Publisher Skybound Games announced that a new fighting game based on Robert Kirkman's Invincible is on the way during yesterday's Xbox Showcase event, and this looks to be every bit as brutal and bloody as the comic book and animated series it's inspired by.

Invincible VS is a superhero 3v3 tag fighting game set in the Invincible universe, which allows players to battle to the death as a team of fan-favorite characters in iconic locations. Playable characters include Mark Grayson (Invincible), Atom Eve, Thula, Bulletproof, and Omni Man.

Unleash bone-breaking combos through fast combat and smart defensive tactics to leave a trail of blood and destruction. Land vicious Super moves and Ultimates to leave your opponents in a mess of blood.

The game will "offer players a variety of dynamic game modes that raise the stakes with every battle. Whether diving into a captivating single player story, climbing the ranks in a competitive and casual multiplayer Versus mode, unlocking character arcs in Arcade or mastering devastating combos in Training, players will experience unparalleled heroic brutality, where every earth-shattering blow will leave them feeling…Invincible."

“I have said this before, and I’ll say it again: this is the most excited I’ve been about anything involving Invincible,” said Kirkman. “Invincible VS is crazy fun, fast, ferocious and dripping with the same over-the-top brutality that you’ll see in the comic book pages and on the show. It is a natural evolution of the franchise and it is everything that fans have been demanding for over a decade! This is without a doubt, probably the best superhero fighting game in the universe!”

“As huge fans of the franchise, it was an honor to work with Robert, as well as the comic book and TV series teams, to create the most authentic Invincible experience for players,” added Mike Willette, Executive Producer of Invincible VS. “In Invincible VS, every move, every line of dialogue, every broken limb and bloodied mouth carries real cost and consequence – all building toward the bone-deep satisfaction of victory. No tag fighting game has ever delivered this level of intensity and violence. This game is a love letter to the fighting game community, created by a team of passionate, experienced fans of the genre.”

As for whether the game's story will be based on a specific arc from the comic or lean more towards what we saw in the Prime Video animated series, art director Dan Eder suggests that it will draw inspiration from both while mixing things up a little.

"We don't want this to feel detached from the source material," Eder tells IGN. "If anything, I think there's a lot we can kind of use from his knowledge and find ways to mix it up. We don't want to just kind retread old ground like, 'Hey, we did this in the show, let's do this one-to-one in the game!' I think that can get a little bit boring. Instead, we're always looking at ways to elevate it. And Robert is a very core part of that conversation, because who knows these characters better than him and Ryan Ottley and Corey Walker and the other creators?"

Invincible VS is set to launch in 2026 on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC.

@Irregular - Marvel Tokon leaves me with only one conclusion , injustice 3 will be injustice\DC vs capcom. i cant see capcom still having marvel rights after the Tokon reveal.

@supermanrex - I mean they just let Capcom re-release MvC 1 & 2, along with other titles that are Marvel related. So it is possible we could get another MvC.

I remember during MK11's release, Ed Boon admitted that he did speak to Marvel about a new game but couldn't elaborate what they talked about. It is highly likely that Marvel Games was looking to have some type of fighting game without the use of another license. But I'm sure during that meeting at the time, Ed Boon possibly pitched that he wanted to make Marvel vs DC and Marvel later on said no.

However, given that Deadpool & Batman is becoming a new comic cross-over, I bet we might see ONE Marvel character appear as DLC in Injustice 3.

And it's possible given WB Games relationship with Marvel Games is still good given the Lego Marvel games that came out in the past.

@Irregular - it would be highly strange if we had two marvel vs type games out, sure they would probably have some style differences but in effect it would be the same game. the re-releases i see as maybe a compilation bookend to the mvc era. maybe they worked out a contract with capcom to be able to re-release classics but the new stuff is licensed to Sony who probably ponied up more money than capcom. capcom knows there is a thirst with their fans for a new vs title and i dont see them waiting this release window out, they going to announce something soon and i bet at EVO this summer. i bet its either dc vs capcom, or a new capcom vs snk title.

@SteviesRightFoo - Mortal Kombat was never 3v3 sooo....idk how that makes sense.

Looks more like a very violent MvC3, without Capcom or Marvel fighters.

@Irregular - in terms of the ultra violent shtick

Like with that Predator show, trying to pass off an unfinished animatic as the animations "style" is lazy, cheap and dirty.

I was hoping this would be a 3d fighter with big, destructable environments. Seems like a waste putting these characters in a 2D game.
