Let’s now have a look at the patches and the major changes for the Multiversus 1.02 update. All the below details are taken from the official website of the game.
MULTIVERSUS GIZMO PATCH NOTES:
Gizmo will be arriving on 09/08! He has his popcorn and is ready to pop off!
Spectator Mode now displays Team Colors properly
MULTIVERSUS UPDATE 1.02 HITBOX/HURTBOX CHANGES and patch notes:
This patch includes our hitbox/hurtbox system overhaul. Our goal with this update is to more tightly tie hitboxes and hurtboxes to our character animations. We will be keeping an eye on how this update affects the player experience and we are ready to implement additional patches if any problems arise. This will be a process for us to get there, but this is our first step towards truly accurate hitbox/hurtbox detection and gives us a foundation to permanently fixing issues going forward.
Changes:
Hurtboxes updated on every character.
Hitboxes updated on most attacks. Specific adjustments may not be listed in the character notes.
These are images showing the before and after of our hurtbox update.
You’ll notice that the hurtboxes are closely tied with the animations now after the update.
Multiversus Update 1.02 Changes And Patch Notes
MULTIVERSUS UPDATE 1.02 PATCH NOTES PROJECTILE SYSTEMS UPDATE
This patch also includes the first part of our projectile systems update. MultiVersus is a game that thrives on interesting interactions between fighters, between allies, and between projectiles, but a player shouldn’t need an encyclopedic knowledge of every attack in the game to feel comfortable understanding those interactions. Our goal with this update is to standardize global projectile behaviors so players can better adapt strategies around projectiles. This update is just the first part of our projectile systems changes, so expect more updates in a future patch.
Changes:
Standardized opposing projectiles to always clank, destroying both projectiles
Introduced the Heavy Projectile – Heavy Projectiles break enemy projectiles, can only clank with other Heavy Projectiles, and cannot be reflected
Barriers and buffs that “Block Projectiles” more consistently block all projectiles.
Projectiles that explode no longer hit fighters that blocked the projectile.
Directional Action Key Mappings for Keyboard
Directional Attacks and Specials can now be mapped to specific keyboard keys. For example, Down Attack can be mapped to a key so that you can perform Down Attacks without also Fast Falling.
In total, there are 8 new keyboard binds: Up Attack, Right Attack, Down Attack, Left Attack, Up Special, Right Special, Down Special, Left Special.
MULTIVERSUS UPDATE 1.02 PATCH NOTES MISCELLANEOUS GAMEPLAY UPDATES:
Adjusted character mesh vertical offsets so that characters’ feet don’t clip into the floor as much. This change also involved adjusting the floor collision for the following maps: Scooby’s Haunted Mansion, Cromulons, Cromulons (1 vs 1), Tree Fort (1 vs 1), and all versions of Sky Arena.
Multiversus Update 1.02 Changes And Updates Continued
Wall, floor, and ceiling bounces no longer restore Dodge Meter energy.
Improved input handling when an Attack/Special is executed at the same time as a jump. In the past, it was possible for jumps to interrupt Attacks and Specials, thus leading to “ignored” actions. This change will improve the responsiveness of short hop Attacks and Specials.

- Clear The Air: Updated description text to explain that perk effect only applies to non-Heavy Projectiles
- Ice To Beat You!: Projectiles will only apply Ice debuff to fighters that are not already debuffed by Ice

ARYA
- + Assassin Passive: Removed 5% additional damage taken debuff
- – Air/Ground Up Special: Reverted to Early Access version of up special
- We were finding that skill and counterplay was being removed from Arya with the addition of the vacuuming effect making follow ups nearly always true.

BATMAN
We’re watching Batman closely. The Projectile Systems update will make it so all projectiles will properly destroy the batarang so we want to see how this plays out for a bit before further adjustments. The goal is to make Batman Batarang have understandable counterplay.

- ~ Air Side Attack: When landing the attack will allow carrying movement momentum earlier
