Licensed fighting games always have a built-in advantage when the source material already thrives on explosive action, and Invincible is a perfect fit. The series is brutal, fast, and packed with larger-than-life characters who feel tailor-made for a fighting game roster. Omni-Man already made a strong impression on fighting game fans through Mortal Kombat 1, so Invincible VS feels like the natural next step for the franchise in video game form.
When does Invincible VS release?
Luckily, the wait is almost over. Invincible VS is set to release on April 30th, so fans do not have much longer to wait before jumping in.
What platforms will Invincible VS be available on?
Invincible VS will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. That gives it a pretty solid spread across current platforms and should make it easy for most fighting game fans to get in on day one.
Is there an open beta for Invincible VS?
Yes, and if you have been curious to see how the game feels before launch, this is the perfect chance to try it out. The open beta runs until April 11th, so there is only a short window to check it out before it disappears and players have to wait for the full launch on April 30th.
What is the gameplay like for Invincible VS?
Invincible VS is a classic arcade-style fighting game with a 3v3 team-based format. If you are a fan of fighters like Marvel vs. Capcom, this will probably be the comparison that comes to mind first. Personally, that is one of the things that makes this game immediately more exciting to me. I have always liked team-based fighting games because they tend to feel more chaotic, more strategic, and just more fun once you really start learning different character combinations.
That style also feels right for Invincible. The series has so many memorable heroes and villains that a 3v3 setup gives the roster more room to shine instead of limiting players to just one favorite character at a time.
What characters will be in Invincible VS?
At launch, Invincible VS will feature 18 playable characters, which is a pretty strong starting point. The launch roster includes:
Invincible
Atom Eve
Bulletproof
Thula
Rex Splode
Battle Beast
Omni-Man
Cecil
Monster Girl
Robot
Ella Mental
Anissa
Lucan
Powerplex
Dupli-Kate
Allen
Titan
Conquest
That is already a strong mix of major names and some characters that should make the roster feel a little more interesting than just a list of obvious picks.
There will also be four DLC characters released as part of the game’s post-launch support, with Universa and The Immortal already announced. Those DLC fighters are expected to release quarterly, which should help keep the game active after launch.
What are the different editions of Invincible VS?
Digitally, Invincible VS will have two editions.
The Standard Edition comes with just the base game, which is perfect for anyone who simply wants to jump in and play.
The Deluxe Edition includes the base game along with the Year 1 Character Pass, which covers all four planned DLC characters, plus Deluxe Cosmetics that include a Profile Card Background, Badge, Title, and Card Frame.
For players who already know they are going to stick with the game long-term, the Deluxe Edition definitely feels like the better value.
Is there a Collector’s Edition of Invincible VS?
Yes, and thankfully it sounds like the kind of Collector’s Edition that actually gives fans some fun extras to display. The Physical Collector’s Edition includes everything from the Deluxe Edition along with several physical items for collectors.
The Collector’s Edition includes a physical disc, Steelbook Case, 4 Character Cards, Printed Controller Layout Card, Invincible #1 Reprint, Dev-letter, Premium Packaging, and Keepsake Cards.
If you are a big Invincible fan, this looks like the version that is easiest to get excited about, especially because it includes some items that feel like they were made with actual fans in mind instead of just being thrown together.
How much is Invincible VS?
One of the nicest surprises here is that Invincible VS is actually priced pretty reasonably, especially compared to a lot of modern releases.
Here is the pricing breakdown by edition:
Standard Edition (Digital & Physical): $49.99
Deluxe Edition (Digital Only): $69.99
Collector’s Edition (Physical Only): $99.99
Seeing the Standard Edition come in at $49.99 makes this feel a lot more approachable. In a time where game prices continue to creep upward, that lower entry point could make it easier for more players to give the game a shot.
Final Thoughts
Invincible VS feels like one of those games that could really surprise people. The source material is a perfect match for the fighting game genre, the 3v3 format gives it a fun identity right away, and the roster already looks strong enough to catch the attention of both Invincible fans and fighting game players. I also think there is something really appealing about a licensed fighter that is not afraid to fully embrace what makes its world unique. Invincible has always been messy, violent, and dramatic in the best ways possible, and that energy could translate really well into a fast-paced team fighter.
At the very least, this feels like a game worth keeping an eye on. And if the gameplay delivers, Invincible VS could wind up being much more than just a fun licensed spin-off.
