MultiVersus adds Marvin the Martian and Game of Thrones stage in Season 2

By Cristina Alexander Published November 15, 2022

MultiVersus season 2 has just begun, and Warner Bros. Games and Player First Games have announced a couple of new additions to the game: Marvin the Martian and a new stage based on Game of Thrones.

Marvin the Martian is the third Looney Tunes character to be added to the MultiVersus fighters roster after Bugs Bunny and Taz — or fourth if you include LeBron James from Space Jam: A New Legacy. The polite alien will come with his trademark Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator explosive device, powerful blaster, and spaceship-summoning abilities. His full move set will be revealed at a later time.

The Game of Thrones stage will be set in the famous Throne Room, which has the halls decked with the great Iron Throne and the finest pitfalls and hazards that can only be found in Westeros. It also comes with an all-new remix of the show’s iconic theme song, which has been composed with multiple sections that transition dynamically depending on the intensity of the match.

Arya Stark is the only Game of Thrones character on the MultiVersus roster so far. And with her brother, Jon Snow, and distant relative, Daenerys Targaryen, not coming to the game any time soon, it’s only fair that she would feel right at home in the new arena. The Throne Room map will be released at a later date.

In the meantime, you can earn other new items and variants that come with the MultiVersus season 2 Battle Pass, including the Baker Street Tom and Jerry, Tea Time Reindog and a Pixel Finn profile icon. The premium Battle Pass includes variants for Astronaut Velma and Maestro Bugs, and the Arya Yawn taunt. And starting today, you can buy even more variants, including Samurai Batman, Evil Morty, and Fern Finn.

All the free characters in MultiVersus right now

A large group of DC and Warner Bros characters stand together in MultiVersus.

Taking a page from other free-to-play games with large rosters, such as League of Legends, MultiVersus gives players multiple ways to experiment with new characters. Without playing to earn enough gold to completely unlock a character, you can always play the full roster in training or local modes. However, that won't be the way most people want to play, and with more and more characters planned to come to this crossover fighter, even the most dedicated players will have trouble earning enough currency to unlock them all.

That's where the rotation of free characters becomes so valuable. MultiVersus rotates which characters in its roster are free for everyone bi-monthly, or every two weeks, with the current offering being four free characters at a time. Here are the characters you can play as, free of charge, right now.

Black Adam comes to MultiVersus alongside arcade mode

After two months of waiting, DC's Black Adam will finally join the battle on MultiVersus later this week. And in a shock to fans (literally and figuratively) he's also bringing Arcade Mode to the game with him.

Warner Bros. Games and Player First Games released a teaser trailer on Twitter last night of a 1980s-style TV commercial showing a MultiVersus arcade machine and Black Adam showing up on the screen in pixel form to the sound of thunder before the lightning causes a blackout. As shown in the banner for Season 1, the Black Adam that will come to the game is based on the comic books, not the DCEU version played by Dwayne Johnson in the latest film, Black Adam.

MultiVersus Halloween event guide and rewards

It seems that every game with an online element, especially those that are free-to-play, is getting in on the Halloween spirit. Whether they're shooters, RPGs, or, in this case, fighters, there is always a fun way to bring in the spooky season with a new mode, event, and special rewards. For MultiVersus, this holiday will be a major one, as not only will the new character Stripe be introduced with the patch, but there will also be an entire host of Halloween content.

Unlike some other larger-scale games, MultiVersus can't exactly create brand-new dedicated game types just for Halloween, as much as we'd be excited if they did. However, that hasn't stopped the team from adding some sweet incentives for playing and a new little layer to the game that will let you get your hands on some brand-new rewards that you can't get any other way. Here's a full guide on the Halloween event in MultiVersus and what rewards you can snag.
