MultiVersus returned from its huge time off with a big new update, leaving beta and fully releasing as a game. That doesn’t mean it’s over though. This is just the start of MultiVersus patch notes and updates. With the game now fully released, we can expect these to start rolling in regularly.
If you want to stay on top of all of the changes and developments in the game, MultiVersus patch notes are a key source to look at. How characters are altered will affect how you play them pretty heavily. Off the back of the game’s new season, there are already a few characters that could really use a re-balance. Not to mention bugs like the Power Within MultiVersus badge. These are the changes so far in the MultiVersus patch notes that we’ve seen:

Ranked mode is available once you reach Account Level 5. There’s a 2v2 or 1v1 mode. Each character has their own Rank and you can earn rewards as you progress.
Balancing Changes
Those are most of the new additions, but there have been some broad MultiVersus Season 2 Patch Notes for balancing. These are changed which could re-order MultiVersus tier lists for this season.

A handful of smaller changes have been made to the battle Pass and the items. You can now purchase Battle Pass tiers directly with Gleamium! If you want to skip ahead, it’s nice to have this option. There’s also now a daily free item in the store for you to collect.
New Rifts
New rift encounters have been added to the game! These aren’t activated yet though, we’ll have to wait until later in the month to actually play them. These are Age of Smith and Triple Threat, likely two themed for the newest character.
New Maps

Another big addition in these MultiVersus updates are the new maps! There’s fresh variants here like the Court 2 and Cromulons. It’s always great to see more variety in backdrops. These are the new maps and map variants we’ve seen come to the game:
Comulons
The Court 2
Dexter’s Laboratory 1
Throne Room
Townsville
Tree Fort
MultiVersus Hotfix
Another new MultiVersus patch is here! Although, this time it’s more of a hotfix than a dedicated patch. These are smaller little fixes that just try to sort out a specific problem in game, not a full rebalance of how everything works.
The MultiVersus patch notes for the hot fix include a few changes for characters. The big change is improvements to connectivity. Players on console will be able to connect for online matches with fewer problems.
There are other changes to characters in here too though. Banana Guard has had bug fixes, Harley Quinn and Rick have both had their emote bugs sorted. Iron Giant has had more actual changes, with his Ground Side Special getting nerfed quite a bit. Shaggy has also had his air neutral changed, and Reindog’s side attack.
It’s our third weekly patch in a row here. This is a smaller one, but these little changes and fixes to characters should help correct some of the problems with the game right now.
Patch 1.02 MultiVersus Update
Another new MultiVersus patch is here! Player First Games has been delivering these updates really frequently since the game returned. What exactly has been changed inside the title though?
The big change with the MultiVersus new update is performance improvements rather than balancing changes. However, there have also been some alterations to how fighters perform. These are the biggest changes:
General Changes
15-frame repeat move lockout on ground side attack combo added to all characters. This prevents chaining multiple moves and hitstun.
Camera distance changed in 1v1
Profile Icons, Badges, Ringouts, and Announcer Packs are all now in the Account Cosmetics of the Fighters tab.
Bug Fixes – Problems with desyncs, performance on Xbox, and parries have been fixed
Perks
A few alterations have been made to the in-game perks, specifically the Air Walker perk. This has had bug fixes and is limited to being used once per airtime.
Character Changes
Alongside those general changes, there are some more slight moves to the character’s individual balance. These are the changes in the MultiVersus patch notes.

MultiVersus Full Release Patch Notes
MultiVersus returned in late May, did we get full patch notes for this change? The developers decided not to release full patch notes for the game when it came back.
There are differing opinions on this, but from some perspectives, it does make sense. MultiVersus received major changes when coming back. It left early access and was fully released. Most games don’t get patch notes for their initial release, just updates from there.
On the other hand, some characters are still pretty similar like Batman in MultiVersus. The overall pace of games has gotten slower though, which will likely effect how everyone plays even with the similarities. The lack of patch notes for the game coming back is just something players will have to deal with. However, we’ll likely continue to get full MultiVersus patch notes for these future updates.
