It's time to hop in your space cruisers and grab your portal guns because Rick is finally here and playable in MultiVersus. To celebrate, developer Player First has uploaded a detailed gameplay trailer showing off some of Rick's moves along with some of the references to the show that have been incorporated into them.
Since Rick is classified as a Mage, most of his strongest attacks involve some kind of ranged element. For example, a big part of Rick's moveset has you using Mr. Meseeks to the best of your ability, having him charge up a strong attack with a golf club, make him flail his arms at foes to knock them back, and even use him as a recovery to glide back onto the stage.

Other ranged attacks that are a part of Rick's arsenal include his trusty blaster which is your standard attack, as well as a set of portals you can use to whack enemies through to help chain combos. Rick's polymorph ability can also be used to transform characters and Rick can even use a Mega Seed to attack enemies above him, silencing them in the process. There are a bunch of other small references in Rick's moveset, as is the case with most characters, and you can jump in for a match to play as him right now.
As for what else MultiVersus' latest patch brought along with Rick, aside from all the standard buffs and nerfs we also got a change to the game's XP system. Characters will now take twice as long to level up, as Player First has explained that it wants a player's experience mastering a characters to feel like "a bit more of a journey."
