MultiVersus' Open Beta Will Act as Soft Launch
It is quite clear from the success of games like Super Smash Bros. Ultimate that gamers love crossover titles. For the first time, they can finally answer the question of who would win in a fight between Minecraft Steve and Sephiroth from Final Fantasy 7. Other companies have sought to recreate the success of Super Smash Bros. with their own platform fighters combining characters from a multitude of different IPs. Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl combined multiple cartoon characters from the TV network, and now MultiVersus looks to make a load of Warner Bros. characters duke it out.
Hype for MultiVersus has been building ever since it was first unveiled back in 2021. Even being officially revealed less than a year ago, MultiVersus has since shown off gameplay, new characters added to its already expansive roster, and plans an open beta launch in July. While there hasn't been an official date set for when MultiVersus' beta will release to fans, the game's director seemingly has big plans for it.

Tony Huynh, MultiVersus' director, recently was asked whether the open beta would be a timed test, or if it would last until the official release of the final game. Huynh since said that the open beta will hopefully be permanent, unless the team working on MultiVersus finds some «really awful bugs.» This means that the open beta of MultiVersus will essentially launch the game, almost in a demo format with less initial content. But, things like new characters, maps, and more are likely to be added over time.
As MultiVersus hasn't been given a solid final release date, fans will be glad to know that what they're getting in July will be somewhat near to the final product.
