The latest update for MultiVersus has gotten rid of Velma's police car. MultiVersus launched last month to mostly positive reviews, with many praising the game as a solid free-to-play alternative to Super Smash Bros. Developer Player First Games has released multiple updates for MultiVersus since launch, tweaking the game's balance, introducing new stages, and adding new characters to the roster. The latest MultiVersus update, besides getting rid of Velma's police car, also added Gizmo from Gremlins to the lineup.

A cop car would then spawn into the game, pick up whoever Velma targeted the attack at, and then try to drive off the stage with the opponent in tow.

Scooby-Doo is one of the most well-represented franchises in MultiVersus at the time of this writing. Besides Velma and her new Mystery Machine, the roster
