Highlights

  • MultiVersus is set to relaunch on May 28th with exciting new features.
  • Fans have been teased with the possible addition of Powerpuff Girls and Dexter's Laboratory characters.
  • Anticipate enhanced gameplay experience with improved netcode and fresh character skins.

A recent teaser from MultiVersus has sparked speculation about the potential introduction of the Powerpuff Girls to the game. Player First Games, the developer, had earlier confirmed that the game's relaunch in May would bring in 'new personalities' in addition to various enhancements.

The next chapter of MultiVersus kicks off on May 28th, introducing new stages, balance tweaks, visual enhancements, and a brand-new netcode. While specific stage details remain under wraps, concept art recently unveiled by Player First Games showcased two levels inspired by Dexter's Laboratory and The Powerpuff Girls. The latest teaser sheds more light on the latter setting.

Following a brief video posted by the MultiVersus Twitter account, offering a glimpse of a new Superman skin, eagle-eyed fans noted a resemblance between the video's backdrop and the previously revealed concept art of the Powerpuff Girls stage situated atop Townsville's city hall. The video seemingly shows Superman standing on the city hall's rooftop in-game, hinting at the completion of the stage for the imminent launch. Though it's not officially confirmed if the Powerpuff Girls stage and characters will be available on May 28th, the repeated teases from Player First Games make it increasingly probable. The potential addition of The Powerpuff Girls to MultiVersus has been a long-standing rumor, so this development may not catch dedicated fans off guard.

Potential Arrival of The Powerpuff Girls in MultiVersus

There's also speculation about the inclusion of Dexter, the protagonist of Dexter's Laboratory, another highly requested character, in MultiVersus. While fans currently only have access to Player First's concept art of the Dexter's Laboratory stage, the developer has hinted at forthcoming announcements about new features as the relaunch date nears, likely including details about new characters. However, akin to The Powerpuff Girls, Dexter's potential debut remains unconfirmed.

Besides new stages and characters, players can look forward to a revamped netcode in MultiVersus. The updated version will employ a rollback netcode specially crafted for Player First's fighting game, promising notable enhancements in gameplay fluidity and matchmaking.

Player First has also teased a range of new character skins for MultiVersus, such as a skin for Finn from Adventure Time showcasing his robotic arm, as well as cel-shaded versions of Superman, Velma from Scooby-Doo, Taz from Looney Tunes, Jake from Adventure Time, and LeBron James. Additionally, the developer confirmed forthcoming gameplay adjustments for several characters.
