Mutators

The Mutators' reveal from the "Official PvE Rifts Mode Overview" trailer.

Mutators are alterations in MultiVersus that are used in the Rifts mode. They add certain effects and conditions to Nodes, both helpful and harmful.

Types of Mutators

There are three types of mutators: Players, Enemies, and Stage. Player Mutators will affect the moves or attributes of Fighters, Enemy Mutators will only affect the enemy fighters, and Stage Mutators will affect elements of the Map or overall gameplay (such as mini-games).

Trivia

The unused "Get Away" Mutator.

• The icon used for the Giant Mutator is reused from the scrapped Up, Up, and A-Slay Perk.
  • This makes Giant the only Mutator of which icon is not in the shape of a triangle.
• An unused Mutator, known internally as "Get Away", can sometimes be seen in the Mutator section of a Node while its contents are loading.
