Battle Beast Unleashed! 'Invincible Vs' Tag Fighter Adds Furry Fury Ahead of EVO Demo

Eurogamer reports that 'Invincible Vs,' the upcoming tag fighter, has revealed Battle Beast as its sixth playable character, showing off gameplay ahead of a public demo at EVO. The game is shaping up nicely, blending talent from Killer Instinct with a popular IP – let's hope it delivers on its promise!

Right, so the hype train for 'Invincible Vs' is chugging along nicely, and the latest reveal? It's a big, furry smackdown machine named Battle Beast. Eurogamer broke the news – and honestly, I'm here for it.

For those not in the know (where *have* you been?), 'Invincible Vs' is a 3v3 tag fighter based on the ridiculously popular comic book series and the Amazon animated show. Think Marvel vs. Capcom but with more…invincible folks. The gameplay trailer, unleashed (get it?) on social media, shows Battle Beast tearing it up with some brutal combos and a finisher that’s, shall we say, *viscerally* satisfying. Lovely stuff, indeed.

Now, what’s got me properly curious is the team behind this rumble-fest. Quarter Up, the developer, is a mix of veterans from the legendary 'Killer Instinct 2013' and fresh blood. That blend of experience and new ideas? That's where the magic happens, mate. It's like mixing an old wizard's potions with a young apprentice's experimental brews – you might get something truly spectacular (or accidentally summon a particularly grumpy demon, but hey, that's gaming).

We first saw 'Invincible Vs' at the Xbox Games Showcase back in June, and Quarter Up has been teasing us with developer vlogs ever since. They're clearly putting their hearts (and probably a fair bit of blood and sweat) into this one. The potential here is massive. We're talking a popular IP, a talented team, and the revival of the tag fighter genre, all rolled into one. It's like finding a legendary weapon in a dusty old chest – exciting, but you’ve got to be careful how you wield it.

Speaking of wielding things, Battle Beast's weapon of choice is a massive mace. He looks like he could give even the toughest 'Invincible' characters a proper headache. Attendees at EVO in Vegas next month will get to go hands-on with the game, and believe me, that's an experience I will be waiting for to hear about.

Six characters have been revealed so far. It's all looking promising. So, who else do you reckon should join the brawl? My personal pick? Atom Eve. But honestly, as long as the core gameplay is solid and the combos are satisfying, I'm ready to be thoroughly beaten by a furry lion man. Bring it on!
