MultiVersus: All Perks Explained
Perks are a type of power-up in MultiVersus, and they allow you to make your character stronger. If both players on a team select the same Perk, it will become stacked. It means that the effects of the Perk will become even more powerful! Perks in MultiVersus are divided into the following three categories with their respective color codes:
- Offense
- Defense
- Utility
Unlocking the Perks can be done either by reaching a certain level with your fighters or via Perk Training. The latter can be unlocked by simply reaching Mastery Level 9 with your chosen character.
