Smash Ultimate is about to get another serious rival in the fighting game space, as Warner Bros prepares for the release of Multiversus – and now, gameplay screenshots have been leaked.
The upcoming title has become one of gaming’s worst-kept secrets in 2021, after the title, DLC plans, and fighter roster was leaked early. So early, in fact, that the developers haven’t yet got around to confirming its existence.
In the absence of official information, Smash Ultimate and Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl players have been left to continue scavenging around for rumors and leaks.
On October 29, another massive revelation was made as gameplay screenshots were unearthed.
Multiversus gameplay leak: New screenshots
A number of shots have been doing the rounds on Twitter, Reddit, and other social platforms – deleted and reposted in some instances. This has made finding the original source difficult to distinguish.
However, in a series of gameplay images and sketches obtained by Dexerto, a number of features were spotted.
Smash-style stages
Three different Smash Bros-style stages were unveiled, called Tree Fort, Lion Watch, and another was left nameless.
Knockback
Included in the screenshots was confirmation of a feature that allows for percentage-based knockback, not to mention a few different controls were also listed.
It said: “The number attached to each fighter indicates how much knockback effect they will receive when hit.
“The higher the number, the farther they fly away!”
