CMON's Marvel United: X-Men, which completed its Kickstarter campaign Tuesday evening, raised a record amount for a CMON game, enough to place it #8 in our all-time Top 10 Tabletop Game Kickstarter Projects chart.  The latest in CMON’s Marvel United line (see "The X-Men Join ‘Marvel United’") raised $5,988,089 from 25,404 backers.  That per-backer average is the third best all-time, behind only Kingdom Death: Monster 1.5 and the Wyrmwood gaming tables.  The take for Marvel United: X-Men was considerably more than the original Marvel United game, which raised $2.9 million.

The game is expected to street in May 2022.

[Note:  This chart was corrected as of May 10, 2021, 7 p.m. CT, to include three 2020 Kickstarter projects that were inadvertently left off.  Apologies for the error, ed.]
