Beetlejuice’s voice lines have since been removed due to copyright, but players can still listen into some of Wicked Witch’s voice lines. This particular leak has also been confirmed by credible MultiVersus leaker Susie, who shared in-game codes that pointed at the creepy duo as upcoming characters.

Beetlejuice and Wicked Witch to release in MultiVersus
So far, the developer has introduced similar fighters in pairs. Beetlejuice and Wicked Witch are both on the horror beat, suggesting they might enter the squad in the Halloween update. That being said, players should expect two new playable characters in October.
Currently, there are four fighters lined up for MultiVersus. Rick and Morty will be available on 23 August, and Black Adam and Stripe will join next. There’s likely no new fighter slated for the beginning of season one. Beetlejuice and Wicked Witch could possibly enter somewhere in October. Whatever the case, players may want to begin stacking up plenty of Gleamium as new characters can quickly be unlocked through in-game currency or more slowly by playing the game.
