Riot Games, the developer of League of Legends, has scrapped a Super Smash Bros. Melee-inspired fighting game featuring League characters called ‘Pool Party’. The game was reportedly in development for some time, with 80 employees working on it. However, the project was canceled after facing internal criticism and concerns about the competitive scene for Smash-like games.
After a long wait, MultiVersus is finally relaunching next week. This reworked version of the game includes a new fighter, horror icon Jason Voorhees, who has been reimagined to fit the game’s unique style. Jason is a bulky tank character whose central mechanic is building up “gray health” that he can use to absorb damage and prevent him from getting knocked back while charging up powerful attacks. This is a clever way to adapt a hulking slasher villain like Jason into a multiplayer-minded fighting game like MultiVersus.
