Warner Bros. Games announced that MultiVersus, the free-to-play platform fighter videogame, has officially launched on PlayStation®5 (PS5™) and PlayStation 4 consoles, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One consoles, and PC (Steam and Epic Games Store) with full cross-play and cross-progression support.
Developed by Player First Games with production support and live management by Warner Bros. Games San Diego, MultiVersus features an ever-expanding roster of popular characters based on Warner Bros. Discovery franchises, and starting today, Season 1: Puns & Villainy brings new playable fighters into the mix with DC Super-Villain The Joker, Jason Voorhees from the Friday the 13th horror movie franchise, and Banana Guard from Adventure Time, along with Agent Smith from The Matrix film series, who will join the cast later in the season.
MultiVersus launches with the addition of an all-new PvE (Player vs. Environment) mode called Rifts with unexpected twists that offer a different way to experience the game outside of competitive PvP (Player vs. Player) matches. The game’s fun-filled bouts continue to be set against the backdrop of various reimagined environments, including new maps inspired by the Dexter’s Laboratory and The Powerpuff Girls animated series, which are available now.
The Joker (DC), Jason Voorhees (Friday the 13th), Banana Guard (Adventure Time), and Agent Smith (The Matrix) join the lineup of Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Harley Quinn, and Black Adam; Shaggy and Velma (Scooby-Doo); Bugs Bunny, Tasmanian Devil a.k.a. Taz, and Marvin the Martian (Looney Tunes); Arya Stark (Game of Thrones); Tom & Jerry (Tom and Jerry); Finn the Human and Jake the Dog (Adventure Time); Steven Universe and Garnet (Steven Universe); Iron Giant (The Iron Giant), LeBron James (Space Jam: A New Legacy); Rick Sanchez and Morty Smith (Rick and Morty); Gizmo and Stripe (Gremlins); and an extraordinary original creature named Reindog, to round out the current roster, with more fighters to be added as part of future seasonal updates.
