How to Get New Characters in MultiVersus

In MultiVersus, characters can be unlocked using two main currencies: Gleamium and Fighter Credits. Gleamium is the premium currency, primarily purchased with real-world money. For example, 1,000 Gleamium costs about $10 USD.

On the other hand, Fighter Credits can be earned through in-game challenges and progression, making them accessible to players without spending money. While it’s much more difficult to get these credits, it is possible to grind out enough for characters. Most characters in MultiVersus are priced at either 1,000 Gleamium or 3,000 Fighter Credits.

Buying new characters in MultiVersus

Earning Fighter Credits involves completing various in-game challenges and progressing through the game. Daily and weekly challenges offer rewards, so it’s beneficial to consistently attempt these. Additionally, participating in events and achieving milestones in the Battle Pass can boost your Fighter Credit balance.

For those looking to unlock characters quickly, purchasing Gleamium is the fastest route. By spending real-world money, you can immediately acquire enough Gleamium to unlock your desired characters. While most characters cost 1,000 Gleamium, some fighters, like The Joker, come with a higher price tag, so make sure you keep an eye on what you’re spending.

Occasionally, MultiVersus offers exclusive characters through special events or the premium Battle Pass. For example, Jason is currently unlocked via the premium Battle Pass. Similarly, Agent Smith can be unlocked through a limited-time in-game event, encouraging players to participate actively in these events to expand their roster. Players can steadily expand their roster and enjoy the diverse range of fighters available by playing within the game’s various systems.

MultiVersus is currently free-to-play on PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
