MultiVersus patch adds Big Head Mode now, Marvin the Martian later

MultiVersus’ second season adds “Big Head Mode” to the Silly Queue, which the Super Smash Bros.-like fighter introduced just two weeks ago. It opens the way, appropriately enough, for Looney Tunes’ bug-eyed extraterrestrial — Marvin the Martian — to join the roster of playable fighters in the near future. Warner Bros. Games announced Tuesday’s addition along with Player First.

The season 2 highlight videos include the following: Game of Thrones stage, which will feature the Iron Throne, a remix of the series’ overture, and “Westeros-based hazards,” according to a news release. Who knows what that really entails, but we’re hoping for Septa Unella and her bell of shame.

As for Marvin, a statement on Tuesday indicated he’ll be packing his Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator, the device he intended to use to destroy the Earth (because “it obstructs my view of Venus”) beginning in 1948’s Haredevil Hare. Marvin will summon a satellite to harass his adversaries.

Elsewhere, season 2’s patch does the following:

• This tutorial is simplified by adding voice-over narration, and some steps are removed.
• Adds scoring to the Space Jam It is currently only available for custom matches and the laboratory. It means: MultiVersus will keep track of baskets made on the stage’s goal. “Try for some difficult 3 pointers!,” Player First said.
• Additional Bounce Pads, Proximity Mines, and a Drumstick can be added to make opponents into chickens if they are thrown at them.

Season 2’s battle pass is already available, including variants of Tom & Jerry and Reindog. Those who pay to unlock the premium-level battle pass can also get “Astronaut Velma” (from Scooby Doo) and “Maestro Bugs,” an homage to Bugs’ many command performances of operas like “The Barber of Seville,” and “Kill Da Wabbit.”
