What’s more predictable: another live service game suddenly shutting down, or gamers overreacting to a perceived slight and threatening developers for doing their jobs? We’ve seen both of these all-too-common phenomena in one story this week, as the developers of MultiVersus announced its imminent closure, and a small group of players predictably resorted to harassment to express their frustration.
On January 31, developer Player First Games announced that the end of the upcoming Season 5 would also mark the end of MultiVersus. Running from February 4 to May 30, Season 5 introduces two new characters to MultiVersus — Aquaman and Lola Bunny — meaning that anyone wanting to check out the new roster additions will have only a short time to do so. After MultiVersus’ servers shut down, the game will remain playable offline for solo play or local multiplayer.
