MultiVersus from WB
Already announced and in the mouths of many specialists, the "Smash" -like WB has been officialised.
The game will be released in 2022, it is a fighting game focused on 2v2 team combat. Other modes and single player mode will naturally also be available. However, the creators have placed great emphasis on playing co-op.
From the presentation video we could see some characters like Batman, Superman and Wonderwoman. However, WB has so many licenses available, we can imagine that we will be entitled to many other characters. For a taste, we noticed that there is Shaggy from de Scouby Doo, Tom & Jerry, Bugs Bunny just as much available as the classic DC characters.
Each has its own properties, attacks and possibilities for cooperation. For example, Bugs Bunny can tunnel on the battle platform that his ally can also use.
There will therefore be a lot of combinations between the characters that will be possible and it will be necessary to demonstrate strategic knowledge in order to be able to beat his opponents. Not only the quickest combo player can hope to win, but the one who knows how to use strategy as well. It will take a combination of direct and tactical confrontation and it already sounds like a lot of fun.
As the mechanics of the game are also cooperative, this gives a different dimension to the game. It is clear that it will take a certain chemistry between the two players on the same team in order to be able to win. It goes without saying that the accomplices will have to play (often) together to see good results.
Another good news is that it will be Free to play. The graphics are really beautiful and faithful to the cartoons of the different characters. We haven't seen more, but we are already sure that many characters can be added to the list of available characters. In addition to not paying anything to have the game, it will be Cross-play and Cross-Save. So you can play with anyone on all platforms and switch platforms without losing your progress.
The game is announced for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Series X / S and PC. No Nintendo Switch for the moment which is still a shame. I had an example made to praise the benefits of a cross-play / save. Well, it won't be for now.
I'm already looking forward to seeing Dumbledore vs. Superman or Bugs Bunny vs. Aragorn. I can already imagine the crazy combinations between Hermione and Wonderwoman to kick Tom & Jerry's butt. This game seems very promising and to be able to evolve over time. The battle platforms are also stylish. The Bat-cave that we were able to see was superb. Another platform where a superb statue of Wonderwoman is visible in the background also has its effect.
The game really seems to bring something more that other games of this genre haven't. Hopefully the game can really meet the expectations and give us fun with all these iconic characters and so different from each other!
In the meantime, good game to all!
