FIRST PLAY MULTIVERSUS PS5, PS4, XSX, XB1, PC
With the Super Smash Bros series seemingly bowing out at its peak, or at least requiring some time before it can reinvent itself, it might be time for a new generation to muscle in on the platform fighter genre.
While past attempts such as Brawlhalla may have been mechanically sound, they lacked the secret sauce of Smash’s appeal: the franchise crossover element, letting you play as all sorts of iconic characters. So we’ve already seen last year’s Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl… but a challenger with the IP vault to really back it up is MultiVersus, which summons characters from across the Warner universe – Looney Tunes, DC Comics, Scooby Doo, Game Of Thrones – to duke it out. We dare say it’s a better execution of the multiverse than Space Jam: A New Legacy.
