Multiversus fans are expressing frustration with the recent announcement that there will be no refunds for players who spent money on the game throughout the open beta, as the game prepares to go dark in June. Despite the disappointment, the developers at Player First Games have confirmed that all progress and previously earned or purchased content will carry over when the game returns in early 2024.
The news was confirmed on the official Multiversus website, under the FAQ page, where the question “Will refunds be available for previously purchased content?” was met with the response, “Additionally, refunds are not available as a result of the Open Beta closure.”
Fans have taken to social media to express their discontent, with some calling the decision “stupid” and others demanding refunds. Many were surprised by the decision, particularly given the game’s upcoming extended offline period.
Multiversus is a free-to-play crossover fighting game developed by Player First Games and published by Warner Bros. Games for multiple platforms. The game features characters from popular Warner Bros. Entertainment franchises and is set for a full launch in early 2024.
Tony Huynh, co-founder, and game director at Player First Games has described the open beta as an important learning opportunity for the development team, providing a stepping stone to the next phase of MultiVersus.
As the game prepares to go dark, fans will be left waiting eagerly for its return in 2024, with hopes that the extended offline period will bring further improvements and refinements to the game. For now, however, it seems that those who spent money on the game during the open beta will have to wait patiently for its return, with no refunds currently available.
