MultiVersus incorporates a massive roster of Warner Bros’ intellectual properties intertwined in the same universe. From Shaggy to Batman standing side by side to Bugs Bunny materializing out of nowhere, the game presents with nostalgic characters all put against each other to throw hands in this outlandish platform fighter.
