Warner Bros. Games has announced that Mark Hamill’s Joker is joining the MultiVersus video game, which means a reunion with the late Kevin Conroy’s Batman.
The news is a surprise as following the death of Conroy back in 2022, Mark Hamill said he wouldn’t be voicing Joker anymore without his friend; however, since Conroy provided the voice for Batman in the game prior to his death, we see Hamill decided to join the game.
It’s also known that both Mark Hamill and Kevin Conroy will be a part of the upcoming release of the Justice League: Crisis On Infinite Earths Part 3 animated movie that gets released in the summer, which looks to be the last time the pair will be featured in a project.
Watch the teaser below which features Mark Hamill as the Joker teasing the character in the game along with Bugs Bunny, Shaggy, and Arya Stark. Batman passes the characters and confronts Joker. Full trailer to follow on Monday.
MultiVersus gets released on May 28, 2024 and will be available for the PS5 (PlayStation 5), PS4 (PlayStation 4), Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC (Steam and Epic Games Store).
