse your minis and create a new identity for your sessions. Since the game is cooperative and focused on hand management, these extra cards bring new synergies that might be the difference between saving the day or seeing the city fall to the villain. It's lean, punchy content that expands tactical possibilities without complicating the rules we already know and love. If you enjoy collecting everything for Marvel United or simply want more options to spice up your decks, this symbiote pack is a great pick. Get ready to see how these otherworldly creatures shift the balance of your battles against the most dangerous villains in the Marvel universe.
