Cartoon Network: Punch Time Explosion XL vs MultiVersus - Samurai Jack Animation/Moveset Comparison

With the beginning of MultiVersus' 2nd season, Samurai Jack was also added as a playable character for the game. Out of everyone in MultiVersus' roster so far, Samurai Jack is actually the first character to have previously appeared in Cartoon Network: Punch Time Explosion (and the updated XL port for consoles). Thus, this video showcases the differences between Samurai Jack in both game appearances between animations to the in-game movesets.
As footage for Punch Time Explosion XL was recorded with RPCS3, aspects such as visual & audio might not be accurate to the actual game (this also may not apply if these are native to the actual PlayStation 3 port itself compared to the Wii & Xbox 360 versions).

Even though PTE has more actions in its moveset, Multiversus' just looks a lot less jank and more polished visually

10:10 they weren’t kidding when they said Jack could jump good

[@caiobarreto6550]

YOU CAN FLYYYYYYYYY?!

[@adamdimitri2562]

​@@caiobarreto6550No,jump good

PTE Jack: Marth Multiversus Jack: Cloud but with Sephiroth’s sword!

[@amaterachu1]

@@thegam3rcube686 PTE Jack is more of a rushdown fighter than a technical character like Marth. I like calling him fox with a sword

[@vaporcran4]

@@amaterachu1so roy?

[@amaterachu1]

@@vaporcran4 Maybe. He actually does have a tipper mechanic on down smash but it only changes how much knockback is dealt rather than damage. He's a very movement and combo focused character with some of the fastest attacks in the game. His moveset works very well with PTE's overall rushdown centric and fast paced gameplay.

[@amaterachu1]

It's still kinda crazy how similar their moveset is. They just made Jack slower and more of a bruiser than assassin in Multiversus Also Jack's PTE gives a 1.5x damage boost... Except to grab. For some reason grab's damage doesn't change at all.

Great music selection bro !

[@blackenergy017]

Damn i miss punch time explosion, i loved that game

[@CarbyGuuGuu]

The Check It stage, though. Bringing back memories of early 2010s CN.

[@skullking6017]

Thanks for making this video! I was hoping someone would make a comparison video at some point. It's wild to see how different the two are but it makes sense. I hope you make one for PPG even though they will definitely play differently and probably have zero similarities due to being a 3-in-1 character versus three separate characters.

[@joshuacampos7970]

We need all characters from Punch Time Explosion to enter MultiVersus (Including Samurai Jack and The Powerpuff Girls) Captain Planet Ben Tennyson Ben Tennyson (Young) Kevin Levin Vilgax The Powerpuff Girls Mojo Jojo HIM Samurai Jack Aku The Scotsman Dexter Monkey Chowder Flapjack Captain K'nuckles Grim Billy and Mandy Hoss Delgado Numbuh One Father Toiletnator Mac and Bloo Johnny Bravo So what do you think?

[@tedgonzalez985]

Not all of them. Just the bigger names like Dexter, Ben 10, Grim, Mojo Jojo, maybe Johnny Bravo. And maybe when there's more demand, we can have more like Aku, Vilgax and Numbuh One.

[@vincenzomarinostylex9765]

Who else likes to pretend that Multiverses takes place in the same timeline as PTE?

[@zakiSF21]

Chat which moves did you prefer punchtime explosion or Multiversus i chose multiverus 😅

[@spongebobfan78]

Ngl, Multiversus is better overall, but PTE somehow portrays Jack's sword to be sharp and deadly. It looks blunt in Multiversus like it's a bat.

[@Batt1nsonsolos]

prob cus of the outline on the characters

[@mythosinfinite6736]

​​​@@Batt1nsonsolos and the sound design. It sounds audibly sharp in PTE, but Multiversus somehow decided that a "vwoop" sound is the sound made by a cutting weapon. It ends up making it sound blunt, and possibly even soft.

[@vincenzomarinostylex9765]

Times were different

[@silverbladeO2]

You forgot to include that the Multiversus Samurai Jack's Ground Neutral Special Counter will shoot out a projectile when countering a projectile regardless of Focus Meter

[@shadowvictor7590]

Powerpuff Girls soon

Yes

[@magmarxiogaming6717]

interesting how jack's specials stayed mostly the same from PTE to MVS, they work a little differently but for the most part PTE got a lot right on their first try with the specials.

[@_Tygon_]

Great idea! Love Punchtime on PS3 most broken game ever 😂

[@Pestomancer]

I'm so glad cartoon network characters are getting another chance to be in a platform fighting game.

[@hence2nd]

i like the PTE jack look more he looks tall & big in mvs when he never look like that and plus they need to add the ninja skin to mvs dope video they need more PTE

[@backup368]

Sword Shaggy: Under the hood.

[@Willchannel90]

Huge happening when fictionals had own references and comparison.

[@DarknessXTJ]

Maybe MultiVersus should learn from Cartoon Network: Punchtime Explosion XL

[@nuibaba280]

Considering MVS' is successful while Punchtime never got a sequel, I think not lol

[@c.d.l.r9679]

Hacia falta un video asi Le vienen Blossom/Bom Bom pero creo seran las tres juntas Igual Dexter esta medio confirmado

[@crashy918]

Now that the Powerpuff Girls are in MVS, comparison of their moveset(s) from Punchtime Explosion and MVS when?

[@Shreeder40]

It's been working on but the main blocker atm is the Rowdyruff Boys. Essentially I do not have enough time to grind them out of the battle pass, so I have to wait for them to be available by purchase for the video.

[@vincenzomarinostylex9765]

Old VS New!

Cool
