MultiVersus's story is a cautionary tale for the gaming industry, a stark reminder of development challenges akin to the infamous Concord debacle. Yet, the game's final chapter is unfolding, with the reveal of Lola Bunny and Aquaman as the last two characters to join the roster.
This announcement follows a wave of fan frustration, some expressing their disappointment through unacceptable threats directed at the development team. MultiVersus game director Tony Huynh responded with a heartfelt message, pleading with players to refrain from such behavior.
Huynh offered an apology to fans whose desired characters didn't make it into the game, expressing hope that they'll still find enjoyment in the final Season 5 content. He also explained the complex factors influencing character selection, emphasizing his limited control over these decisions, contrary to some fans' perceptions.
The impending shutdown of MultiVersus has further fueled player discontent, particularly regarding the inability to spend in-game tokens on new characters – a promised perk for buyers of the $100 edition. This unfulfilled promise may have contributed to the escalating threats.
