Gizmo From ‘Gremlins’ Coming to ‘MultiVersus’ Next Tuesday, Stripe to Follow

Published

on

It was reported last month that Player First Games and WB Games’ MultiVersus would be seeing the arrival of Stripe from Gremlins as part of its Season 1 content.  As it turns out, not only are we getting Stripe, but next week, Gizmo will be joining MultiVersus.

It all started with the official MultiVersus Twitter account posting a teaser video that alludes to Gizmo joining the game’s roster next Tuesday. Gizmo was never officially confirmed to be joining the game, only Stripe. That tweet was followed up by developer Player First Games chiming in, confirming that Gizmo will indeed be in the game, and would be joining the roster before Stripe.

And in case there was any doubt, Player First Games’ co-founder Tony Huynh confirmed that Gizmo and Stripe will be two separate characters for MultiVersus, and not a skin variation.

It’s still unclear as to when Stripe would be joining the game. And as we mentioned before, there’s speculation that other genre characters such as Beetlejuice and Eleven from Stranger Things would be making their way to the free-to-play game at some point, though neither Player First Games or WB Games have acknowledged these rumours.

There’s also been no date set for when Black Adam would be joining the roster, though given that Jaume Collet-Serra‘s Black Adam hits theatres October 21, you can bet that we’ll be seeing him around then.

Currently, you can play MultiVersus for free on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series and PC via Steam.

Thanks to Video Games Chronicle for the heads up.

Initially revealed last July, PQube and developer Electric Monkeys’ gothic horror survival title When the Light Dies is out now in Early Access on Steam. Complementing the release is a new trailer/gameplay guide. According to the press release, Electric Monkeys plans on having the roguelike to be fully released in September 2024.

According to the developer, the Early Access period will allow them to polish and address player feedback for When the Light Dies, releasing new updates containing everything from new enemies, weapons, items, passive upgrades, and dark magic abilities, to end-of-stage bosses. In fact, the next update for When the Light Dies is expected on May 28, which will include new items, a new weapon and an additional boss encounter “to add an extra level of challenge”.

When the Light Dies is a survival game with roguelite elements set in a desolate, frozen wilderness. You are a lone survivor fighting to keep the darkness and the horrors that lurk within it at bay. To do so, you must utilize your arsenal of weapons to hold back waves of creatures closing in from all directions.

That’s on top of keeping the light burning by lighting scattered firepits around you. You’ll of course have to refill your oil lantern to keep your path lit. As the light levels drop so does your sanity, resulting in faster and more deadly adversaries.

Right now, you can snag When the Light Dies with a 10% discount until May 16th.
