MultiVersus Unveils Final Characters Amid Fan Threats to Developers

The story of MultiVersus is one that could easily find its way into gaming industry textbooks, standing alongside other notable failures like Concord. Yet, the game is set to have its own final act, as the developers have announced the addition of the last two characters: Lola Bunny and Aquaman.

Amidst this announcement, there's been a wave of frustration among fans, with some even resorting to threatening the developers. In response, MultiVersus game director Tony Huynh took to a lengthy message to address the community, pleading for an end to the threats directed at the team.

Huynh extended an apology to those fans who were disappointed not to see their favorite characters included in MultiVersus. He expressed optimism that players would find enjoyment in the content provided during the game's final Season 5. He also shed light on the complexities behind adding new characters to the game, emphasizing that his influence over these decisions was far less than what some fans might have believed.

Following the news of MultiVersus shutting down, some players expressed their discontent over not being able to use their in-game tokens to unlock new characters—a benefit that was promised to those who bought the $100 edition of the game. This issue may have been a significant factor contributing to the heightened emotions and subsequent threats.
