MultiVersus to End After Season 5 Wraps Up in May

Player First Games has announced the shutdown of its multiplayer brawler MultiVersus, with Season 5 marking the final season before services end on May 30, 2025. This announcement follows a disappointing launch in 2024 and substantial financial losses for Warner Bros. Discovery, which reported a $100 million shortfall linked to the game's poor performance. Although players can still enjoy offline modes and access previous content, support for online play will cease after the final season. The game will be unlisted from all major platforms at the time of closure. Season 5 will introduce new characters such as Lola Bunny and Aquaman, as Player First aims to conclude the game with engaging content for fans.

MultiVersus is shutting down due to underperformance and disappointing financial results, leading to significant losses for Warner Bros. Discovery. Despite being a highly anticipated title, it failed to attract a sustainable player base.

Launched on May 28, 2022, MultiVersus was a free-to-play crossover fighting game featuring characters from Warner Bros.' extensive catalog, including DC Comics and Looney Tunes. The game's initial excitement was marred by ongoing balance issues and competition within the genre, ultimately resulting in its premature closure shortly after its one-year anniversary.
