Kabam is announcing today that it is taking its Marvel: Contest of Champions action-fighting mobile game to China, one of the largest markets in the world. It has already been downloaded more than 30 million times since it was released last year — and with the hundreds of millions of gamers in China, it could find even more success in a market that’s mad for American brands like The Avengers, Spider-Man, and other heroes.

Among a million apps in the Apple iTunes App Store, Marvel: Contest of Champions is No. 15 in the top-grossing list today, and it’s ranked high for months.
