I'll be real, when servers for MultiVersus went down in June last year with the promise of a 2024 comeback, I was apprehensive as to whether it would even resurface. Pulling your game offline for a whole-ass year is a bold move. While I'm still not convinced that MultiVersus will be able to rein back in its initial momentum, after having some hands-on time with the new version earlier this month, I have to commend Player First Games for bouncing back with a genuinely massively improved experience.
MultiVersus 2.0 (not what they're calling it, for the record) feels tighter, weightier and a hell of a lot easier on the eyes to play. While it's still mired by a dizzying array of microtransactions, daily missions and add-ons—which I feel have gotten worse since the original version—there's plenty more to do here that I feel will keep veterans happy and get new players on board.
