Player First Games has announced that MultiVersus Season 5 will be the final chapter for the Warner Bros. platform fighting game, concluding on May 30, 2025, at 9 a.m. PST. The studio shared this news through a blog post on their website, marking the end of the crossover brawler that debuted on May 28 of the previous year. Season 5 kicks off next week on February 4 and will run until the game's closure in May 2025, after which online play will cease. However, Player First Games assures players that all earned and purchased content will remain accessible offline through local gameplay and training modes.

"Most importantly, we want to thank every player and person who has ever played or supported MultiVersus," expressed the MultiVersus team in their message. "All of us on the Player First Games and Warner Bros. Games teams have poured our heart and soul into this game. We will be forever grateful for the incredible support of the MultiVersus community throughout this journey."

Player First Games has also announced that real-money transactions for MultiVersus are no longer available as of today, though players can still use Gleamium and character tokens to access in-game content until the end of support on May 30. At that time, MultiVersus will be removed from the PlayStation Store, Microsoft Store, Steam, and Epic Games Store.

The closure of MultiVersus comes in the wake of it being labeled a significant disappointment for Warner Bros. Discovery. During a financial call in November, the company revealed that MultiVersus had underperformed, leading to a $100 million writedown in their games sector. This added to a total of $300 million in writedowns following the launch of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League in January. Additionally, Warner Bros. Games head David Haddad is set to depart the company after a challenging 2024, as reported by Variety last week.

"We took another $100 million plus impairment due to the underperforming releases, primarily MultiVersus this quarter, bringing total writedown year-to-date to over $300 million in our games business, a key factor in this year’s studio profit decline," stated Gunnar Wiedenfels, chief financial officer, during the November call.

Despite the game shutting down just days after its one-year anniversary, Season 5 promises to end on a high note. Alongside the usual seasonal updates, new characters Lola Bunny and Aquaman will join the fray. Lola Bunny, the Looney Toons icon, can be unlocked as a daily calendar reward, while Aquaman, the DC superhero, will be available through the battle pass starting next week.
