MultiVersus Returns to Steam Following Nearly a Year Offline

May 29, 2024 by Carley Garcia

Reception has been somewhat positive.

Following its early access and open beta releases from July 2022 to June 2023, MultiVersus disappeared for some much-needed fine-tuning. Nearly one year later, the title has officially launched, pulling in 114,515 concurrent players on Steam. This is a decent showing, but unfortunately, it still misses the mark–the game saw over 153,000 concurrent players on Steam at its peak.

A new launch trailer for the game was released earlier this month, teasing The Joker, Jason from Friday the 13th, Banana Guard from Adventure Time, and Agent Smith from The Matrix. Some of these characters had previously been datamined, something that has proven incredibly easy for players to do. In an interview with VGC, MultiVersus director Tony Huynh gave his thoughts on the issue.

“I can’t promise that there won’t ever be leaks or anything like that. But on our end, we’ve done, I think, above and beyond what industry standards and protections there are,” Huynh said. “It is an arms race, so it’ll be constant protections against new and creative ways to datamine. At the end of the day, we’ve done a lot, we’ve learned a lot, but again, it is an arms race.”

The game’s second season was an absolute disaster, but the team behind the wacky title are hoping that things will be different going forward.

“We want to deliver a great online experience, and to do that we had to rebuild everything from the ground up for our new netcode. Now we have absolute world-class netcode, so you can play with your friends seamlessly across the country and it feels like you’re offline.’

MultiVersus is available on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
