The first major game developed by Skybound’s first in-house gaming studio set in Invincible universe, Invincible VS features fan-favorite superheroes - Mark Grayson (Invincible), Atom Eve, Thula, Bulletproof and more - iconic locations, an original story from the creative team behind the smash-hit adult animated television series, visceral bloody combat and an authentic depiction of the destruction and mayhem that captures the chaos and heart that franchise fans know and love.

Based on Skybound’s acclaimed comic book series by Robert Kirkman, Cory Walker and Ryan Ottley - which had a 15-year run at Image Comics and a historic 146 issues - Invincible VS delivers a one-of-a-kind blend of superhero spectacle and brutal combat. Players will harness explosive powers and unleash bone-breaking combos through fast tag-team mechanics and strategic defensive play. With every vicious Super and Ultimate move, players will deal more damage to their opponents and leave the arenas in a mess of blood. 

Invincible VS 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. 

Developer Quarter Up revealed that fan-favorite character Allen the Alien is the newest addition to the confirmed roster of fighters in Invincible VS.

Quarter Up also announced Invincible VS’s Open Beta, set to launch on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 on April 9.

Fans at South by Southwest (SXSW) 2026 can get early hands-on access to Allen and the playable Open Beta roster at an exclusive arcade pop-up.

Born in a Unopan breeding facility, Allen the Alien was the sole success in a mission to create a warrior strong enough to face the all-powerful Viltrumite race. Despite the weight of his origins, Allen is quite the jokester, cracking quippy one-liners in between punches. Through his service to the Coalition of Planets, he has proven himself one of Invincible’s greatest allies in the fight against the Empire. And even when enemies think Allen is near death, he always seems to come back stronger than before.

In Invincible VS, Allen is an immensely powerful “Striker” fighter, using his mobility, superhuman strength and grappling ability to downright beat up anyone who stands in his way. He keeps opponents on their heels with his incredible Unopan strength, and excels in mix-up scenarios where he can bait fighters and hit them with his armored stance. Allen’s high-octane gameplay style can be tricky to master, but doing so will result in flashy, creative combos that leave any and all challengers in his wake.

“Allen the Alien is everyone’s favorite extraterrestrial,” said Mike Willette, Executive Producer of Invincible VS. “He’s a fan-favorite for a reason, and bringing him into Invincible VS was always a given. One second he’s cracking a funny joke, the next he’s absolutely demolishing you in combat — you never quite know what you’re going to get from the guy. We’re beyond excited to have him be playable at SXSW so fans can get an early look at his alien action.”

As the Invincible VS roster continues to expand, Allen the Alien arrives as one of the 18 playable characters available at launch. He joins a growing lineup of fan-favorite superheroes, including Mark Grayson (Invincible), Thula, Bulletproof, Atom Eve, Rex Splode, Omni-Man, Battle Beast, Cecil Stedman, Robot, Monster Girl, Anissa, Lucan, Powerplex, Dupli-Kate and Invincible VS’s first new original character, Ella Mental.

“Allen is an important piece of the Invincible puzzle and he’s going to be having a huge spring between season four of the animated series and Invincible VS,” said Robert Kirkman, co-creator of Invincible. “He’s got the jokes, but he backs up his sharp wit with even sharper hits and leaves opponents looking like the punchline. We’re really excited to see what players can do with him in our Open Beta soon.” 

Invincible VS is coming to Xbox Series X|S, PS5, and PC (Steam) on April 30, 2026.
