Invincible VS reveals brand new, original fighter not from the Amazon Show

Based on the successful comic series and Amazon's animated adaptation, Invincible VS is a 3v3 tag fighting game that just revealed a new character on The Game Awards 2025. This new fighter announcement was one of many stunning reveals at The Game Awards 2025, a show that included two Star Wars announcements, two Tomb Raider reveals, and a tease for Larian Studios' next game.

First announced during the Xbox Showcase in June earlier this year, Invincible VS is the first project from developer Quarter Up, a team founded by several developers who worked on 2013's Killer Instinct. As Skybound Games' first in-house studio, Quarter Up has been given full access to Invincible license, and has even been able to get actors like Steven Yeun and JK Simmons to reprise their roles from the Amazon show.

Invincible VS introduces the original character Ella Mental

Announced about two-thirds of the way through The Game Awards 2025, Invincible VS adds new hero Ella Mental to its roster. After a short introduction from the co-creator of Invincible, Robert Kirkman, Ella Mental got a full minute to shine in a gameplay trailer. As her hero name suggests, Ella Mental's moveset utilizes all of Earth's natural elements, including fire-infused punches, icy shocks, and an ultimate attack that traps opponents in a water bubble and crushes them with giant rocks.

Unlike the rest of the Invincible VS' ever-growing list, Ella Mental did not come from Invincible Amazon show or the original series from Kirkman. Instead, Ella Mental is a completely original character created by Robert Kirkman, Ryan Ottley and Cory Walker solely for Invincible VS. Ella Mental's character reveal trailer also confirmed that Grammy-nominated, Philadelphia-based rapper Tierra Whack will voice the new hero.
