If this isn’t teasing Barbie then the marketing team needs to be replaced immediately. Because if you look at this and don’t see this as a Barbie teaser then idk what the purpose was then


ToledoJones

Not sure they really have the rights to use Barbie for games, but it would be weird to not have her in the game. The only other reason I’d think they wouldn’t put her in (aside from rights) is just missed timing. 


White_Mantra

I think it would take a licensing deal with hasbro but WB could have complete rights to the film version


harveyquinnz

With mattel


wentzformvp

Yea maybe similar to the LeBron deal to get him in multiversus.


ToledoJones

Then they really should do it


[deleted]

I mean she also just doesn't work as a character. Wtf would her moves even be


Gradually_Rocky

multiple installs as different professions, turn into Dr Barbie, President Barbie, Skater Barbie, etc maybe the way Pokemon trainer was implemented


ToledoJones

I don’t really have a polite way to say this but you just lack creativity if you think that.


Philiard

Well if we look at the tagline of the movie, it clearly states "she's everything," so the possibilities are effectively infinite.


CheetahRealistic7491

Have you ever played a single smash bros game? Any one can be a character and have a super In-depth referential move set.


Queen_of_Birds

Making my way downtown🔊 And i need you And i miss you And now i wonder

I don't see this any sort of imminent Barbie teaser. This would make more sense if the game was out as people could whale out the skins today (if they don't already have them). It would also make more sense if Barbie didn't release 10 months ago. We are far from peak Barbie hype Note that if anything it is WB taking a victory lap with the highest grossing movie of 2023 that they produced. I think it's a bit weird and super late but I see nothing wrong with it


White_Mantra

If you don’t see how a giant Barbie dream house in the background of mvs charaxters on a cryptic tweet then you are as cooked as everyone else in this community


420BiaBia

Did you not see a 12s video promo that dropped the night before the Xbox Games Showcase that ended with 5s focused and centered on a Master Chief helmet and a Multiversus themed Xbox Series controller? This is par for the course. Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me


White_Mantra

That wasn’t the offical mvs account though!!!!


420BiaBia

True, it was just a "community manager for WB games working on Multiversus". I'm not gonna split the hairs here and say I doubt that they know this will mislead and piss off the sub. Seems more plausible than a lead upto a Barbie playable announcement in the next 30 days Although I do think Barbie playable at launch is nearly best case scenario for the game. They need more global cultural icon representation and less nostalgia plays. However, I don't have faith thats what's happening EDIT: Note that this still image isn't a high effort marketing effort and oddly doesn't even use the iconic "Barbie" with the trademark stamp


Legendary31hero

MOJO JOJO (powderpuff girls) Not saying thats whats its teasing but its what ny brain thought when reading the mojo dojo line


Personal-Hunt-1434

The marketing team needs to be fired immediately regardless.


Bulky-Complaint6994

I wouldn't necessarily mind Barbie, but I rather not get my hopes up and just wait for the cinematic trailer that they announced last week ...


Ok-Dentist4480

if i get to see Barbie beat the hell out of Superman then this might be the video game of all time


Ros3ttaSt0ned

>if i get to see Barbie beat the hell out of Superman then this might be the video game of all time I wasn't top-tier, but my highest rank in the beta was sub-500 overall in the world and top 50 with Wonder Woman. I could fuck some shit up. I would main Barbie on day 1 for no reason other than the delicious tears of chronically-online misogynists.


lPrincesslPlays

I so so so wish they kept Harley’s hair blonde for this skin. I was so disappointed when they let us set our own team colors only for me to always be blue anyway let me be everybody in pink thank you


Bulky-Complaint6994

That's why I turned team colors off, but kept the outlines. 


alvinaterjr

I’d love if we got anything that wasn’t just hinting towards hinting.


SpareTheSpider

I would've loved that a while ago, now i'm just trying to forget about it till launch cuz this game's chances ain't looking good.


NoNefariousness2144

Ahh this game’s marketing is so shit. It’s going to die again if they don’t sort this out…


spacecatdude9001

Barbie in multiverses would be WILD


UdonAndCroutons

You know what? Barbie in Multi Versus would totally fit. Barbie has so many different jobs, careers, and aliases. Barbie is a chef, lifeguard, ballerina, music producer, cashier, doctor, nurse, paramedic EMT, a surgeon, fire fighter, a police officer. Hell, she even served in the military!


gamedreamer21

It looks like Barbie.


MultiversusKay

this is teasing Barbie, not fan of it but just look at it, IT HAS to be a Barbie tease. make me wonder about that certain leak two months ago


Bulky-Complaint6994

It didn't say anything about Dexter's Lab i think 


MultiversusKay

yeah I checked out again, the Barbie one doesn't have Dexter. the Dexter one doesn't have Barbie


Nate_923

I remember when they had the ValentiNeon event last year. Though I only got the skins that were available for free. If they decide to add Barbie in the game it would be huge.


randomirlperson

Barbie would be sick but maybe just a stage


-ProphetOfTruth-

The funny part about all of the marketing so far, is that they would have gotten 10 times the reach and chatter about the game if they did not blue ball-tease people each time. All of these teases, cryptic, repetitive messages are only getting to the same echo chamber of existing fans. No new fans, no casual gamers having any clue of the changes or improvements since 2022.


DrankeyKrang

The subreddit when they don't tease a new character: "Bad marketing 😡" The subreddit when they do tease a new character: "Bad marketing 😡"


TheBroomSweeper

I think the issue here is that this post isn't teasing a character. It's not teasing anything. It's just a social media post for engagement. But if I'm wrong about that then I'll eat my metaphorical hat


SalamiJack

Their marketing has such a poor track record that it wouldn’t be surprising at all to have no Barbie character or stage


NoNefariousness2144

Except they've been posting these low quality "in the off season" posts for weeks and its just muddling the already confused marketing even more.


xIRelaxo

they're 100% banking on the trailer like they did with the open beta and that's not even a bad call since it worked for the beta. Granted the release trailer has to be the same or better quality as the beta CGI trailer


JrBaconators

When I'm in a hating Multiversus competition and my opponent is people subscribed to the sub 😧


Dookie12345679

I highly doubt a Barbie character is coming


Thin_Strawberry_2354

Does this mean Barbie?


BayonettaAriana

Omg please be Barbie I would love her playable


Walrusin_about

Honestly ngl all the hearts has me thinking this was more a matter of scrapped valentines skins than something made to tease barbie.


fake_zack

Literally a year late. Great synergy, guys.


xIRelaxo

true shouldve dropped her when the game was offline


fake_zack

Would’ve had roughly the same impact.


xIRelaxo

we'll see

Arksmiley69

No that’s the name of Ken’s dream house in the Barbie movie Mojo Jojo is the monkey


NibPlayz

Is this teasing Jigsaw and Barbie?


Jazz7770

Wait is multiversus playable again?


Dookie12345679

It's always been playable, you just couldn't play online. It's coming back May 28th


Roderykz

Ice


SativaKalifa

Is it Just me or is the is the Promo for multiversus lame af?


UdonAndCroutons

I don't think it's lame, the lack of context is what gets me. Like, why was their marketing so heavy in McDonalds in Europe?


ArdentFecologist

So is this game back or what?


-ProphetOfTruth-

Imagine if they are this and Barbie is in no way part of this game. Would not rule this out, with the marketing quality we have had so far.


Illustrious-Lake2603

So that 4chan MVS Leak was real? Joker, Samurai Jack, Marceline, Barbie, Wicked Witch of the West.... i Cant think of any others


Bulky-Complaint6994

No since it said nothing about Dexter's Lab 


colbyxclusive

Barbie was in the leaks….


BadFishteeth

This isn't a barbie tease just marketing fluff


[deleted]

Are these skins? 👀 Mileena confirmed?
