honestly I feel like we should give MultiVersus a little credit -
its the first platform fighter with underwater physics at all times

What an absolute shame. MultiVersus had the biggest fighting game release on Steam, releasing with 150k concurrent PC players (not to mention consoles!), only to fumble and drop all of them almost immediately after.
They took the game offline, promising to re-release it when it's better and stronger than ever. Over a year later, and the game releases in an objectively worse state than it was originally, with only a few improvements and massive amounts of microtransactions, disgusting business practices and endless grinds.
Did you know it will take you 200(!!) games to level up a single time in the battlepass if you do not do their challenges (many of which are paid challenges)?
They have made singleplayer challenges where you can PAY to re-try the challenges if you lose, the devs took to twitter to explain that this was "never intended" and that it's a "bug", despite there being in-game tooltips explaining how buying lives work (lol). How much does it cost to get your lives back? $15. And that's only for the first time! The more lives you buy, the more expensive it gets, until you "max out" the price and it tells you to wait for a day until you can buy more lives again. You read that right, they made in-game tooltips, set up a system to make lives more expensive every time you buy them (which can only be bought in too small or too big packs of in-game currencies btw), wrote descriptions and guides for how these lives work, then they call it a "bug".
Many of their community features such as being able to toast great opponents have been either removed or made inconvenient to access, their menus all funnel you in to the shop, whereas in the previous version of the game, you could actually earn all the different currencies to purchase the things you wanted (like characters and skins). In the original release, you could see your own rank per character (you could see you're the 284th best Jake!), this has been removed, and ranked mode is still missing after 2 years. You can also not view your stats or compete on leaderboards like you could originally. It feels like more features have been REMOVED rather than added since 2022.
Everything you grinded for in the first version of the game has been removed, all your characters are lvl 1 again, all your currencies reset, and many players are reporting that characters they bought have been taken away.
You would get a "character mastery" skin if you played your character enough, these have been revoked, and the only way to get them now is by paying for them in the shop.
It is incredible that they launched this game twice, to hundreds of thousands of players, only to fall flat on its face both times. Player First Games have shown their true colors, and I agree with the community when they say the studio should rename to Money First Games.

Avoid this game
Divertido, contudo loops, bugs e personagens que não são nerfados tiram a graça do game, apesar de tudo isso o modo campanha é bastante divertido.
o jogo me pegou bastante no lançamento da beta que foi em 2022, mas aconteceu tudo o que aconteceu e o jogo fechou por um tempo indeterminado. e depois disso tudo o jogo voltou recentemente, em 2024, prometendo melhorar as mecânicas anteriores e trazer mais novidades com todo esse tempo que ficou offline.
e com todo esse tempo que teve, conseguiram trazer coisas novas que foram: personagens novos, mecânicas novas e melhoradas [algumas] e reconstruíram os perks dos personagens). mas ainda assim, o jogo conseguiu ser enjoativo porquê não aparentemente não sabe prender os jogadores a longo prazo e acabam perdendo muito com isso, um exemplo é que você não ganhava XP por batalha, e agora você ganha míseros 10XP por partida, que é uma miséria. além de que na plataforma que eu jogo (Xbox Series S) o jogo tá mal otimizado, com a resolução baixa e travando do nada, e isso tira completamente a vontade de jogar.

IDK man, I think it's fun
A decent platform fighter with some truly awful progression that highly encourages players to spend money.
Like seriously, the players asked for a reward for playing matches other than just completing missions. So the devs added 10 battle pass xp per win. When it takes at least 1000 per level, which each level barely gives any rewards anyways. On top of that the shop is constantly advertising new sales and the only non preem currency item you can buy are the fighters. Which are kept at the bottom of the page to maximize the number of people who have to scroll past all the ads.
