Rumors swirl that Season 5 of MultiVersus could be its last. Insider AusilMV, known for accurate game leaks, cites a reliable source suggesting the season is a final attempt to revive the struggling game. While currently just speculation, the situation is concerning.
The game's initial 2022 launch was a phenomenal success, boasting a peak of 153,000 concurrent players on Steam. However, a dramatic 99% player drop led Warner Bros. Games to shut down the project in June 2023, labeling it an "open beta test." A relaunch with updates followed in May 2024, but failed to recapture its initial popularity.
Launching in early February, Season 5 represents a crucial turning point for MultiVersus. It’s essentially a second chance, though the developers framed the 2022 release as a beta test. Despite the initial positive player reception, the March 2023 announcement of a temporary June shutdown angered many, particularly those who had purchased the premium edition. The success or failure of Season 5 will likely determine the game's future.
