To the UniVersus Community,

Today, we’re sharing an important update about the future of UniVersus. The game will be moving to a new home at Boss Stage.

This is a bittersweet moment for everyone at UVS Games. UniVersus has been a defining part of who we are, and this decision comes with a great deal of emotion. But above all, we want what is best for the game, the people who have dedicated themselves to building it, and the community that has supported it for more than two decades.

We’re confident this next chapter will provide a strong foundation for UniVersus to continue growing, supported by a team committed to its future.

First, we want to share something important: the core UniVersus team will continue developing the game under Boss Stage. The people who have helped shape UniVersus, who know its history, and care deeply about its future will continue to be the ones bringing it to life.

Why Are We Making This Change?

UniVersus has always been more than cards on the table. It’s the friendships made across the table, the rivalries built over years of competition, the local game stores that have become gathering places, and the players who kept showing up, set after set, year after year.

For UVS Games, UniVersus has been our foundation. It helped us build our team, establish relationships with incredible IP partners, and grow into the company we are today. We’re proud of what we’ve accomplished together, and none of it would have been possible without everyone who supported the game along the way.

As UVS Games has grown, so have the demands and responsibilities of our business. That growth has led us to take a closer look at how we can best support the long-term future of each of our games.

Throughout that process, our priority was finding the best path forward for UniVersus, its team, and the community that has supported it for so many years. We’re proud of what the team is building and we wanted to give that work and the people behind it the best opportunity to succeed.

Why Boss Stage?

Finding the right home for UniVersus meant finding people who understand what the game means to its community and who value the experience of the team behind it.

We spoke with several interested publishers and industry partners throughout this process. Ultimately, Boss Stage stood out because of the people behind it, their connection to UniVersus, and their commitment to keeping the core team together.

That commitment was especially important to us. These are people who have invested years of their lives into the game and the community around it. Their passion and relationships with players are an important part of what makes UniVersus what it is today.

Boss Stage shares that appreciation and is committed to supporting the game’s future.

What Happens Next?

The UniVersus team will continue its work under Boss Stage. We understand that this change brings questions, particularly for players and local game stores, and we’ll share additional details about the transition as they become available.

But before we close, there’s something we want to say to this community.

Thank you.

To every player who has sat down for their first match, every competitor who has traveled to an event, every local game store that has made space for UniVersus, and every person who introduced a friend to the game with their favorite characters: thank you.

To the UniVersus team, past and present: thank you for the work, creativity, and passion you’ve put into this game and its community.

It’s been a privilege to be a part of your story, and we’ll be cheering you on as you write what comes next.

—The UVS Games Team
