How MultiVersus Dying (accidentally) Saved The Game

Multiversus just released a new trailer announcement with news that it is going to be releasing soon with new gameplay, updates and add ons in 2024. Multiversus launching with all new characters in the game is something for the community to be excited about. Combined with their Multiversus McDonald's collab it's safe to say the game is set up for a great revival after dying. This is How Multiversus Dying Actually Revived the Game

i was there when the game started with the twitch drops, i grinded so many streams to get it, and when i did i played that thing non stop, i got so good at the game that i maxed 4 characters, and whenever my friends played against me they had to balance the teams because my arya stark was too menacing, i REALLY hope i can get them back into it when the full game releases

[@notanerd6838]

The big problem was the Netcode. It made the game awful to play when you'd feel so accomplished hitting huge ass combos just to find out your version was wrong and in reality you just got hit for 60% by the opponent. The rubberbanding was awful. You'd often find yourself teleporting into the blast zone when on your screen you were still very much on stage literally milliseconds before. It was awful.

I dont think that had any to do with it. It just slowly died and they didn't deliever enough content to keep ppl enganged. They did eventually add more but it was way to late at that point. But i doubt ppl wouldn't try it again when it releases for real this time. The beta was fun for most people.

[@pebisgaming]

Yeah i think they were updating the game slow because the team was busy recreating the entire game on unreal 5 💀

[@Obad87]

I think you're wrong about it not making a lot of money. It seems the reason they stopped updating the game is because they were already in process of switching to unreal engine 5 and knew they would have to end the beta and start from scratch. The fact they switched engines like that and got such a drastic change so quickly is because of it's great success and potential and warner brothers saw that and likely offered them assistance to upgrade everything and do better. WB is desperate for a live service game that sticks so I wouldn't be surprised after seeing it's initial great success they decided to invest even further into the game to make it really good.

[@gligarguy4010]

Not many games get a second chance, so this game better not squander it.

You didn't mention that multiversus was the biggest selling game of july 2022 reported by NPD (not biggest amount of downloads, but revenue from micro-transactions and founders packs). So it was actually very successful at launch, it just didn't carry that through. I also suspect the planned the shutdown/overhaul back in or before November when the last character came out but just didn't announce it til march.

THIS is how you handle a game!

[@robonthecob6920]

I love the concept behind Multiversus, and the gameplay and content has been extremely enjoyable so far. But the biggest problem I have with it is that fact that it's "free." It would've been so much better as a full game, a comprehensive single player mode, a story campaign, shinier presentation, and everything being reasonably unlockable. Instead, it's basically just "pay to unlock" trash, and it's insufferable. They market how you can play as all these different WB fighters, but in reality each person would only be playing as a few because it's so hard to unlock other fighters and costumes without paying extra. It's essentially a glorified mobile game. Anyone saying that this is "solid competition" to Smash is delusional. It could've been, but currently it isn't even close to Smash's level in literally any way.

[@DrSeniorMilminaman]

Multiversus had potential, and it still somewhat does, but them shutting down the game at all really hurt them. especially with the people that paid for the more expensive versions. I think they only made the fight for its popularity and sticking power to be a much, much bigger and steeper mountain to climb. Aside from updates with characters and maps, they would need to change a number of things. I couldn't even tell you what, now since I haven't touched the game in way too long, but that feeling of not being given enough really sticks and is what I feel when I think about the game.

[@mishakolts]

I hope it will come back strong, I bought an expensive beta-exclusive pack thinking the game would blow up wich is why I was disappointed when everyone forgot about it. Cool Video!

[@AvatarOA]

the reason people weren't spending money on in-game purchases is because the monetisation was horrendous and greedy

[@kylespevak6781]

The game was handled so poorly. Devs up and disappeared with no notice then came back to shut the game down. Now, their new announcement of coming back doesn't show anything new. It's like they're trying to make the game fail. How there's still good faith towards them, idk

[@CaptPierce]

You know I didn’t realize that there was so much hype around it before it released, I watched the trailers and game play the moment they released and in my opinion I thought the game looked awful, it looks like a half baked fighting game that the only thing it had going for it is that Batman and Shaggy could fight each other, and I still think that the game doesn’t look good or seem fun to me
