Second Dinner has revealed the Marvel Snap Spotlight Cache schedule for the month of September 2023. The schedule includes exciting new cards, such as Alioth, Ravonna Renslayer, and Mobius M. Mobius.
The Spotlight Cache is a game-changing feature set to revolutionize the acquisition of newly released cards, Series 4, and Series 5 cards alike in Marvel Snap. This feature comes alive once a player surpasses Collection Level (CL) 500, replacing Collector’s Caches and Collector’s Reserves every 120CL.
But what truly sets the Spotlight Cache apart is the guarantee it offers: a featured card or a random Series 4 or 5 card each time you open one of these special caches.
Here’s everything you need to know about the Marvel Snap Spotlight Cache schedule.

Spotlight Cache in Marvel Snap: How it Works
The Spotlight Cache, a fresh feature in Marvel Snap, is a new reward box that shows up on the CL track, packed with S4/S5 cards and their variants. Its unique draw is that it offers players more cards than ever, including exclusive, time-limited Spotlight Variants, making every draw a potentially exciting game-changer.
Introduced from CL 500 onwards, Spotlight Caches supersede Collector’s Caches and Collector’s Reserves every 120 CL. They contain a standalone reward pool of four items, starting as cards and morphing into variants if you already own the card. As you draw from the pool, it shrinks, so after four draws, you’re guaranteed to have each reward in a pool.
Each week, the reward pool resets, and it contains three specific S4/S5 cards chosen by the dev team and a random S4/S5 card.
Given that you’d need to accrue 40 Collector’s Reserves (or 480 CL) in a week to claim every reward from a single pool, saving up your Spotlight Caches for particularly appealing reward pools could be a savvy strategy. As a bonus, the devs will announce upcoming reward pools at the start of each season to help with your planning.
That’s everything you need to know about the Marvel Snap Spotlight Cache schedule. The roster will change every week and new updates will be released every season so be sure to check back here for more details.
