MultiVersus is set to go offline on May 30, 2025. This free-to-play fighting game, despite its promising start, failed to secure a robust player base, resulting in a significant financial loss for Warner Bros., estimated at over $100 million by late 2024. After this date, while online features will cease, players can continue enjoying the game offline in both single-player and cooperative modes.
Amidst swirling rumors about its longevity, MultiVersus, which officially launched on May 28, 2024, will conclude its online journey by the end of its upcoming season. This game brought together beloved characters from various Warner Bros. universes, such as DC and Looney Tunes, offering fans an exciting mix of personalities in a fight setting. The playfield for live-service games has proven to be particularly challenging, as evidenced by the struggles of other big-name titles like XDefiant. Unfortunately, MultiVersus, despite initial strong engagement during its early access debut in July 2022 and around its official release, couldn’t keep the momentum going. This decline led Warner Bros. to decide it’s time to close the curtains on this ambitious venture.
According to an announcement on the game’s official website, the game’s online servers will shut down after Season 5 concludes on May 30, 2025, at 9 AM PST / 12 PM EST. In the lead-up to this, the game will be withdrawn from digital stores across PC and consoles. Warner Bros. Games explained that their decision followed “careful consideration.” After January 31, players will no longer be able to make purchases with real money, although existing Gleamium balance or character tokens can still be used until the season’s end.
Despite the online closure, there’s a silver lining for fans. As per Warner Bros. Games’ latest update, MultiVersus will remain accessible offline post-May 30. Players can continue to battle AI or dive into co-op matches with friends. To ensure access to the offline mode, players need to download the latest game version and log in at least once during Season 5, which kicks off on February 4 at 9 AM PST / 12 PM EST.
As MultiVersus approaches its conclusion, fans are gearing up for the final chapter, Season 5, which is set to launch next week. This update promises exciting new rewards, including Aquaman and Lola Bunny, available for Battle Pass holders and daily login bonuses. Given the game’s eventual transition to offline mode, now might be the perfect opportunity for players to secure this title to enjoy in the times ahead.
### MultiVersus: What You Need to Know
As MultiVersus prepares for its offline future, it’s worth reflecting on what made the game stand out. It offered a diverse roster that included iconic characters like Bugs Bunny, Batman, Arya Stark, and Rick Sanchez, each bringing their distinct moves and styles to the battlefield. The game’s maps, featuring locations such as the Bat Cave and Game of Thrones’ Throne Room, turned battles into epic spectacles. It also provided various modes, from intense 1v1 duels to chaotic 4-player free-for-alls, catering to different playstyles. And with full cross-platform support, players could enjoy seamless gaming experiences across all platforms. Despite its impending closure, fans of MultiVersus can still appreciate the game’s creativity and dynamic gameplay—offline.
