MultiVersus DLC schedule, including Rick release time and all future fighters, from Black Adam and Stripe

What are the new contenders coming to MultiVersus?

MultiVersus DLC sees more characters coming to the Warner Bros-themed fighter.

Fighters from Looney Tunes, Scooby-Doo, DC and Adventure Time have featured so far, and there's much more where they came from.

As the months roll on, MultiVersus is set to get more fighters via DLC, each with a specific play style and moveset.

So far, only a few have been officially confirmed, but there are also various leaks pointing to possible new fighters.

The MultiVersus beta will be shutting down on Sunday 25th June 2023 until the game is ready for its full launch. If you'd like to learn more, visit our MultiVersus beta closing page.

MultiVersus Rick release time: When is Rick coming to MultiVersus?

Rick, of Rick and Morty fame, is the next DLC character coming in MultiVersus Season 1, releasing on Tuesday, 27th September.

Rick will release in MultiVersus at the following times:

  • UK: 6pm (BST)
  • Europe: 7pm (CEST)
  • East Coast US: 1pm (EDT)
  • West Coast US: 10am (PDT)

Rick will be a Mage, and is described as a "nihilistic mega-genius and one of the galaxy’s most wanted", for those who haven't seen the show. The special moves are still to be confirmed at the time of writing - so what impact he'll have on our MultiVersus tier list remains to be seen.

All confirmed MultiVersus DLC fighters, including Black Adam and Stripe

At present, we only know of a handful of DLC characters that have been officially confirmed to be coming to MultiVersus. You'll find them in the list below, alongside their expected release dates.

  • Gizmo (Gremlins) - Season 1, Thursday, September 8th, 2022
  • Rick (Rick and Morty) - Season 1, Tuesday, September 27th, 2022
  • Black Adam (DC) - Season 1, TBC
  • Stripe (Gremlins) - Season 1, TBC

As you can see, most of the upcoming fighters do not have specific release dates. Season 1 has yet to be given an end date, but with most seasons in live service games lasting up until three months, this could give us some indication for how long we will be waiting.


MultiVersus Season 1 is here, alongside the latest patch notes and a look at the DLC schedule. Want to get the most out of the game? We have a MultiVersus tier list and how to unlock MultiVersus characters, plus the voice actors list.


MultiVersus leaked DLC fighters we know so far

Let's start with the most recent MultiVersus leak. A dataminer spotted what looks like green code in the game's files. You can see it in the Tweet below:

This is very clearly The Matrix, so we might be seeing characters like Neo and Trinity in the future. Player First Games has yet to comment on this leak.

Before The Matrix content was found, the same dataminer uncovered voice lines pointing to The Wicked Witch Of the West and Beetlejuice.

The most interesting part of this was that the Tweets were taken down via a copyright claim, adding yet more weight to the leak.

Other leaks have also occured, pointing to characters like The Joker and Gandalf, though these are a lot harder to confirm. For now, these are the DLC fighters rumoured to come to MultiVersus in the future.

Those are the MultiVersus DLC fighters we know about so far. For who is in the game right now, see our characters page, and check out our MultiVersus tier list for who to best play as.
