Omni-Man in Invincible VS: First Gameplay and a Roster That’s (Almost) Too Big
Omni-Man in Invincible VS is the kind of no-brainer that makes you wonder if the devs are reading minds, or maybe just Twitter. When you think of Invincible, you probably think of three things: Mark getting his ass kicked, flying guts, and Omni-Man looking disappointed in everyone. Good news — the latter is officially playable in Invincible VS, the universe-bending, 3v3 tag fighter coming soon-ish to make your controllers sticky with cartoon blood.
Why Omni-Man in Invincible VS Changes the Game
Let’s recap: Omni-Man, the Viltrumite menace and part-time PTA terror, is entering Invincible VS. Reveal dropped at EVO, because of course fighting game royalty is required. He joins a cast including Invincible, Atom Eve, Thula, Bulletproof, Rex Splode (who definitely did not pick that name himself), and the already-beloved Battle Beast. In short: if you like watching people get curb-stomped at supersonic speeds, start rubbing your hands together now.
But Wait, Omni-Man Has Done This Before
You thought this was his first rodeo? Please. Omni-Man already stole headlines in Mortal Kombat 1 as a guest character — fatality-punching heads clean off and making even Scorpion reconsider his life choices. The guy was born for fighting games. Now he’s home, with a few less decapitations (maybe).
How Does He Play? Expect Speed and Pain
- Powerhouse Grapples: Omni-Man’s kit is tailor-made for players who want to grab, smash, and regret nothing. He’s the big bad for a reason.
- Teleport Uppercuts: If you’re not ready for someone to disappear and reappear behind you, holding your spleen, now’s the time to practice dodging.
- Signature Smugness: The only thing sharper than his attacks is his iconic ‘I’m-not-angry-just-disappointed’ glare. Expect in-game taunts.
The EVO preview didn’t show every move, but trust me, he won’t play like a glass cannon. This guy is more like a glass meteor.
An Invincible VS Roster So Big, It’s…Ridiculous?
Robert Kirkman (creator, king of spoilers, all-around hype man) told fans at SDCC 2025 there’s a “99% chance” your favorite Invincible character is making the cut. That’s right. Ninja Turtles, take note: this is how you stuff a roster.
If you want to see everyone from the comics and the Prime Video show — good news, you probably will. Dream hard enough and even minor characters might show up just to get splattered on the floor. There’s real passion behind this, too. Kirkman promises the lineup will be “absolutely insane,” and I, for one, welcome our new Viltrumite overlord main.
Release Timing: “Sooner Than You May Think…But Next Year”
Translation: Invincible VS is probably hitting in 2026, but game developers hate commitment, so keep those hype meters at medium. After all, we’ve seen enough delays this decade to last a lifetime. If you like speculating about release windows — or you’re hunting for the best gaming deals in the meantime — there’s plenty to distract you.
What Do You Want Next?
If you’re dreaming about playable Allen the Alien, or that guy who exploded in episode two, let loose in the comments. Oh, and if you’re the type who likes your games with brain-busting navigation logic, go see how Astra’s robot navigation cracked the labyrinth — because if Omni-Man can fly, maybe your Roomba can learn too.
The end result? Omni-Man in Invincible VS isn’t just cool, it’s required gaming. More character reveals (and probably more blood) are coming soon. And if that’s not enough to hype you, maybe try another universe.
