Mark Hamill will return as the voice of The Joker forMultiversus, Warner Brothers and Player First Games haveconfirmed, following several years away from the role. A brief teaser, posted toX/Twitter, gives some of The Joker’s moves, while a short trailer was posted toYouTubewith a longer one to come later.

Hamill publicly retired from the role after long-time Batman opposite Kevin Conroy’sdeathin 2022, saying that “Without Batman, there is no punchline.” Conroy does voice Batman in Multiversus, so this may be one of the last few times that Hamill appears as the Joker.

The Joker’s Multiversus class is listed as Mage, one of the characters that fights from mid to long distance using projectiles and traps. His three moves are listed as a chargeable upward crowbar swing, a thrown playing card that cycles through three different effects, and a chargeable, fired rocket launcher projectile.
