MultiVersus Reveals Stripe's Move Set

gamerant.com:

The abilities for the upcoming MultiVersus fighter Stripe, villain of the Gremlins franchise, have been shared by Player First Games. This past week Player First shared a trailer for the next character to be introduced to the roster of MultiVersus. It effectively confirmed Stripe was on the way, though the gremlin's name wasn't explicitly mentioned. Today's announcement of Stripe's planned abilities should make it clear, though — Stripe will be playable in MultiVersus soon.

Stripe has been planned for MultiVersus for some time. Player First initially confirmed that Stripe was on the way as part of its MultiVersus Season 1 announcement. The announcement confirmed two upcoming characters for MultiVersus, which were Stripe and Black Adam. Black Adam has yet to be released, but fellow Gremlins character Gizmo arrived in early September. It was only a matter of time before Stripe joined the roster, too, and it seems it's now his turn.

MultiVersus Director Teases the Game's Next 2 Patches

Player First shared a post on Twitter on Friday that offered a «Class Breakdown» for Stripe detailing the character's basic abilities. First, the post confirmed that Stripe would be MultiVersus' next Assassin, joining the likes of Arya Stark, Finn, and Harley Quinn. Then it listed Stripe's three abilities: Nasty Swipes, a physical combo ending with a bite, Chain(saw) Reaction, has Stripe bound forward with a chainsaw, and Sharpshooter, which fires a projectile.

Assassins in MultiVersus are a surprisingly undefined class, though that's a fair criticism for most of the game's classes. They're intended to be highly mobile, somewhat squishy, and high-damage dealers. It's unclear how Stripe will fit into this category looking at his abilities, though
