MultiVersus to Shut Down After Season 5
Warner Bros. Games has announced the closure of MultiVersus, effective May 30, 2025, following its fifth and final season. The news, shared via the official MultiVersus Twitter (X) account and website on January 31, 2025, confirmed that Season 5 will be the game's last content update.
MultiVersus Season 5: A Final Farewell
Season 5, launching February 4, 2025, will introduce two new playable characters: Aquaman (DC) and Lola Bunny (Looney Tunes). All Season 5 content, including these characters, will be unlockable through gameplay. Following the season's conclusion on May 30, 2025, MultiVersus will be removed from the PlayStation Store, Microsoft Store, Steam, and Epic Games Store. No official reason for the shutdown has been provided.
Offline Mode: A Lasting Legacy
While online play will cease, MultiVersus will offer a local gameplay mode after Season 5 concludes. This allows solo play against AI or with up to three friends. To access this offline mode, players must download the latest game version between February 4 (9 AM PST) and May 30 (9 AM PDT, 2025). The game will automatically create a local save file linked to the player's account, preserving earned and purchased content.
Real-money transactions ended on January 31, 2025. Any remaining Gleamium (in-game currency) can be used until Season 5's end.
A Brief History and a Thank You
MultiVersus launched its public beta in July 2022, quickly gaining popularity as a free-to-play fighting game. Following a relaunch in May 2024 with added features and improvements, the game faced ongoing challenges, including technical issues and reported player count declines.
Despite these difficulties, MultiVersus will leave its mark with 35 playable characters from diverse franchises. Player First Games and Warner Bros. expressed gratitude for the community's support throughout the game's lifespan.
MultiVersus remains available for download on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC until May 30, 2025.
