Released in July 2022, MultiVersus is an ambitious platform fighter that pulls characters from popular IPs, spanning from Looney Toons to Game of Thrones.

Since the fighting game’s inception, fans were ready to test their skill in a competitive ranked ladder game mode. The season one announcement marked the first mention of an official ranked game mode, though fans still had to wait some time before seeing its debut.

Starting Nov. 8, players will have access to MultiVersus ranked.

Players1st Games mentioned the ranked ladder is still in its alpha phases, and that this first iteration of the game mode will only last a week. After its testing concludes and issues are addressed, MultiVersus will inform players when they can expect a full release.

Despite its lack of a ranked mode, MultiVersus has still hosted a thriving, competitive esports scene. Already making its Evo debut and hosting weekly tournaments spearheaded by emerging community leaders, MultiVersus has already managed to create a space for its top players.

With a formalized ranked mode and competitive ladder forming, it should be much easier for players to gauge their skill and mastery over the platform fighter.

While MultiVersus players may still have to wait a little longer for the game mode to be permanently added, Warner Bros. Games have assured it is on its way.
