, fully known as Rick Sanchez, is a Fighter from the Rick and Morty Universe in MultiVersus. He was revealed on July 22nd, 2022 at San Diego Comic Con and was released on September 27th, 2022.

Origin
Rick Sanchez of Dimension C-137 is one of the titular central protagonists of the 2013 Adult Swim animated series Rick and Morty. Rick is an alcoholic, nihilistic, and megagenius reckless scientist who's considered by many to be the smartest man in the universe, as well as its most wanted criminal. He's Beth's father, Jerry's father-in-law, and Morty & Summer's grandpa. While not an actual villain, Rick has done enough heinous acts throughout the show to solidify himself the title of an antihero.

Official Biography
"Listen, I'm not the nicest guy in the universe, because I'm the smartest, and being nice is something stupid people do to hedge their bets."

"Let me deus ex machina this sh*t and go home!"

A nihilistic mega-genius and one of the galaxies most wanted. Earth-hailing scientist Rick Sanchez has seen just about everything reality has to offer. Nearly always accompanied by his grandson Morty, the two of them have saved the galaxy and the space/time continuum dozens of times.

Default Variant
Rick's default look is based on his design from Rick and Morty.

Trivia

 * Rick's quote from the official website originally incorrectly said "day ex machina" instead of "deus ex machina". Player First Games CEO and CoFounder Tony Huynh thought that this change could've been intentional.
 * The quote was eventually fixed on September 1st, 2022.
 * The quote was also taken near-verbatim from an episode of Rick and Morty, where it is correctly pronounced "deus".
 * Although the Rick we see in-game is the one from the C-137 dimension, he has two recycled voice lines in which he states that he's either the Rick of the D-716 dimension or the Rick of the D-716B dimension.
 * Rick's neutral ground special is named after the Meeseeks' debut episode of the same name.
 * Rick, Batman, Harley Quinn, and Morty are, currently, the only Fighters in the game who can swear if the player has toggled the "Mature Language" option on in the Settings menu.
