Every Hit Counts in Brutal 3v3 Tag Fighting Game with Fan-Favorite Invincible™
Superheroes and Villains, Devastating Combos and a Brand-New Original Story

COPENHAGEN – April 30, 2026 – 5th Planet Games A/S (OAX: 5PG), the Danish video
game financing and publishing company, today shares Skybound Entertainment’s
announcement of the launch of Invincible VS™, a brutal, tournament-quality 3v3
tag fighting game that lets players become a superhero in the bloodiest fight in
the universe. From Skybound’s first in-house game development studio Quarter Up,
Invincible VS is now available worldwide for Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5 and
PC, including in console physical editions co-distributed by 5th Planet Games.
The Invincible VS launch trailer can be viewed here.

Invincible VS is the first major game set in the award-winning Invincible
universe. The game features 18 fan-favorite superheroes and villains alongside
iconic locations, visceral bloody combat and an authentic depiction of the
destruction and mayhem that captures the chaos and heart fans know and love. The
game’s tournament-caliber tag-team fighting experience reflects Quarter Up’s
commitment to hard-hitting combat and deep respect for the source material.

The game is based on Skybound’s acclaimed comic series by Robert Kirkman, Cory
Walker, and Ryan Ottley, which ran for fifteen years in collaboration with Image
Comics across a historic 146 issues. Since 2021, Invincible has aired as a
critically acclaimed adult animated television series and taken on a new life
with fans globally, streaming exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240
countries and territories. Extending the narrative for Invincible fans,
Invincible VS features an original story from the creative team behind the hit
animated series.

In a Skybound press release, Robert Kirkman, co-creator of Invincible,
commented: “Getting to be involved with Invincible VS has been wild in the best
way - seeing this world we’ve spent years building show up in a fighting game is
just surreal. I should also admit, I’m not exactly a pro at fighting games, so
if I can pick this up and have fun, anyone can. The team really captured the
chaos and personality of the universe, and the characters move, hit and
basically obliterate each other exactly how you’d hope. Fans are going to have a
blast finally getting to step in and do some of that damage themselves.”

Physical boxed editions of Invincible VS include a Standard Edition and
Collector’s Edition, both now available at select global retailers and comic
book shops. Co-financier and co-distributor of Invincible VS, 5th Planet Games
will benefit from the distribution of physical editions across the Nordic region
under its partnership agreement with Nordisk Interactive A/S; across Eastern
Europe in partnership with Glomerk SA; and across the Benelux region in
association with BIGBEN Interactive Belgium S.A.

Mark Stanger, CEO of 5th Planet Games, commented: “5th Planet's strategic
partnership with Skybound Entertainment first began in 2021 - though our
recognition of, and admiration for, the strength of the Invincible IP dates back
much further. At 5th Planet Games we're thrilled to support Skybound and Quarter
Up as they deliver this undeniably authentic, high-quality game experience to
fans around the world. Today’s launch marks a significant milestone for 5th
Planet Games and its shareholders.”
Invincible VS offers a variety of dynamic game modes that raise the stakes with
every battle. Whether unlocking unique character-specific lore in Arcade Mode,
mastering devastating combos in Training Mode, challenging friends and family in
Versus Mode or experiencing a captivating narrative in Story Mode, players will
enjoy unparalleled heroic brutality, where every earth-shattering blow will
leave them feeling…Invincible.

The game’s Story Mode acts as a bonus, playable episode of the show set between
later episodes of Season 3, featuring more than 25 minutes of original
cinematics produced by Skybound Animation, alongside Emmy award-winning
Cinematics Supervising Director Seung Eun Kim (Arcane, The Batman). Designed to
match the length and quality of a full Invincible episode, it gives players the
chance to dive deeper into the entire character roster, with completion
rewarding a variety of exclusive content to expand their play experience. The
Invincible VS Story Mode is written by Invincible TV show co-executive producer
and writer Helen Leigh and Invincible VS Narrative Director Mike Rogers in
collaboration with Invincible co-creator Robert Kirkman.

Invincible VS players will also receive four new characters through the game’s
Year 1 Character Pass. Joining the roster this Summer 2026 are Universa, an
energy-siphoning antagonist, and The Immortal, a veteran member of the Guardians
of the Globe. Details on the remaining two characters will be revealed in the
coming months.

In a Skybound press release, Mike Willette, Executive Producer of Invincible VS
commented: “We’ve worked hard to create Invincible VS, and as huge fans of
Invincible and fighting games alike here at Quarter Up, it’s incredibly
rewarding to finally share the game with players. Quarter Up was founded by
former members of the team behind Killer Instinct (2013), and we brought that
fighting game experience into building a competitive, high-impact 3v3 system.
Our focus was on capturing the authenticity, intensity, speed, brutality and
weight of the universe while making sure every match feels great to play.”
