Warner Bros’ crossover platform-fighter/advertising and marketing orgy MultiVersus remains to be technically in open beta, however that hasn’t stopped it from going exhausting on seasonal content material and battle passes. MultiVersus Season 2 has simply begun, and among the many updates coming at an unannounced date over its course are Marvin the Martian as a playable fighter, and a map based mostly on Sport of Thrones.
In MultiVersus, Marvin will probably be doing battle with characters like Superman, Arya Stark, the Iron Large, and Velma from Scooby-Doo “along with his Illudium Q-36 Explosive Area Modulator explosive system, highly effective blaster and spaceship summoning talents.”
You may know Marvin because the man who will get foiled by Bugs Bunny when he tries to explode the Earth (which obstructs his view of Venus) utilizing that Illudium Q-36 Explosive Area Modulator, which positive appears to be like like a cartoon stick of dynamite. He wears the armor of an historical hoplite in reference to the Roman struggle god Mars, a reality I solely realized as we speak and move on to you now.
The Sport of Thrones map is predicated on the throne room in King’s Touchdown, which apparently means it’s going to let gamers “hurl opponents away from the Iron Throne” and have a wide range of “Westeros based mostly hazards”. Whether or not that is extra prone to imply dragon assaults or wedding-related betrayals I depart as an train for the reader. It’s going to additionally include a remix of the TV present’s theme music, which I am hoping will sound just like the fantastic model sung by the actors enjoying the Stark youngsters over the credit of the DVD commentary (opens in new tab).
MultiVersus Season 2 brings extra free objects gamers can earn like a Sherlock Holmes-themed Tom & Jerry pores and skin, Pixel Finn profile icon, and a Tea Time pores and skin for Reindog, the unique character created for MultiVersus who no one cares about. Premium unlockables that may be earned by those that pay for the battle move embody Astronaut Velma and Maestro Bugs skins, and a yawn taunt for Arya Stark. In the meantime, the in-game retailer is now promoting Samurai Batman, Evil Morty, and Fern Finn skins.
We have recognized Marvin was prone to be added to MultiVersus based mostly on early datamined leaks that additionally included characters who’ve but to be introduced, like Godzilla, Gandalf and Legolas from The Lord of the Rings, and the Joker, as voiced by Mark Hamill.
