If Season 5 of MultiVersus fails to meet expectations, it could mark the end of the game. AusilMV, a well-known insider with a track record of accurate game leaks, has shared this concerning rumor. According to his reliable source, Season 5 represents a critical, last-ditch effort to revive the game's fortunes. While this remains unconfirmed, the situation appears dire.
At its launch in 2022, MultiVersus enjoyed tremendous success, peaking at 153,000 concurrent players on Steam. However, the game's online presence quickly dwindled by 99%, prompting Warner Bros. Games to close the project in June 2023, labeling it an "open beta test." Despite a return in May 2024 with updates, the game has struggled to recapture its initial popularity.
Scheduled to kick off in early February, Season 5 of MultiVersus is seen as the developers' final opportunity to re-engage the player base. Essentially, this season serves as a relaunch, although the developers have opted to categorize the original 2022 release as a "beta." While the game was warmly received at first, the decision to temporarily shut it down in June 2023, announced in March of that year, left many players, particularly those who had purchased the premium edition to support the developers, feeling frustrated and disappointed.
