Agent Smith

Agent Smith is a Fighter from The Matrix Universe in MultiVersus. He was revealed on May 20th, 2024, and was released on July 8th, 2024 during Season 1 as a reward for reaching Tier 20 in the Beat Rifts, Get Agent Smith Free! Event, with his formal release being on July 23rd, 2024.

Origin

Agent Smith is the main antagonist of The Matrix franchise. Smith was an Agent of the system and, like other Agents, had the role to police and maintain the Matrix by eliminating potential threats to the stability of the system, which were mostly seen to be Redpills and defunct programs. Agent Smith was personified as stern, serious, and nearly invincible. He was also notably stronger and faster than the other Agents. After getting destroyed by Neo, he becomes an Exile and manifests as a computer virus with the uncanny ability to copy himself over the minds of Bluepills, Redpills and programs alike. Following his initial dissolvement, Smith gained an extreme nihilistic outlook on life. As described by both himself and the Oracle, his ultimate goal became the destruction of all existence itself; Humanity, Zion, The Matrix, even the Machine World and by extension, himself, which he nearly succeeded in doing.

Official Biography

Programmed to defend the Matrix, what he became was something far more.

Smith is one of the deadliest Agents ever tasked with defending the Matrix. With his staggering speed, uncanny aim, and insatiable hunger for control he’s ready to make the Multiverse his playground.

Other Roles

AS A BOSS

A fake Agent Smith appears as the Boss in the Age of Smith Rift. His Boss battle takes place on the Dexter's Laboratory 2 Map. His fight has seven phases.

• Smith fights alone.
• Smith teleports into the background and summons a code copy of Jason Voorhees.
• Smith re-enters the foreground, now with a Robot Drone alongside him that fire lasers at Fighters periodically.
• Smith teleports into the background and summons a code copy of Stripe.
• Smith re-enters the foreground, now with two big Robot Drones hovering along the top platforms on either side. These fire periodic lasers along the ground of the Map. They can be destroyed but respawn seconds later. These remain for the remainder of the fight.
• Smith teleports into the background and summons a code copy of The Joker.
• Smith re-enters the foreground. Agents appear randomly around the Map and will grab Fighters who come into contact with them.

The real Agent Smith is fought in the Triple Threat Rift. The fight is the same as his fake version's, except now he instead summons code copies of Finn, Batman, and Superman.

He is fought a second time in the Triple Threat Rift, as Smith is part of the titular "Triple Threat" fight. He fights alongside Jason Voorhees while The Joker sits in the background. Here, he has no special Mutators. The fight takes place on the Throne Room Map.

Trivia

Agent Smith's file.

• The texture used for Agent Smith's file that's used in his Victory Animation features script segments of the "Universe" episode from the Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! show on Adult Swim, which became a viral internet meme. The final paragraph references a 2009 4chan meme.
