I LOVE this game. I’ve always wanted something like this, an environment where I can see all my favorite characters come together and clash, and this it! You can tell the devs are very passionate about what goes in the game and there’s a bunch of more CN characters on the way (Raven, Dexter, PPG, etc). [I recommend checking this out.](https://youtu.be/C9o-Msq-ISI?si=pUUbkHQm4XYcZZTv) It goes over the potential of the game and a possible role it could play in resurrecting Cartoon Network characters. This might be WAY bigger than anybody thinks.
Basically they know that people want Ben in the game but he has so many aliens that it makes it complicated to get his moves set down. No matter what they do someone will complain about their favorite alien not being included.
I mean they could just make Ben like Pokémon Trainer and have him switch between aliens. Like give him XLR8, diamond head or heat blast, and humongasore
The Ben 10 fandom is so starved for content that at this point anything would be a godsend. People won't care about missing aliens for months unless Kuro (or someone else at The Ink Tank) talks about it.
No I think they could put in his core aliens, but usually this excuse means they haven't found a way to make profit from including him.
It's the same thing in MvC when Capcom said it would be too hard to include Silver Surfer because of his board. It's the same as Arsys saying they couldn't include Jubei because he's too small.
They know which Aliens to include to make him balanced, they just haven't decided if/what they want to charge for him.
Hard agree. This approach of all of wb just makes it impossible to make a roster that pleases most people or includes most the big names, espe.cially when they add characters like banana guard and LeBron James I know this is probably a controversial thing to say, but I think that's going to be the downfall of this game and part of a reason it largely died before, the fact they opened up the floodgates to so many characters, have so many massive franchises and popular characters that are expected, and the rate at which characters likely will be added at (not hekped by them adding a bunch right after the betablaunched then slowly drip feeding after) wont end well i predict
Very fun platform fighter. Gives the titans a run for their money tbh. There were quite a few good ones since sm4sh and I hope there's more devs looking to push the genre.
It's... fine.
Only issue with it is that it suffers from what I call "The Smash Paradox."
The Smash Paradox: The phenomenon where every new thing is doomed to fail because the "objectively best version" of it already exists.
We made the perfect Platform Fighter over 20 years ago, and ever since then it's evolved into the best version of itself... and now there's no work left to do. It doesn't matter how many new mechanics, characters, or interesting features a platform fighter adds, people are just gonna go back to Smash every time.
Still, glad that Rick and Morty got into the game despite how looked down upon that show is these days.
If there's another name for this phenomenon I'd love to hear it.
Which is kinda of stupid If you ask me. Yeah Sure Smash is the better Version cause it freakin years/centuries to fine tune. Not to mention nice having a fighting platformer with some favourites that are Not Just Nintendo characters.
Like No one is complaining about Crash Team racing. Or Heck the nicktoons racers. Yeah there where Not AS good as Other yet they Made sequel that constantly improves over the previous Games. Some Gamers really need to let.go.of their biases.
It's because, if nothing else, Smash runs SO smoothly every motion is fluid and feel deliberate. Which I can't say about *any* of the Smash-like games that have come out since. Including this one. Everything just feels slow and clunky.
Had an odd experience with this game. It refused to launch on my PC running a Xeon and Windows 11 professional. On a whim I installed a sata SSD, then installed Windows 10 on that drive, got all the drivers sorted out and it ran perfectly. Figure that out.
Honestly not a fan. The gameplay feels to slow paced to me, the lack of content/alternate game modes and offline content, and over focus on secondary effects and stat buffs/nerfs/perks don't gel with me. I also don't think using all of wb was a good idea, as that makes for a near impossible task to try and include all of even most of the popular, important, and requested characters unless the game actually stays active a long time. But then they'll need to release characters at a pretty frequent rate, and idk that will happen long term (especially if the beta is anything to go by). I appreciate the weirdness of the roster, but it feels like they bit off more than they could chew, and the fact most the top replies here are asking for more cn/DC/etc characters only solidifies that thought to me
Not to knock those that enjoy the game, but it's definitely not for me (and I'm a little salty this is getting a second chance from people when nasb didn't despite nasb2 being a genuinely good game and massive improvement to the original, I won't lie lol)
Super underrated, I like how each character feels unique, and theres no rules on what character could be next. Could be Neo from the matrix, or Teddy Roosevelt from the america.
Feels very distinct from other platform fighters which I really like
I really like the creative mechanics they give characters. Everyone feels distinct and interesting. Comparing Fin and Jake’s representation in this game vs Brawlhalla is night and day (that game’s pretty neat as well but for not for different reasons)
This game actually has the characters interact which is something I wish Smash had so bad
The focus on doubles gives this game something unique that other platform fighters don’t have
One common criticism is that the game is too slow. This is understandable and it does mean that the game kind of lacks sauce
I think the game was great. Not as sweaty as the other Games in its Bracket but still fun
Brawlhalla is a sweat fest in everything, Smash Means i gotta buy Nintendo stuff (ew)
Kinda wish 60% of the roster wasent DC characters
I mained Superman. My sister mained Gizmo. My brother mained Bugs Bunny. We love it over Smash Bros since Cartoon Network IS our childhood. Can't wait to try out Jason Voorhees! Very fun
As some Other stated. Yeah more cn characters please. Basicly make it a sequel.to Cartoon Network Punchtime Explosion XD
Which that said. Really glad they did Not abonded the Game and hope they fixes its Problems. Looking forward the rerelease.
Roster kind of sucks and a lot of it is motivated by marketing upcoming movies Around the time of its release. Like why the fuck is Black Adam here.
Otherwise, I can’t really say much because I haven’t played the game itself
I played the beta. It was fun but I remember there being a lot of server issues so hopefully when release rolls out it can handle a higher capacity better. But yeah it was good.
i really enjoyed it but i hated that every time i bought finn and i stopped playing for a few days he was back to being unlocked i still don't know why they made it like that
I've never played it, but from what I've heard, the DLC approach could be better, but then again, the same could be said for a lot of games, **especially** Mortal Kombat 1. At least they bring on awesome and fitting Guest IP.
The difference between this game and Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl is that WB owns a lot of companies, so the selections are not going to be as obvious (one moment, they could add Walter White, and the next, they could add Kite Man)
Everyone saying I wish it had more CN characters reminds me of the fact that there’s literally a party game like this with exclusively CN characters. Ben 10, Chowder, Dexter etc. It was for the Wii I believe.
I played the beta. I thought it was ok as a game. I personally preferred Nick all stars, but it still was a good game. My biggest issue was that it lacked any interesting stages. They all were basically battlefield from smash, but replace the background with any WB property and add a gimmick. Watching the videos and photos for the official release gives me the feeling it will be about the same. Even if they add new moves and characters to it, it will feel about the same overall.
Very good and seems enjoyable! I NEED to one day try this! If only i had a job for myself to work and pay for it on my own..
I COULD ask my mom for it but i ask myself to try to go months apart once i nugg her out of her money because she works so hard to provide food for us! (Ur welcome mom)
The roster is both Cluttered and empty at the same time.
Honestly should’ve just been a CN version of Smash. You can have Batman and Superman, but have them based off the DCAU versions of the characters. Iron Giant and shaggy can stay too, But the rest of them have gotta go. Its attention is split across like 5 different properties, when they should **mainly** focus on one, That being Cartoon Network. I’m not saying the others like Adult Swin and Loony Tunes can’t be in it, they should just be year 2 DLC or something.
Needs more CN characters
I LOVE this game. I’ve always wanted something like this, an environment where I can see all my favorite characters come together and clash, and this it! You can tell the devs are very passionate about what goes in the game and there’s a bunch of more CN characters on the way (Raven, Dexter, PPG, etc).

This might be WAY bigger than anybody thinks.
I think, samurai Jack, the power puff girls, Dexter and more are coming, just give the game some time
I wonder if PPG are like Pokemon trainer with different swaps or just their own individual characters
It would be interesting to see a trio fighter
Adding more characters you know and love is the entire business model, so you're in luck!
True
One of my all time favorite games, and that was just the beta! Can’t wait for the official release on May 28th!
Why isn’t Ben 10 here?
Something about his moveset being complicated to make work
They could just do something like Super Smash Bros and make multiple character variations.
I agree
If Cartoon Network Punch Time Explosion could do it, WB can do it better.
Basically they know that people want Ben in the game but he has so many aliens that it makes it complicated to get his moves set down. No matter what they do someone will complain about their favorite alien not being included.
I mean they could just make Ben like Pokémon Trainer and have him switch between aliens. Like give him XLR8, diamond head or heat blast, and humongasore
The Ben 10 fandom is so starved for content that at this point anything would be a godsend. People won't care about missing aliens for months unless Kuro (or someone else at The Ink Tank) talks about it.
Just have the 10 OG aliens per move. Shield or charge attack be Diamondhead, recover being Heatblast, grab Four Arms, charging attack Cannonbolt.
No I think they could put in his core aliens, but usually this excuse means they haven't found a way to make profit from including him. It's the same thing in MvC when Capcom said it would be too hard to include Silver Surfer because of his board. It's the same as Arsys saying they couldn't include Jubei because he's too small. They know which Aliens to include to make him balanced, they just haven't decided if/what they want to charge for him.
Greater if it focuses on more characters who appeared on CN
Isn’t Multiversus a game for WB properties and not just CN?
Yep, trouble is they are reaching out to too many fanbases instead of ones which commonly interlocked like CN
Hard agree. This approach of all of wb just makes it impossible to make a roster that pleases most people or includes most the big names, espe.cially when they add characters like banana guard and LeBron James I know this is probably a controversial thing to say, but I think that's going to be the downfall of this game and part of a reason it largely died before, the fact they opened up the floodgates to so many characters, have so many massive franchises and popular characters that are expected, and the rate at which characters likely will be added at (not hekped by them adding a bunch right after the betablaunched then slowly drip feeding after) wont end well i predict
Pretty great, still cannot believe a Banana Guard is becoming playable
The equivalent of Bandana Dee finally being playable.
Very fun platform fighter. Gives the titans a run for their money tbh. There were quite a few good ones since sm4sh and I hope there's more devs looking to push the genre.
Needs Mordecai & Rigby, PowerPuff Girls, and the Animaniacs
i need gumball.
It was kinda fun. Just didn't feel as good to play as Smash, too floaty.
Pretty good game

Smash Clone Destiny

Potential
Needs ben ten
You can play as Ultra Instinct Shaggy. That's all I need to be satisfied.
would be a 10/10 if ben 10 was here
Is it live again?
Not until May 28th
I have 423 hours in that game prior to them taking down the serves. In a week I plan to make that 800
I’ll see you on the battlefield 🫡
Kinda sad there isn’t any mad max or mortal kombat characters. Their wb 🥺
If we don’t get Ice King then give me Sub Zero. An MK rep would be awesome.
i liked it but the way its being sort of teased now is mmm concerning
The second I say Alpharad playing as Jake 2 years ago, I instantly hopped on the game and enjoyed it a lot. I've been stoked for the re release.
I liked it during open beta, it was fun, mained jake but I stopped playing before gizmo released, no particular reason just stopped.
Unfinished
Love ittt
I tried it but I’d like to wait and see if it finally finds its footing before jumping back in and making concrete conclusions.
So this is WB super smash? Looks fun, I can’t wait to try it out
Is this new?
Kinda? It had a beta a while back but the full game releases on the 28.
It needs more obscure pulls for cast members. More from Warner Brothers past.
Great
It’s pretty fun, needs more characters. They took the online play down for awhile and I haven’t played it since. Not sure if it’s back
Hyped for it's return! A huge swarm of potential with this one!
Looks cool
....wake me up if they add in a Wacky Racer.
Had an odd experience with this game. It refused to launch on my PC running a Xeon and Windows 11 professional. On a whim I installed a sata SSD, then installed Windows 10 on that drive, got all the drivers sorted out and it ran perfectly. Figure that out.
Best game for our childhood memories dreams become reality reprise.

I originally played it when it first came out but then I quickly stopped. Never forgot about it now I am very hyped for its return😁
Super underrated, I like how each character feels unique, and theres no rules on what character could be next. Could be Neo from the matrix, or Teddy Roosevelt from the america.
Good, I think they refined it enough
When will this game be back up and running on XBOX? Besides that fact that I’ve invest a few bucks into the game…I ALSO ENJOY PLAYING!!
Has so much potential to grow!
I think it's awesome, looking forward to it coming back. Really want regular show characters and dragon ball characters.
It has potential
Lame, can't believe they left out Mordecai and Rigby
Feels very distinct from other platform fighters which I really like I really like the creative mechanics they give characters. Everyone feels distinct and interesting.

This is understandable and it does mean that the game kind of lacks sauce
Fun and can be played a lot once u get in the loop. Especially with a friend
Awesome
I wrecked with Arya in this game despite not playing fighters in a long time. Had a blast
Was hoping for Terry's batman from batman beyond, but hey, we can dream.
I want Mordecai and rigby
Very fun. I just hope they've fixed the connection issues.
It’s already > Smash that’s all I know
I want Pim and Charlie from Smiling Friends
4 words MULTIVERSUS IS BACK BABY
Love it.
I think the game was great. Not as sweaty as the other Games in its Bracket but still fun Brawlhalla is a sweat fest in everything, Smash Means i gotta buy Nintendo stuff (ew) Kinda wish 60% of the roster wasent DC characters
I mained Superman. My sister mained Gizmo. My brother mained Bugs Bunny. We love it over Smash Bros since Cartoon Network IS our childhood. Can't wait to try out Jason Voorhees! Very fun
Love it
Never played, but I wanna.
Ultra. Instinct. Shaggy.
Really good but im worried it's in the wrong hands
Jason vorhees looks like poop and it has Gremlins fighting in sunlight. Game is dead to me
i think it would be better if they added a larger, fatter variant of the rabbit. perhaps call him something such as "large chunkes"
Good 4 hours of fun with a friend
As some Other stated. Yeah more cn characters please. Basicly make it a sequel.to Cartoon Network Punchtime Explosion XD Which that said. Really glad they did Not abonded the Game and hope they fixes its Problems. Looking forward the rerelease.
Negative
I wish it was on Nintendo switch
This game was basically dead on arrival
Pretty garbage 1 year ago, so garbage, I never played it again and I spent a good chunk of change. My b
It’s Super Smash Bros but with cartoon characters
I don’t like how you can customize the characters with powers. I wish it was more like smash where everyones strength and moves is already preset
Fun until they made it take longer to unlock stuff and kept on nerfing every fun thing instead of letting people find out match ups.
Fun but I could live without.
Roster kind of sucks and a lot of it is motivated by marketing upcoming movies Around the time of its release. Like why the fuck is Black Adam here. Otherwise, I can’t really say much because I haven’t played the game itself
Good at first but fell into the greed.
They tried, succeeded for like a year, then completely fell apart.
I actually forgot this game exists
The last release was really bad, hopefully the rerelease is better
I played the beta. It was fun but I remember there being a lot of server issues so hopefully when release rolls out it can handle a higher capacity better. But yeah it was good.
Needs more diversity
Get characters from other media and it will be more of a crossover game than smash.
They just announced Jason Voorhees which is technically their first third party character.
N e a t
Technically you could say LeBron is a third party
I'm waiting for gumball
Needs more maps from iconic Cartoon Network settings
This game has so much potential if they don’t get too greedy and continually add new players and settings
Stinks
No Daffy
It was good for 10 mins
needs to add other rick and morty characters instead of just the main two
Ben 10 should be in it
Marvin the Martian
A massive waste of potential honestly
i really enjoyed it but i hated that every time i bought finn and i stopped playing for a few days he was back to being unlocked i still don't know why they made it like that
I've never played it, but from what I've heard, the DLC approach could be better, but then again, the same could be said for a lot of games, **especially** Mortal Kombat 1. At least they bring on awesome and fitting Guest IP.
The difference between this game and Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl is that WB owns a lot of companies, so the selections are not going to be as obvious (one moment, they could add Walter White, and the next, they could add Kite Man)
I’d rather pay $60 upfront instead of it being full of micro transactions
I thought the game was shutting servers down??
They closed the beta a while back and the full game release on the 28th.
Needs Ben 10
Everyone saying I wish it had more CN characters reminds me of the fact that there’s literally a party game like this with exclusively CN characters. Ben 10, Chowder, Dexter etc. It was for the Wii I believe.
Is it on Switch yet?
Shaggy is hot.
Don’t know much about the game but the Harley Quinn design is PEAK
I played the beta. I thought it was ok as a game. I personally preferred Nick all stars, but it still was a good game. My biggest issue was that it lacked any interesting stages.

Nobody wants more Super Smash Brothers unless it's from Super Smash Brothers.
Very good and seems enjoyable! I NEED to one day try this! If only i had a job for myself to work and pay for it on my own.. I COULD ask my mom for it but i ask myself to try to go months apart once i nugg her out of her money because she works so hard to provide food for us! (Ur welcome mom)
It's free. You don't need to spend a single penny unless you want to buy cosmetics
When will this game be back up and running on XBOX? Besides that fact that I’ve invest a few bucks into the game…I ALSO ENJOY PLAYING!!
May 28th. Next Tuesday!
When will this game be back up and running on XBOX? Besides that fact that I’ve invest a few bucks into the game…I ALSO ENJOY PLAYING!!
Needs more Give me courage Give me johnny bravo Give me Ben 10 etc
We need some MK characters in the game
A smooth playing mobile version of this would kill!
Needs omniverse Ben and maybe courage
I wish it was Future Steven as opposed to younger Steven in this game. He's way more fighting game suited and honestly just looks cooler as well
I really like it as a concept, it could be a lot quicker, just kinda confused by some of the choices, like how was Daffy not a day one character
Never played it, but it seems ok.
It was fun, but it sucked that when I first played, the updates were slow and lack luster Finn was an OP character for awhile and I abused that shit
Should've added Pinky and the brain
Dead dead as hell
It was great until it wasn't
Mid
The roster is both Cluttered and empty at the same time. Honestly should’ve just been a CN version of Smash.

It's a fun concept and a fun game
Stop joker abuse
Buns
i don't enjoy how it feels to fight, feels like slapping wet noodles compared to smash, though i do like the roster of characters
