Metaverse Champions was a Roblox event that started on April 15, 2021, and ended on May 20, 2021. It was the year's "Spring Hunt" as a rebrand of the annual egg hunt. The event was spread into four weeks, with up to 48 games a week and 10-12 for each champion.
Users could win Rthro bundle items, mystery boxes, and an egg. Mystery boxes would open into different items starting on May 17, 2021, until the event concluded, along with a grand prize which was obtainable in the Hub, themed around the winning champion: Sparks Kilowatt.
This was the first "Spring Hunt" to only feature one egg, being the Tiny Egg of Nonexistence.

Criticism[]
- The event had received heavy criticism from users for a paid access game, Emergency Response: Liberty County, being included in Week 1 for AJ Striker.[1] Initially, the game could have been purchased for 95 Robux[2] until its price was decreased to 50 Robux.[3] As the developers refused to make the game free for the week, this has led many users to believe AJ Striker's team is at a disadvantage. Later on April 19, Emergency Response: Liberty County was removed from the game selection pool, however the badge still counted towards the total Badge count in the Hub until May 14.
- Tank Warfare was criticized for having a pay to win gamepass, even though the player could easily get AJ Striker's Crate without buying the gamepass.
- Tower Defense Simulator was criticized for the game not being updated for the event (remaining in it's Halloween 2020 phase when the event launched). However, it was updated almost instantly to both the event and the Frost Invasion phase.
- Most of the games had no theme of the metaverse like Field Trip Z and Obby Run.
- This Game is Pain has been criticized for being too hard for most of the players. Nearly 5,000 users received the Badge there, making it the hardest Badge in the event (however, this was assumed because of an announcement and the title).
- Many games were criticized for having extremely 'grindy' quests - quests that required many repetitive and/or time-consuming objectives.
- The following are some games that contained the 'grindy' quests:
- This Game is Pain (Very hard; hence the name)
- Teddi (Objective was to complete every chapter (14 hours)
- Car Crushers 2 (Objective was to get a specific addon and car. The cost of the trowel was too high, and the car took long to unlock. Those who already had played the game had an easier time, since they had already unlocked the car and could get the addon, those who were only there for the crate had to grind a lot.)
- Ant Colony Simulator
- Power Simulator 2 (Players had to go all around the large map, and there were lots of tasks that required you to go all over the map.)
- The following are some games that contained the 'grindy' quests:
- Originally, before the event started, people complained that this was replacing the Egg Hunt 2021. This was later compensated with the arrival of the Tiny Egg of Nonexistence quest, giving the player an egg and paying a tribute to the Egg Hunts' past, by showcasing every egg in the Hall of Eggs.

- During Week 3, AJ Striker originally had a 12th game, Bloxtopia, but was removed a day later on April 30, 2021.
