The game has a few options for fighting vs bots.
Like the other fighting game, MultiVersus is a multiplayer experience first of all. No bots can be compared with the creative unpredictability of a human being. Still, playing against bots in MultiVersus may be great for training. It’s also a way to fill up teams for 2v2 matches.
Let’s figure out how to play against bots in MultiVersus. The guide highlights a few possibilities.
Rifts, the MultiVersus PvE mode
If you don’t feel ready to jump into multiplayer matchmaking but don’t want to bother with setting up your matches, play Multiplayer Rifts. The PvE mode contains lots of stages where you can face different opponents. You are free to take any fighter to these fights (if you’ve unlocked them), but some Rifts reward playing specific characters, like someone from DC or a villainous one.
Rifts are a fun adventure that helps players grasp the game basics. It even has some role-playing elements as you can unlock and level up special gems to boost various abilities.

- Set bots as teammates for you and your opponent. This may be helpful for training before playing with random people online. And it’s simply just a way to have fun with a friend.
