Crossover fighting gameMultiVersushas enjoyed a great deal of success in its open beta, attracting over 10 million players before its proper launch. NowMultiVersusis kicking off Season 1 with a host of new content and balance changes for fans to check out. One of the main ways that developer Player First Games will be able to keepMultiVersusfans playing the game is by adding new characters, and there will be at least four released for the game before Season 1 is over.
Player First Games has confirmed two more new characters forMultiVersusSeason 1, though they lack release dates at the time of this writing. At some point later in the season,MultiVersusfans can check out Black Adam from DC Comics and Stripe fromGremlins.Rick Sanchez fromRick and Mortyis also going to come to theMultiVersusroster at some point later this season, though Rick’s grandson Morty Smith will be playable much sooner.

So far, Morty is the only newMultiVersusSeason 1 character with an actual release date at the time of this writing.MultiVersusfans can look forward to playing as Morty starting August 23, so just a week from the Season 1 launch date. Like the rest of theMultiVersusroster, Morty is bringing his own unique move set, cosmetics, emotes, and more to the table, so there should be plenty forRick and Mortyfans to check out come August 23.
MultiVersus Season 1 New Characters
MultiVersusSeason 1 is bringing more cosmetics and unlockable content in general, as it is includes the Season 1 Battle Pass. Whereas theMultiVersusopen beta Battle Pass was only 15 tiers, the Season 1 Battle Pass is a whopping 50 tiers, with unique rewards like a Robin outfit forLeBron Jamesand aSpace Jamcostume for Taz.
Something that may be disappointing toMultiVersusfans, though, is that Season 1 is launching without all the content planned for it. While many expected to wait for all the new characters, there were those who were anticipating the addition of new game modes like Arcade and Ranked. Unfortunately,MultiVersusRanked and Arcade modeswill not be added with the Season 1 update and in fact, have no release dates at the time of this writing.
Regardless,MultiVersusSeason 1should have a steady stream of content for fighting game fans to check out, and with four new characters to look forward to, the inaugural season should be plenty exciting from start to finish.
MultiVersusis available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
