Can you play local multiplayer in MultiVersus?
MultiVersus is a fantastic new entry to the unique genre of party fighters that mainly revolves around Nintendo's Smash Bros. This new free-to-play fighting game has a roster and gameplay designed to shake up the genre for everybody.
In the modern era of gaming, players hoping to enjoy a game in person seem to have fewer new options with each passing year. Tons of games that once lived and died on groups of friends have dropped their in-person gameplay. However, MultiVersus is designed first and foremost for online one-on-one and two-on-two matches, but does it feature local multiplayer?
Fortunately, MultiVersus features robust local multiplayer alongside its online features. Players can enjoy the game with their friends right beside them; the option just isn't quite as visible on the menu.
To start a local match, players have to open the game and select the Play option. From there, they will have to open the Custom Game tab and click on Local Play. This will start a local match, and they can pick and choose their match settings at will.
The game is not finished, but it's worth noting that Warner Bros.'s party fighter doesn't have a lot of match options. Those used to the myriad of weird battles in something like Super Smash Bros. may have to wait a while to see if those are added in.
Currently, local matches feature three options. Players can battle one-on-one or team up for a two-on-two battle. There's also a Free-For-All option if players want to throw down without any alliances.
Players can change the number of ringouts and the time duration of the match to set how long the fight might take. They can also choose to enable or disable stage hazards to make the match a bit more skill-focused.
