MultiVersus Preview: Warner Bros. Brawl
MultiVersus is an upcoming crossover fighting game that brings together characters from DC Comics, Steven Universe, Scooby-Doo, Adventure Time, Tom & Jerry, and more. The game is currently in development and Screen Rant had a chance to take part in the closed alpha period, ahead of an open beta that is set to happen in July. MultiVersus is still rough around the edges (as to be expected for an alpha period), but it has some interesting takes on the fighting game formula, especially as a team-based competitive title.
MultiVersus brings characters from Warner Bros. franchises into one fighting game. The roster in the closed alpha included Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and Harley Quinn from DC Comics, Steven and Garnet from Steven Universe, Shaggy and Velma from Scooby-Doo, Finn and Jake from Adventure Time, Bugs Bunny, Taz the Tasmanian Devil, Tom & Jerry, Arya Stark from Game of Thrones, and a brand new character called Reindog. It has been confirmed that the Iron Giant will be coming to the full version of MultiVersus. The game also features stages from these franchises, such as the Bat Cave. MultiVersus will be free-to-play, with an optional Battle Pass that will grant different outfits, emotes, and the premium Token currency that is used to unlock characters and improve moves.
