Other features in development include post-match statistics, camera settings for 1v1 matches, and options such as a dedicated neutral dodge button setting. The development team also promises thatMultiVersus will have Ranked Mode, but this will take longer to happen, as they first want to “get their balancing right.”

According to them, progression will be re-evaluated, as will the pass’s XP distribution. ForMultiVersusSeason 2, players will have access to the rewards of all PvE Rifts without being forced to co-op, while co-op will give the rewards faster.
