Warner Bros isn’t done chucking familiar faces from film and TV on the list, though, revealing that Friday the 13th’s Jason Voorhees and The Matrix’s Agent Smith - no Neo, yet - will also be finding their way into the platform fighter when it returns on May 28th. Jason will be in from the word go, while Agent Smith will pop up sometime during MultiVersus’ first season of unlockables, which is titled Puns & Villainy.

Misgivings with the publisher aside, I do admire the commitment of developers Player First Games to take almost a full year to bring MultiVersus back, havingpulled it from sale and turned off the serversafter running an open beta from the summer of 2022 to last June. It was a contentious choice - not least because people had already paid real money to unlock stuff during its open beta - but hopefully the results will speak for themselves, having already impressed witha pretty slick offering in its pre-release form.
We’ve only got about a wait to week before we find out if the wait has finally been worth it, as MultiVersus arrives - with Jason and Agent Smith in tow - injust over a week on May 28th.
