MultiVersushas rolled out its latest update, which adds a classicLooney Tunescharacter to the popular fighting game’s roster. The universe-blending platform fighter features characters from across Warner Bros.' vast array of different IPs, withMultiVersus' newest addition being none other than Marvin the Martian.
The classic Bugs Bunny antagonist comes roughly a week afterMultiVersuswent down temporarily for its Season 2 launch, which officially began on November 15. The popular free-to-play fighting game was down for a surprisingly short amount of time - 9:00 to 10:00 AM PST on November 16 - with Marvin the Martian only becoming available as of today. The update capped off an eventful final month ofMultiVersus' first season, which added everyone from The Iron Giant to theSpace Jamversion of LeBron James to the eponymous Rick Sanchez and Morty Smith ofRick and Morty.

The arrival ofLooney Tunes' Marvin the Martian was announced via the officialMultiVersusTwitter account. Marvin the Martian is revealed to be an Assassin class, joiningthe ranks ofGremlins' Stripe,Game of Thrones' Arya Stark, Finn fromAdventure Timeand DC’s Harley Quinn. The tweet shows the new character on a card, which includes several of his moves. These include the B-23 Bubble Blaster, which fires a bursting bubble projectile, the K-62 Projectile Modulator, which reverses the direction of allied projectiles, and “…in the name of Mars!” planting his famous Mars-claiming flag into the ground, sending enemies skyward.
Early online impressions fromMultiVersusplayers appear to be positive, with Marvin the Martian adding another zany yet powerful moveset to the game. TheLooneyTunescharacter isn’t the only thing added as part ofMultiVersus’Season 2 update, however. In addition to moreLooney Tunescontent, the new season has also added a new level: The Iron Throne room fromGame of Thrones. While Arya Stark remains the sole representative from the popular franchise, the addition of the stage along with the current airing ofHouse of the Dragoncould possibly indicate that more Westeros characters are in store.
Even though Marvin the Martian was just released today,MultiVersusfans have already managed to find another character potentially jumping into the fray. Dataminers recently found evidence thatJack fromSamurai Jackcould be added to the roster, with a string of code mentioning “Aku’s Mountain”. The main antagonist of the beloved animated series, the find almost certainly indicates the magic sword-wielding samurai will find his way into the game, where he’ll face Marvin the Martian and whatever other characters end up appearing in the new season.
MultiVersusis available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
