Godzilla x Kong has just rumbled into cinemas, with early reactions calling it an absurdly fun ride – but when will the monster mash hit streaming services? It’s a fair question. After all, the previous MonsterVerse entry, Godzilla vs. Kong, released in cinemas and on streaming simultaneously.
MultiVersus return date confirmed: When will it come back to life?
11.03.2024 - 18:47 / radiotimes.com / Will
The return date for MultiVersus has been confirmed!
This doesn't come as a massive surprise, after the Warner Bros game's social media accounts lurched back to life last week.
In case you're not familiar, MultiVersus is a Super Smash Bros-like multiplayer game that sees iconic Warner Bros-owned characters — from Batman to Shaggy from Scooby Doo — battling it out in brightly-coloured arenas.
The official press materials tell us that MultiVersus, which previously had a lengthy early access period, will return «with a new PVE mode, more heroes and personalities added to the roster, additional stages based on reimagined universes and environments, first-class online play, improved visuals and much more».
Check out the key details below as we all get ready to have the wacky fun of MultiVersus back in our lives!
The MultiVersus return date is 28th May 2024, the publishers from Warner Bros have confirmed.
As for platforms, we're told that MultiVersus «will be available as a free download» on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and PC (via Steam and Epic Games Store).
The press release also promises that MultiVersus will have «full cross-play and cross-progression support» when it returns in May.
Previously, the MultiVersus social media account on X (formerly Twitter) curiously sprung into action — after an almost nine-month-long absence since the closure of the online open beta.
Knowing it’s been a hot minute since we last heard anything from MultiVersus, the tweet was rather coy, but it was more than enough for players desperate to get back into the game — the post has garnered 38,000 likes and counting.
It was quite an odd call for developers Player First Games to close the open beta in the first place, as players could purchase skins and battle passes – something typically relegated to full releases.
Players could still engage in offline play at least, but it was limited to local play or test matches. It's nice to have the return date confirmed now!
Warner Bros also has a pretty troubled recent past with live-service games, as evidenced by the launch of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, which we think is fair to describe as «not ideal».
That being said, Warner Bros is clearly a fan of the live-service model (meaning games that get updated regularly with new seasonal content for a long time after launch).
One of the company's key execs recently admitted that they would love to see a live-service Harry Potter/Hogwarts Legacy game in future.

When will Apple launch a foldable iPhone? You may not like what Apple has in store
For years, Apple has been rumoured to be working on a foldable iPhone in a bid to take on the likes of Samsung, Google and now OnePlus in the foldable smartphone market. However, it is still playing catchup, and it is likely to be doing so in the near future. A new report suggests that the plans for a foldable iPhone have run into snags and the proposed device could be delayed or even killed off, which could potentially be a big blow as the company aims to retain its crown as the top smartphone maker of the year, a feat it achieved last year by leaving Samsung behind.

When will Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth be on PC?
PlayStation 5 players have been raving about the second part of the FF7 remake project Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. As with the first part, it was made clear well in advance that this game would be a PlayStation exclusive at launch, however, we did eventually get Remake of the first part on PC around a year later. This gives PC players hope that the same treatment will be given to Rebirth, but the big question becomes how long will we have to wait this time? Is it possible to see it come to PC storefronts faster than its prequel, or will we need to bide our time avoiding spoilers for months on end? Here’s our best estimate as to when you can expect to see Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth on PC.

Tomorrow, The Finals Season 2 begins and it brings new weapons and gadgets, another battle pass, a new map, and the Power Shift mode with it. Although I dropped from off playing The Finals a few weeks after its release, my early taste of Season 2’s new content was more than enticing enough to draw me back in.
