MultiVersus represents one of the weirder falls from grace in recent years. Launched in beta to a wave of success, the game was taken offline in order to be retooled for its full 1.0 launch. Unfortunately, the final product wound up being inferior to the beta for a multitude of reasons, leading to the announcement of its impending closure. Now, MultiVersus is officially dead and has been delisted.

As of now, MultiVersus has been officially taken offline and has been delisted from all storefronts. Those who logged into the game during its 5th Season can continue to play the game (and redownload if necessary), however there are no longer any online services running  – meaning you’ll have to make do with either solo vs AI or local play.

As mentioned, MultiVersus was a hit when it first launched into open beta back in 2022, seeing over 150,000 concurrent players on Steam at its peak. In an odd decision however, instead of continuing to build upon the beta leading to its 1.0 release, WB opted to take the game fully offline for roughly a year.

Upon its return last year, MultiVersus was criticised for many of its changes, ranging from gameplay to monetisation and more. Despite this, WB seemed committed, and went on to acquire the developers Player First Games shortly following its relaunch.

Finally however, back in January MultiVersus was confirmed to be shutting down in May – followed shortly by the announced closure of Player First Games. All in all a rather depressing end to what appeared at one time to be a promising new mascot fighter.
