There was always potential in MultiVersus. After all, any game that lets Batman wrestle Shaggy from Scooby Doo will automatically draw attention. However, the free-to-play platform fighter is quickly exceeding all expectations.
On Wednesday, Warner Bros. made the announcement that MultiVersus has passed more than 20 million players worldwide across all platforms. The open beta period only began on July 26, 2022, meaning MultiVersus achieved this in under a month. Perhaps more impressive, the game doubled its previous record in only two weeks. Hear that? Everyone that was laughing about Arya Stark hip-tossing the cast of Adventure Time is currently chowing down on some crow.

The content rollout for MultiVersus has been relatively solid thus far. Season 1 introduces us to Morty, who joins the roster on Aug. 23, 2022. Not to mention Black Adam and Stripe from Gremlins are dropping soon too. Rick Sanchez is coming soon as well! Isn’t the character lineup in this fun? Rumored additions like Johnny Bravo and Ted Lasso prove that the development team is having fun.
Remember, MultiVersus is free on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC with cross-progression and cross-play to boot. So the barrier of entry is quite low.
