A long time ago, there was a petition to add the Ultra Instinct Shaggy meme toMortal Kombat 11. No one really expected it to happen, but then again, many seriously wanted it to. That’s where the first idea ofMultiVersuswas conceived, a competitor toSuper Smash Bros.that included crossover fights from Warner Bros. Discovery' various properties. FewSuper Smash Bros.competitors or even clones hardly ever go the distance, butMultiVersus' open betais proof it just might.
A huge community has flocked to the game, and many are discussing its merits, needed changes, characters, and more. One element that makesSuper Smash Bros. so successful is its constant crossovers, which often require huge big, behind-the-scenes deals between multiple companies.MultiVersusreally needs this to take it to the next level, and just like Sora and manySmashcharacters before him,MultiVersusfans already have an ideal DLC character in mind.

Many want to see characters likeRegular Show’s Mordecai and Rigby inMultiVersus, but perhaps the most demanded character in the community isBreaking Bad’s Walter White. Of course, that is a markedly different character from its current roster altogether, but on the other hand, that’s the point. And now fans think game director Tony Huynh is teasing his possible addition.
There is a Twitter account dedicated to promoting the addition of Walter White toMultiVersus, and it commonly uses the nose-bandaged, green shirt Walter White (from his iconic “I won” moment in Season 4’s finale) as a character mock-up for him. This account recently tweeted a mock-up of whatEVO 2023could look like forMultiVersus, of course with Walter White worked into it. The kicker here is that Tony Huynh recently retweeted this post, and the officialMultiVersusTwitter account also follows it.
Of course, whether this is a simple community engagement act or an actual tease remains to be seen. Many fans hope it is the latter, and it’s worth noting howBreaking Badgames have been discussed before by Vince Gilligan. This isn’t theGTA-style game he dreamed of, but having a little Walter White representation here definitely wouldn’t hurt its brand, which is one of the main concerns of a game set in the franchise. As a guest fighter, Walter’s inclusion would likely check off a lot of boxes on all sides, but who knows, it could simply be a pipe dream.
MultiVersusis now available in open beta for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
