MVS has been nominated for best fighting game at the game awards a second time
Gonna be honest, I don’t see Multiversus winning again.

The first time around, the only real competition from what I remember was King of Fighters and the Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure game.
This time, the competition is as follows:
DBZ Sparkling Zero
GranBlue Fantasy Versus Rising
The Marvel vs Capcom Collection
Tekken 8

Tekken 8 sold well but treated its fanbase terribly, and consistently throughout this year. I don’t see it getting voted in.

Marvel VS Capcom collection is nice, I have it. I think the lack of anything truly new here means it won’t win. It is a great game for MvC fans, not sure about all gamers.

It’s a toss up between Sparking Zero and Granblue, imo. If Multiversus wins a second consecutive award I will literally spend $100 $10 on Gleamium as punishment. :nifty:

See this is a factor but I don't think the journalists who vote on this kinda thing really care about that kinda thing, but sparking could win with the fan vote

I'm pretty sure Tekken 8 got this, of all in the list it's one of the big fighting games and even if the fans are unhappy, i think it has more chances to win.

Dragon ball tho is no slouch

I admit I don’t understand the context besides someone saying they voiced a character for an unknown game (which doesn’t mean Multiversus).

Also we have Announcer Packs for non playable characters, so even if Lapis were in, it doesn’t mean she is playable.
I hope Lapis Lazuli is actually playable, she actually had moveset potential where could not only be a announcer pack and Adventure Time already got two more reps so now it's turn for Steven Universe

I mean, in the past we used Candi Milo saying she voiced for two games that haven't been revealed yet. The difference being that she specifically said it was Dexter, that's why it's likely one of those games is Dexter for MVS.

However, interesting nonetheless. I wouldn't mind Lapis, but weird we aren't getting the rest of the OG crystal gems

Lapis Lazuli it's probably coming to MultiVersus https://x.com/LapisforMVS/status/1858610138006884818
Please Let it be Multiversus as a fighter, PLEASE! let it be Multiversus as a fighter!

Edit at 11/18/24 at 4:42 PM: I just voted for Multiversus on the game awards website, i am aware of dragon ball and granblue? being the most likely winners but i picked the one i have more time on, only played this year, and what i like more too.

What the second game is, that's what I'm really curious about.

I've seen some people saying that Wicked might hit $1 billion at the box office. Even if it isn't that big, it seems poised to be a hit. I wonder if it was a mistake not having the Wicked Witch release around the same time (I know it's a Universal release, but it's still the same series)

I predict season 6 at the earliest for this.

Apparently Aisul also said that Fionna was being worked at some point, the name is listed under "banned assets"

Some misc things with this update:
1. Eric Bauza is the voice of Foghorn Leghorn’s announcer pack.
2. Anyone who got the Batman 85 version of Shaggy before the Nubia update should now have two versions of the outfit. One yellow, and one black. Both are also now being sold separately.
3. For some reason, the rift difficulties are no longer locked based on what rift it is.

The end result of "list of data to not bring to the client end" not including the list itself lmao.

Should i point out that raven no longer has her lines mentioning Daenerys? It's notable cause other character have kept the future proofed voicelines from even the beta, like Batman still has lines for Poison Ivy

They didn't hide the list well enough :v

The insane part is that it still doesn’t tell us anything.
Is this a scrapped characters list? Are all these characters happening? Where’s Aquaman, Dexter, Daffy and Scooby? Are Fionna and Pickle Rick separate characters now? What’s that name above Wicked Witch?
If nothing else, they’re getting better at hiding this stuff juuuuuust enough to keep speculation going.

I guess I'll address the green elephant in the room since no one else is.

Why are there still references for Hulk if that was tied to before MultiVersus was based around WB?
And I thought that got removed at some point in later beta datamines?
I wouldn't think too far into it. Removing files, no matter how small, can end up having unforeseen circumstances in the future. It's entirely possible they could have also just forgot to remove it; it's a singular file after all.

If someone removes the load bearing Hulk, Steven Universe dies.

It’s so funny that you censored the Hulk’s name but still addressed him as the green elephant anyway

I know about the rest but is there even any data indicating that Dexter will become playable?

He's not the only green character

For all you know it could've been Kermit under that spoiler.

See that’s the weird thing, all we got is a character tag they used in a mission by accident a few seasons ago, and Candi Milo saying she did voice work for a few video games as Dexter.

Otherwise all we have are the mounds of teases. Like I think Dexter might be the most teased character in the game’s marketing so him being absent in the files is weird.

At this point I genuinely think that the Dexter "tease" were not actually teases, but just fun easter egg because of the stage and boss that was coming. I'm not saying he's not coming at all, but I don't think it's going to be in the near future.
