Multiversus has been making waves with its genius combination of Smash Bros.-like combat and Warner Bros.-owned characters (and a very clear flex of their IPs). You can unleash more than 1% of your power as Shaggy, fly around as Superman, and even wield a basketball as LeBron James. However, Warner Bros. could do so much more, so here are 10 characters we’d love to see in Multiversus next.
The Mask
The Mask is cartoon violence personified, brought into reality to cause chaos, give the wearer seemingly unlimited power, and crack a few jokes when the mood strikes (which is all the time). That’s all the more reason why The Mask should be in Multiversus, specifically Stanley Ipkiss’ version; naturally, Jim Carrey should voice him, too, just to bring in his one-liners. The Mask could fit in just about any role considering his powers. Make it happen, Player First Games!
Betelgeuse
Why in the world wasn’t Betelgeuse (or Beetlejuice) part of the original roster? His whole persona and ghostly powers are perfect for Multiversus; he would fit right in as a Mage or Assassin. Imagine a grapple that causes the sandworm to appear briefly or his head shrinking from losing. Bring Michael Keaton into the mix to voice the lines while you’re at it, too.
Harry Potter
Many would immediately place Harry Potter right into the Mage class, and they wouldn’t be wrong, but due to the nature of spells, he can easily be designed to fit just about any role. On one hand, the developers could fill his kit with offensive spells, making him fit as a Mage or Bruiser; on the other hand, he could just as easily be given abilities that match Assassin or Support, like going invisible or shielding allies.
Ben Tennyson
This one’s a no-brainer, too. For the uninitiated, Ben Tennyson is a 10-year-old child wearing an alien device called the Omnitrix. It gives him the uncanny ability to morph into different species like an Arburian Pelarota and Pyronite, among many others. That means Ben Tennyson could be designed to fit any role based on which forms the developers decided on.
Gollum
Scheming, deceitful, tricksy, quiet, and vicious—that’s Gollum in a nutshell, and he would fit so well as an Assassin. This isn’t the Gollum you know from Lord of the Rings, but a Gollum at the very height of his power, wielding the One Ring. Imagine a Gollum that phases in and out of the wraith-world in between his attacks, making it particularly difficult to defend yourself.
