The saga of MultiVersus deserves a chapter in gaming history, a cautionary tale alongside other ambitious failures. Yet, the game's final curtain call is approaching, with developers unveiling Lola Bunny and Aquaman as the last two characters to join the roster.
This announcement arrives amidst a wave of fan frustration, some escalating to threats against the development team. MultiVersus game director Tony Huynh responded with a lengthy message, pleading with players to refrain from targeting the team with threats.
Huynh apologized to fans whose desired characters didn't make it into the game, expressing hope they'll still enjoy Season 5's content. He clarified that character selection involves numerous complex factors, and his influence is less significant than some players believed.
Following the shutdown announcement, players voiced concerns about unspent in-game tokens, a promised benefit for purchasers of the $100 edition. This unfulfilled promise may have contributed to the heightened frustration and subsequent threats.
