The game is due to launch free-to-play in 2022 on PC, PlayStations, and Xboxes, with cross-platform play. You can sign up for playtests onits site.

“We’ve built MultiVersus from the ground up to be a cooperative, social game that embraces teamwork and strategy,” Huynh said in today’s announcement. “We’re also focused on providing first class online gameplay through dedicated server-based rollback netcode so that friends and rivals can enjoy a seamless competitive experience as they duke it out with our diverse roster of characters.”

The name ‘MultiVersus’ made me groan because I’m so done with the endless crossover culture throwing everything into everything, but then I realised it could have been built on NFTs as ‘MetaVersus’ and suddenly I became thankful. Whew. Dodged a bullet! Unlike Batman’s parents.
