Warner Bros. Games revealed that MultiVersus will receive a parry mechanic in a recent trailer. MultiVersus collaborated with the National Hockey League (NHL) to show off the new trailer. This news comes from the game’s official X/Twitter account.
The hype for MultiVersus is brewing as the game launches internationally next month. Many players tried the open beta test that lasted almost a year, getting to the point where it surpassed 20 million players worldwide. As of now, players can expect new changes to the game’s combat, with a new parry mechanic being introduced.
MultiVersus – New Parry Mechanic and Trailer
In a collaboration event with NHL, MultiVersus unveiled two teaser trailers that showcased the new parry mechanic. In both trailers, we get a glimpse of Batman and Superman using the parry during a fight. It appears that you can parry in the air and on the ground against attacks. After parrying an attack, you can freely attack back with a powerful attack or start a combo.
