Invincible Vs may pack a punch for fans of the show, but I wish it had more going on outside its tight versus mode
A new 3v3 tag-team fighting game called Invincible VS, developed by studio Quarter Up and published by Skybound Games, brings the violence-heavy world of the Invincible comic book series and Amazon Prime animated adaptation to competitive gameplay. The game features intense, gore-filled combat that faithfully represents the brutal themes central to the source material, with characters routinely launched through environments in explosive fashion.
Developed by Quarter Up—a newly founded studio headed by veterans from Double Helix Games, the team behind Killer Instinct’s revival—Invincible VS aims to deliver a fighting game experience comparable to Marvel vs. Capcom. The game’s art style, while distinct from the original comics and show, maintains visual inspiration from Robert Kirkman’s 2003 Image Comics series.
Early reviews from major gaming outlets offer mixed assessments. PC Gamer praises the tight versus mode and character roster but notes the game lacks substantial content outside of competitive play. Polygon acknowledges the visceral, blood-soaked combat effectively captures the show’s exploration of violence’s toll on characters and civilians, though criticizes the accompanying story mode as underwhelming. Push Square celebrates the online functionality and the long-overdue arrival of a proper Invincible game, highlighting that despite its derivative art style, the game successfully channels the spirit of the franchise.
The game launches on PlayStation 5 and PC, marking a significant entry point for Invincible fans seeking interactive engagement with the universe beyond the existing visual novel and idle game releases.
