MultiVersus announces DLC characters Samurai Jack and Beetlejuice

MultiVersus

Publisher Warner Bros. Games and developer Player First Games announced new characters for MultiVersus, the beloved Samurai Jack and the demented specter Beetlejuice.

While the time-traveling warrior Samurai Jack is coming alongside MultiVersus Season 2 on July 23rd, Beetlejuice is coming later in the season. It’s worth noting Beetlejuice was leaked awhile ago alongside the Wicked Witch.

Here’s a rundown on both new characters, plus a trailer:

Warner Bros. Games today announced that MultiVersus will be adding Samurai Jack and Beetlejuice to its growing roster of characters as part of Season 2: Back in Time. The troublesome ghost Beetlejuice (a.k.a. Betelgeuse) will arrive later in the season, in advance of the upcoming Warner Bros. Pictures film Beetlejuice Beetlejuice sequel to Beetlejuice (1988), only in theaters on Sept. 6 in North America and beginning Sept. 4 internationally.

After being flung into the future by the evil demon Aku, the warrior known as Samurai Jack embarked on a relentless quest to return to the past. With his unmatched swordsmanship and incredible agility, he’s truly a force to be reckoned with, and in the new MultiVersus gameplay trailer, Samurai Jack’s fighting skills as a Bruiser class character are on full display, which utilize his mystical katana blade, agile footwork, and quick reflexes to send opponents flying off the map. The video also provides a first look at the Righteous Warrior Jack character variant, which will be available for in-game purchase on July 23.

Additionally, Ranked mode will be added to MultiVersus at the start of Season 2 on July 23, giving players the opportunity to participate in 1 vs. 1 and 2 vs. 2 matches while competing for leaderboard points to earn exclusive rank-based cosmetic rewards. Season 2 will also include the Water Tower, a new map where players can battle on the iconic Warner Bros. Water Tower, with surprise nods to popular Warner Bros. Discovery characters and franchises.

 

MultiVersus hit full release in May 2024 across Windows PC (via Steam), Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5.
