I've been playing around with it for a bit, but I don't really see what it has to offer that Vagrant doesn't already do.

"multipass launch" and "multipass shell" do the same as "vagrant up" and "vagrant ssh".

Vagrant has been around since 2010 and is super mature by now. Multipass seems to be limited to LTS Ubuntu releases, for now at least. There are Vagrant boxes for all Ubuntu releases but also Debian, CentOS or whatever else you would want to run.

The advantage over Vagrant is that it's a lot less complex. I've tried Vagrant on Windows before and really struggled with it, when all I wanted was a quick and easy way to launch lots of VMs.

Mounting a disk and getting two way sync was insanely easier for me at least, I was struggling with Unison version matching with Vagrant.
