MultiVersus PS5 PS4 PlayStation

MultiVersus brings together characters from across the Warner Bros. extended universe, and pits them against each other in glorious combat. The title is live now via its open beta test, and everything you unlock will carry over into the full version of the game when it launches.

As reported by VGC, there are 16 characters currently available in the beta, with four playable from the get-go. You get Wonder Woman by completing the tutorial; another 11 can be unlocked. What's interesting, then, is that there's an item available through the Premium Edition of MultiVersus' various Founders Packs that suggests an additional 19 will be coming to the game.

The Premium Edition of the game comes with 30 Character Tokens, which can be used to unlock a character instantly, or you can earn Gold in-game or spend real money on Gleamium in order to do the same.

So, if you were to purchase the Premium Edition Founders Pack, and unlock the 11 characters present in the beta, you would be left with 19 Character Tokens. This suggests that at least that many characters are still coming to the game.

In addition, this mostly lines up with the leaks we got ahead of the game's launch. Over on Reddit, the person who leaked the existence of MultiVersus in the first place predicted a further 21 characters would be coming to the game, although whether they all make the cut remains to be seen.

The following characters, according to the leak, are "mostly finished", which is a claim that has merit because of datamined information, including voice lines that backs up their inclusion:

  • Joker – DC
  • Raven – DC
  • Gizmo – Gremlins
  • Marvin the Martian – Looney Tunes
  • Lebron James – NBA
  • Rick – Rick and Morty
  • Morty – Rick and Morty
  • Scooby-Doo – Scooby-Doo
  • Daenerys – Game of Thrones
  • The Hound – Game of Thrones
  • Wicked Witch – The Wizard of Oz
  • Godzilla – Godzilla

The following characters are reportedly also coming to the game, but are in various stages of early development:

  • Johnny Bravo – Johnny Bravo
  • Fred Flinstone – Flinstones
  • Samurai Jack – Samurai Jack
  • The Powerpuff Girls – Powerpuff Girls (all one fighter)
  • The Animaniacs – The Animaniacs (all one fighter)
  • Duck Dodgers/Daffy – Looney Tunes
  • Scorpion – Mortal Kombat
  • Ben 10 – Ben 10
  • Ted Lasso – Ted Lasso

According to the same leak, Harry Potter and Mad Max were in the works at some point, but are currently on hold for unknown reasons.

The Premium Edition Founders Pack also includes three tokens for Premium Battle Passes, suggesting three seasons of content at least in which these characters could be introduced to the game.

What do you think of this list of characters? Are there any others you would like to see join the fight? Speculate wildly in the comments section below.
