The player first sacrifices Multiversus in the middle of the live service purge

The player’s first games announced today that the next season of their Live Multiversus service fighting game will be the last. Season 5 will run from February 4 to May 30, after which the game will only be available to play offline. As of today, players will no longer be able to spend money on transactions in the game, and after finishing season 5, it will no longer be available to download. This places Multiverse on the list of live service multiplayer games that are being closed or no longer receive support from their editors.

According to the player first, season 5 will have the new final additions to the list: Aquaman and Lola Bunny. All the content of the game can be unlocking through the game, and players can still use any currency in the game they already have until May 30. The study assures players that the game will be available to play offline against friends in cooperative or against opponents “in the predictable future.” This occurs less than a year after Multiversus returned from a long out -of -line development process after his open beta, and only six months after the Warner Bros. Games acquired the study.

Multiversus is one of the many live service titles that has been abandoned by its creators in the last year, perhaps due to the lack of interest of incoming players. The failure and subsequent cancellation of Concord, as well as the Sony closure of the Firewalk developer shortly after, is the outstanding example, but there have been several others.

Ubisoft announced that I was wrapping live service FPS Xdefiant, although it seems to be a celebration of its internal multiple IP. Warner Bros. Games announced the end of content updates for the rocksteady suicide team: Kill The Justice League. Square Enix stopped supporting Splatoon Title of foam stars. Sony also canceled two live service titles in development in Blessed and BluePoint, the last of which was supposedly a game of God of war.
