Warner Bros. Games' MultiVersus is set to shut down its servers, joining other disappointing titles. The UK government recently dismissed a petition seeking updated consumer protections that would prevent game publishers from taking games offline without giving players a chance to retain their purchases. Existing laws are considered adequate, and the government insists that software providers must be clear about the support available for their products. After the server shutdown, MultiVersus will still provide local co-op play post-update, but will not support online matches or be available for purchase.
The UK government responds to a petition for updated consumer laws regarding game server shutdowns, stating they see no need for change as publishers are already covered by existing laws.
MultiVersus will still be accessible for local play after its servers shut down, unlike Concord, but online matches will be eliminated and the game delisted.
