Why is Rumbleverse shutting down?

Rumbleverse was an ambitious battle royal brawler by Epic Games and Iron Galaxy. It saw players duking it out fist-to-fist and body-slamming one another. Unfortunately for fans, an announcement has been made that Rumbleverse is shutting down. This may leave you wondering why Rumbleverse is ending and how long it lasted.

Rumbleverse is shutting down on February 28, 2023, meaning its servers will no longer be active, and players will no longer be able to play the game. The primary reason for this is that Rumbleverse failed to gain the traction and momentum that the developer and publisher anticipated. All players who spent money in the shop are eligible for a refund.
