Back in March of last year, Warner Bros. and Player First Games made the baffling and upsetting announcement that the open beta for its online multiplayer platform fighter MultiVersus – the one that released two seasons’ worth of content and microtransactions – was going offline in June without any refunds but a promise to launch fully in 2024, the ability to let players keep their progress, and the ability to play offline modes in the meanwhile; after that, there was absolute radio silence from the publisher and developer both.
That silence has finally been broken after nine months: Fellow blog MMO Fallout first noticed that the game’s official Twitter account suddenly came back to life yesterday with a simple post of, “*taps mic* testing, testing, 1, 2, 3.” There are otherwise no postings on the game’s official site, other social media accounts, or its Discord.
Naturally responses are running pretty wild, whipping back and forth between speculative surprise and understandable anger. In any case, it’s looking as if this multiplayer fighter is looking to get back in the spotlight.
