Last year, Marvel Games and Netmarble added Sharon Rogers – an alternate reality daughter of Steve Rogers and Peggy Carter who took up the mantle of Captain America – to Marvel Future Fight. This original Marvel character quickly became the most popular heroine in the game’s entire roster. Building on that success, Netmarble has announced the debut of Marvel Future Fight’s newest original character, Korean pop star turned superheroine, Luna Snow.

Responding to local audiences’ request for culturally resonating characters that are also authentically Marvel, Korean developer Netmarble Games Corp., worked closely with Marvel to develop Luna Snow’s powers, personality, visuals, origin, and ongoing story.

“Since Captain America Sharon Rogers’ debut, we continued our push to introduce new and exciting original characters into Marvel Future Fight. Our creative process began when Netmarble Monster expressed an interest in debuting an ice magician character that plays both the role of healing and dealing damage,” said Marvel Games Senior Producer Danny Koo. “We worked closely with Netmarble Monster’s art director Jee-Hyung to come up with Luna Snow’s look, which includes an iconic emblem consisting of a half-moon crest that mirrors an ice symbol on her jacket, belt buckles, and of course, her necklace. Her icicle earrings and differently colored eyes, which complete her half-dark and half-light ice look, were meticulously designed with modern Korean K-Pop culture in mind. It was over a bowl of ramen with Bill Rosemann that her hero name popped up into my mind! Seol Hee (Luna Snow’s civilian name) roughly translates to ‘Snow Hope’ and embodies the characteristics of a hero who will step up and help people in need.”

“Marvel has the greatest fans around the world, and they deserve heroes that they can not only cheer on as they fight evil, but also connect with on a personal level,” said Marvel Games Executive Creative Director Bill Rosemann. “From her underdog beginnings as a young woman trying to realize her dreams, to her noble sacrifice which results in her gaining phenomenal powers, Luna Snow is a strong modern warrior who represents everyone who struggles with great obstacles but still rises to face their challenges. We are honored to join our friends at Netmarble and once again add another new star to the Marvel Universe!”

“We are very proud that the second original character born of our game, Marvel Future Fight, is of Korean nationality,” added Netmarble Monster and Marvel Future Fight Art Director Jee-Hyung Lee. “While Luna Snow began her career as a K-pop artist, she is expressed as a strong, charismatic, and sophisticated female warrior in our game. As a hero of dualistic nature, holding the power of both White and Dark Ice, we believe Luna Snow is sure to make the new year ‘Icy Hot’!”

Seol Hee was an aspiring singer in the care of her elderly grandmother, following the tragic deaths of her parents. While performing at Stark Industries, the party was attacked by the science-obsessed organization known as A.I.M. After being locked in a hi-tech storage freezer, Seol was exposed to the contents of an advanced cold-fusion energy experiment – unexpectedly granting her control over frozen elements. Using her newfound powers, Seol defeated the A.I.M. forces’ attack. Dubbed “Luna Snow” by the press, Seol’s heroic actions made her an overnight sensation. Now, she uses her talents and powers as a part-time pop star and full-time superheroine. 

To celebrate this new character, Netmarble will open a preregistration event from January 12-23, 2018 where players can sign up to learn more about this unique new character. By preregistering, players will unlock in-game crystals and other rewards. The rewards increase in value as the total number of preregistered players increases – so the more people that sign up, the more everyone gets rewarded. 

After the preregistration period has ended, Marvel Future Fight will unveil Luna Snow’s story and video, sharing Marvel’s newest superhero with the rest of the world. Marvel Future Fight is available worldwide on the App Store and Google Play.
