Raw Thrills Marvel: Contest Of Champions

A multiplayer fighting arcade game based on the popular mobile game, featuring collectible Marvel Champion Cards and fast-paced superhero battles.

Overview

Marvel: Contest of Champions from Raw Thrills brings the mobile game experience to the arcade floor in a dedicated cabinet adorned with vibrant Marvel artwork. Originally a Dave & Buster's exclusive since 2019, this arcade adaptation is now available industry-wide following the success of Raw Thrills' Injustice Arcade formula. Players scan collectible Champion Cards to select from over one hundred Marvel superheroes and villains, each featuring unique abilities and fighting styles for strategic three-on-three combat on dynamic stages.

Key Features

Champion Card System

Players scan highly collectible Champion Cards to select their heroes and villains from a roster of over 100 Marvel characters. Each card unlocks specific abilities and fighting styles, creating strategic depth in character selection and team composition. The same cards work across all cabinet versions for consistent gameplay.

Collectible Card Rewards

Every game awards players a collectible Champion Card with opportunities to upgrade and receive additional cards, including super rare foil variants. Multiple card series are available with Series 2 currently offered and Series 3 potential future releases based on market demand.
