We don't know. Multiplayer has been delayed an unknown amount of time. The developers have said they will provide a revised roadmap "soon". Between you and me, "soon" likely means after the Steam Summer Sale event has completed and the current inaccurate roadmap has misled more multiplayer fans into purchasing the game. No argument will convince me that the developers had time to create a trailer for the Crucible update but couldn't spare a few minutes to write a post with details on their revised roadmap.

As for the delay, unfortunately people complained about the the current state of the Crucible, which was just put in as a placeholder end-game activity until it could be fleshed out much later in the development schedule. Regardless, some players unrealistically expected to get hundreds of hours of content out of that system and a game that had been in early access for a handful of weeks.

To address these complaints the developers have opted to push work on the Crucible to the front of the schedule, and the multiplayer update which was advertised as being the next (first) major update to release has been pushed back to some unknown date.

Anyway, I would check in after the Steam Summer Sale for that revised roadmap, which may give us an idea. I don't think we'll be seeing the new roadmap before then. I would be moderately thrilled to be proven wrong, although let's be honest.. they knew about the roadmap change since at least May, and it's July now, so even if it were updated today it's much later than it should have been.
