MultiVersus Unveils Final Characters Amid Fan Threats to Developers

The story of MultiVersus is one that could be studied in gaming industry textbooks, akin to the cautionary tale of Concord. As the game approaches its end, the developers have unveiled the final two characters to join the roster: Lola Bunny and Aquaman. This announcement, however, has been met with a mix of excitement and frustration among fans, some of whom have escalated their disappointment to the extent of issuing threats against the developers.

In response, MultiVersus game director Tony Huynh took to social media to address the community. In a heartfelt message, he pleaded with players to refrain from threatening the development team. Huynh extended an apology to those fans who were hoping to see their favorite characters added to the game, emphasizing that the final Season 5 would still offer enjoyable content. He also shed light on the complexities behind character additions, noting that many factors influence these decisions and that his own role in them was less significant than many fans might think.

Following the news of MultiVersus's impending shutdown, some players expressed their frustration over the inability to use their in-game tokens to unlock new characters, a feature that was promised to those who invested in the $100 edition of the game. This issue may have been a catalyst for the threats directed at the developers, highlighting the deep emotional investment and subsequent disappointment felt by the community.
