If you can’t afford to unlock either of them with your current gold, then you’re again looking at paying money. Furthermore, the increased candy earnings only apply if you play as Gizmo or the newly released Stripe, at least until you unlock a Halloween costume. You’re most likely going to have to open your wallet if you want a particular outfit, much less the whole set. Their prices vary, but they’re still not cheap. The other five will cost you Gleamium, MultiVersus’ premium currency. Only two of them - Mummy Reindog and Calico Cake (for Adventure Time‘s Jake) - can be purchased using earned candy. But given that there’s no cost to try it, and you can earn in-game currency to purchase unlocks and earn characters, it should attract plenty of players looking to rise through the ranks, even if it’s just to be able to see Harley Quinn in their favorite outfit or to unlock a cool Batman emote.However, there’s a big caveat for anyone looking to unlock these cool costumes. Ultimate exist (and offer far more characters for a fair price), it likely wouldn’t stand a chance on the market as-is. If you needed to purchase it, when games like Super Smash Bros. The fact that MultiVersus is a free-to-play game will likely be its saving grace, however, because while there’s a decent amount of content to explore, the fact that there are so few characters at this time is a bit disappointing. And for me, at least, new characters and cosmetics are going to get me in and playing much faster than anything else. It is planned as a live service game, after all. However, with its battle pass availability and the way the game metes out unlockables, it will likely offer new characters quite often. There are additional characters supposedly on the way both before and after the game's debut, but nothing has been confirmed just yet. Each have their own variants with different costumes and palette swaps for when you fight against other characters, and you can unlock those as you play.Īs for what’s to come, I assume there will be plenty of extras on their way at some point, and more information about what to expect from the Battle Pass. That means you can pit Batman against Superman, Finn the Human against Shaggy Rogers, Tom & Jerry against Bugs Bunny, and so on. That includes the DC Universe, Looney Tunes, Game of Thrones, Adventure Time, Steven Universe, Scooby-Doo, The Iron Giant, and Tom & Jerry. Currently, there are 15 known playable characters in MultiVersus from across eight different Warner Bros. It goes much further than you may be imagining, which I found refreshing.Īfter you complete the tutorial, you can jump in and choose a character. There’s a wide variety of movements to pull off, with satisfying combos, aerial moves, and even special abilities for certain characters to pull teammates back from the brink of falling off the map. From there, the game is happy to hold your hand and teach you how to pull off the various movesets for each character as well as default controls you’ll need to know if you want to survive. You start off by completing a lengthy tutorial that shows you the ropes and lets you unlock a character right off the bat for your trouble (Wonder Woman). So much so that MultiVersus being entertaining comes as a pleasant surprise. It shouldn’t be difficult to make a game like Smash that you actually want to play, but alas, it is, considering how many titles have failed and attempted to recreate the formula. After spending some time with the Closed Alpha, I’m pleased to say that MultiVersus goes a bit deeper than that – and it’s actually fun to play. So much so that you could call it a complete ripoff, but here, that’s not a bad thing. Yes, at its core, it’s pretty much exactly like Super Smash Bros. So, the elephant in the room still needs to be addressed. MultiVersus is an upcoming free-to-play fighting game that throws characters like Batman, Arya Stark, and Velma Dinkley into battle across various stages, where each combatant attempts to knock their opponents out of bounds. Interactive Entertainment's MultiVersus is. But there's still plenty of room for alternatives, especially if they're as fun as Player First Games and Warner Bros. There's no topping the greatest crossover brawler ever, Super Smash Bros.
