[Report] Warner Bros. Working On Multiversus Fighting Game; Features Batman, Shaggy, Gandalf

The 2D arena brawler is going to get a bit crowded if this recent rumour is true.

Warner Bros. is working on a 2D platformer fighting game that is similar to the Super Smash Bros. series and Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl. The game will be called MultiVersus (via Reddit).

The game will be worked on by a Warner Bros. in-house studio; it will not be worked on by fighting game developer NetherRealm Studios.

Characters-wise, here’s an alleged leaked screencap of the game’s current roster from Super Smash Bros. Ultimate pro gamer Juan Manuel “Hungrybox” DeBiedma. The characters in the roster are:

• Superman
• Steven Universe
• Finn (Adventure Time)
• Jake the Dog (Adventure Time)
• Batman
• Harley Quinn
• Superman
• Wonder Woman
• Gandalf The Grey
• Rick Sanchez (Rick & Morty)
• Bugs Bunny
• Tom & Jerry
• Shaggy (from Scooby-Doo)
• A new character – a bear with antlers

y’all thought I was lying, huh?

Other characters in the game include Mad Max, Fred Flintstone, and Johnny Bravo. There’s probably a good chance the game will be showcased at the PlayStation State of Play later at 5am today; until then, take all of this with a grain of salt.
