Marvel Champions: The Card Game is getting its first dedicated Shadowland content with a new Scenario Pack built around Daredevil, Elektra, and the Hand. It is a brand-new product for a cooperative deckbuilding line that has been quietly expanding its Marvel Universe roster for years.
Retailer listings across Asmodee's own store, GameNerdz, Flipside Gaming, and Cardhaus all point to the same release window, which matters for a product line where dates sometimes shift between announcement and shelf.
The pack is also a direct follow-up to this summer's Fear No Evil expansion, continuing a story arc rather than standing alone as an unrelated release.
Here is what the 90-card pack actually contains, when it lands, and how it connects to the rest of the Fear No Evil cycle.
Multiple retailers, including the official Asmodee store, GameNerdz, Flipside Gaming, and Cardhaus, list October 16, 2026 as the Shadowland Scenario Pack's release date. This is worth stating plainly because an earlier internal planning note at EVORETRO had pointed to October 6, which does not match any retailer listing found during independent verification for this piece.
Fantasy Flight Games' own announcement article, published July 27, 2026, confirms the pack arrives this October without naming an exact day, so the October 16 figure should be treated as retailer consensus rather than a direct FFG-stamped date until FFG's own product page lists a specific day.
The Shadowland Scenario Pack is an extra-large, 90-card scenario pack, noticeably bigger than a standard Marvel Champions scenario pack. It includes three brand-new scenarios built around the Hand, their ninjas and acolytes, and the demon Krahllak, who leads the organization from the shadows.
Unlike a Hero Pack, there is no new playable hero inside this box. Everything here is encounter content meant to be played against heroes you already own, with Daredevil as the thematic headline matchup given his history with the Hand and Hell's Kitchen.
The three scenarios are Shadows in the Night, a siege on the Hand's Shadowland fortress with a variable villain drawn from six possible Dark Protégés; Shadow Labyrinth, which trades a traditional villain for a Shifting Corridors mechanic built on passage counters and a dedicated trap deck; and a final confrontation with Krahllak himself, where he inflicts a new Creeping Corruption status on every hero.
Each scenario is designed to work as a standalone one-off, but FFG's announcement notes you can also play all three sequentially as a short campaign, something the line has not done since the MojoMania Scenario Pack. That makes Shadowland a rare scenario pack that doubles as a mini-campaign box.
Michael Boggs, one of Marvel Champions' original designers before he left Fantasy Flight Games in 2022, returns as a guest designer on this pack. That is a notable detail for longtime players, since it is effectively one of the game's co-creators coming back to design new content for a system he helped build.
FFG frames this explicitly as a returning-designer collaboration rather than a brand-new hire taking over, which tends to carry weight with a game's existing community in a way a fully unfamiliar design credit would not.
Shadowland is the third release in a cycle that started with the Fear No Evil deluxe expansion on July 24, 2026, introducing Daredevil and Echo as new playable heroes against Bullseye, Electro, Purple Man, and Kingpin. The Jessica Jones and Luke Cage Hero Packs followed on August 21, 2026, rounding out the Defenders-adjacent cast before Shadowland's October release.
The cycle continues after Shadowland with Elektra and Iron Fist Hero Packs, which Fantasy Flight Games has confirmed for this November without a locked exact day, with retailer listings currently split between November 13 and November 20, 2026. Those two packs are being covered separately elsewhere, but it is worth knowing the full shape of the cycle before deciding how much of it to collect.
A scenario pack this size effectively functions like a mini-expansion without the deckbuilding commitment of a new hero, since every table that owns any core set can immediately shuffle these scenarios into rotation. That lowers the barrier to trying new content compared to a Hero Pack, which requires actually building around the new character first.
It also gives existing Daredevil and Elektra decks a thematically tied challenge to run against, which is a meaningful draw for players who already picked up Fear No Evil earlier this summer.
Retailer consensus across multiple sources points to October 16, 2026.
No, it is encounter-only content with three scenarios and no new playable hero.
It is an extra-large scenario pack with 90 cards.
Michael Boggs, a returning former Marvel Champions designer, guest-designed the pack.
Yes, they can be played standalone or sequentially as a short three-scenario campaign.
Standard Marvel Champions cards use the same 63.5x88mm sizing as mainstream TCGs, so your existing EVORETRO stock already fits this release; stage a magnetic deck box now so new encounter cards have a home the day they arrive.
