The saga of MultiVersus deserves a chapter in gaming history, a cautionary tale alongside the likes of the Concorde. Yet, the game isn't quite finished; developers have announced its final two characters: Lola Bunny and Aquaman.
This announcement arrives amidst considerable fan frustration, some expressing their disappointment with threats directed at the development team. MultiVersus game director Tony Huynh responded with a lengthy message, pleading with players to refrain from such behavior.
Huynh apologized to fans whose desired characters weren't included, expressing hope they'll enjoy the remaining content in Season 5. He clarified that character additions are complex, influenced by numerous factors beyond his direct control, dispelling some fans' assumptions about his decision-making power.
Following the shutdown announcement, some players voiced concerns about their inability to spend in-game tokens on new characters—a promised benefit for purchasers of the $100 edition. This unfulfilled promise may have contributed to the escalating frustrations and threats.
