MultiVersus is a free-to-play crossover fighting game developed by Player First Games and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment featuring various characters from the Warner Bros. Discovery catalog, including those from Warner Bros., DC Comics, HBO, Turner Entertainment, and Cartoon Network. MultiVersus is a platform fighter game in which players battle on different stages and attempt to knock their opponents outside the boundaries of the arena, similar to Nintendo's Super Smash Brothers franchise.

Characters in MultiVersus are divided into five different categories: assassin, bruiser, mage, support, and tank, which will all be familiar character tropes for players that have played fighters, battle royales, or even role-playing games in the past. As early access to the game progresses and the Open Beta begins, players are excited to find out the different characters that get added to the growing roster.
