MultiVersus Has Popped Back Up On The Epic Games Store

MultiVersus has popped back up in the "Free Games" section of the Epic Games Store, which supports the rumours and fan theories that it could be re-revealed at some point this month.

Every month of 2024 so far has had MultiVersus fans hoping that a re-reveal or announcement was going to happen, especially since we were promised news "in the coming months" back in December.

To play devil's advocate and pour some water on the hype, it's worth noting that it's not actually that clear when the Epic Games Store started showing MultiVersus again. One comment claims that it's been there for a while but it's hard to verify since trying to use the Wayback Machine isn't helpful here since you just get
