The list of levels is as eclectic as the roster of characters itself. One minute you\u2019ll be brawling in the moody Bat Cave, the next you\u2019ll be in a lab from Cartoon Network\u2019s classic show Dexter\u2019s Laboratory.<\/p>\n<p>But is this all enough for gamers to drop what they\u2019re already playing and hop back into the bonkers brawler? Let\u2019s take a look.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>MultiVersus player count: How many people are playing?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>At the time of writing, <strong>23,007 people<\/strong> are playing MultiVersus, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/steamcharts.com\/app\/1818750#All\">Steam Charts<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Across the last 24 hours, 79,024 players were online in the game, which represents a huge spike in activity since it came back online.<\/p>\n<p>Interest in the game had previously declined rapidly, with the number of players reducing just months after the open beta\u2019s release in June 2022.<\/p>\n<p>By the time it went offline in April 2023, there were only several hundred people in the game.<\/p>\n<p>As time passes and the game grows, there is a good chance these numbers will increase.<\/p>\n<p>[squirrel-affiliate-playlist squirrel_playlist_id=\u201d653\u2033 \/]<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What was the MultiVersus player count peak?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div
