Dodge away!
Dodging in a fighting game such as MultiVersus is crucial, otherwise you’re on a fast-track to defeat. Fortunately, we’re here to show you how to do it if you’ve been unable to avoid a kick in the face.
There’s a lot to learn in MultiVersus such as performing combos, special attacks, collecting Rift Cauldron and unlocking characters, so it is unsurprising that some of the basics, such as dodging are passing players by.
Every character can perform a dodge, no matter if you’re playing as Superman or Tom and Jerry. It also has an extra effect that makes it more than just a quick way of avoiding an attack, so read on to find out how to perform a dodge in MultiVersus.
How to dodge in MultiVersus explained
To dodge in MultiVersus, you simply push Circle if you are playing on a PlayStation and B if you are using an Xbox.
If a dodge is initiated then you will temporarily gain invulnerability, meaning your opponent won’t do any damage when attacking. You’ll know if you’ve been successful as your character will have a white shimmer surrounding them.

Each character also has a dodge meter below them that measures how long your invulnerability will last. Every time you perform a dodge in a match, the meter will deplete and therefore shorten the length of time you will remain secure from enemy attacks.
But fear not, as the meter can be charged up gradually throughout the fight. To speed the process up, simply start attacking your enemy!
