fan-favorite characters that Invincible fans can battle as or against in the
game at launch, this ruthless “Viltrumite” was revealed in a new Conquest
Gameplay Trailer, as well as via a towering statue at the Evo Awards. The 6’8”
Conquest statue thawed from within 3,500 pounds of ice and blood as fans
witnessed the spectacle during a global Evo Awards livestream.

that in the upcoming Invincible VS Open Beta, running April 9th through April

millions of global Invincible fans, as well as the millions within the global
fighting game community has been and will continue to be integral to the success
of Invincible VS. The Skybound Entertainment and Quarter Up teams have done an
