Bad news, MultiVersus fans. DC Comics anti-hero Black Adam has been delayed, and Player First Games says he’s still “not quite ready” to join the platformer.
He was initially revealed in August – although he had already appeared on the list of leaked MultiVersus characters before that – along with Gremlins’ Stripe. He’s been knocking around since 1945, originally introduced as a wildly powerful supervillain to Shazam. In more recent times, he has turned to more of an anti-hero, but could still deal a blow to Superman.
Black Adam was supposed to premiere this week, presumably to tie in with the Dwayne Johnson movie, which came out on October 21. Unfortunately, his release was delayed at the last minute.
“The gods have spoken and Black Adam is not quite ready to change the hierarchy of MultiVersus,” the developers say in a tweet. “Stay tuned and thanks for your patience, Mortals.”
Technical system designer Devin “Reslived” Gajewski said the choice to delay was “rough”, but added “we needed the time. I think this patch more than any other will be worth the wait. Just got to catch up.”

There is no rescheduled release date for Black Adam yet. He’s supposed to land alongside a new arcade mode, though Player First didn’t mention if that was delayed as well. With the first season of MultiVersus ending on November 15th, hopefully, we’ll see Black Adam and Superman before then.
Beyond Black Adam and Streak, who released on October 12th, it is unknown who will be joining the list next. Leaked data mining showed Joker soon on the way, and even more excitingly voiced by the legendary Mark Hamill. Outside of more DC fighters, there’s a chance we might see Lord of the Rings or even Mortal Kombat characters join the fray in the near future.
