MultiVersus Season 1: all the new features One of the main highlights of Season 1 is the inclusion of a new character: Morty, (yes, the one from Rick and Morty, as it is evident), but for that, we will have to wait until August 23rd. The important thing to look forward to in this afternoon's update is the multitude of changes and adjustments to the gameplay, characters and game modes.
New free characters entering the rotation MultiVersus is committed to a system designed so that we can try out all the characters. Depending on the moment, some of them appear for free or for a fee. And today's new rotation includes the following: Batman, Arya, Steven and LeBron James.
Changes to the interface, rewards and gameplay The characters that enter the rotation are distinguished by a unique icon. Seasonal quests have reduced requirements to complete them. Ice Debuff – Movement speed slow at 1 stack reduced from 20% to 15%. Some bugs related to the frozen state have also been fixed. Added a preview of the characters before unlocking the corresponding pack. Multiple fixes in terms (words) and pop-up and navigation texts. Experience rewards in the Battle Pass have increased their requirements: 10 victories and 5 defeats (until now they were 5 and 3, respectively). Fixed a bug that affected the projectile launch speed. Fixed some bugs affecting tutorials. There will be a second patch with fixes of this type soon. Changes in characters All MultiVersus characters have undergone small adjustments in elements such as skill recharge time, range of some attacks, weight values, mobility of some aerial moves and different bugs that affected the way of playing with some fighters. For example, when being hit by Jerry, a temporary projectile blocking state is automatically generated.
