The upcoming superhero fighting game, Invincible VS, will receive a substantial day-one patch addressing bugs, making core system improvements, and enhancing the overall experience. Developed by Quarter Up and published by Skybound Games, the 3v3 tag fighter is based on Robert Kirkman’s popular Invincible comic series and is slated for release on April 30, 2026. Players can expect traditional fighting game mechanics, a story mode, arcade and training options, and online multiplayer featuring a roster of 18 characters at launch.
In April, a beta test for Invincible VS let thousands of players try out the game and battle as popular characters like Omni-Man, Atom Eve, and Invincible. The developers at Quarter Up used feedback and data collected during the test to refine the game. As a result, several improvements will be included when Invincible VS officially launches, aiming to give players a better experience.
Invincible VS Day One Patch Announced Ahead of Launch
Quarter Up has announced a day-one patch for Invincible VS that will be applied as soon as the game releases. The update focuses on major system improvements, including adjustments to how damage is calculated. The developers are reducing the effectiveness of long, repeating attack combos. Specifically, the Heroic Strike move will now require more energy, and players won’t be able to immediately switch to a new fighter after winning a fight. All special moves – including Specials, Boosted Specials, and Supers – have been tweaked to be easier to counter when blocked. They’ve also made changes to throws, dash cancels, and aerial jumps.

This update for Invincible VS includes balance adjustments for all characters, including popular fighters like Allen the Alien and Omni-Man. It also fixes many bugs that players encountered during the open beta, resolving over 80% of crashes and eliminating issues like players appearing as ‘ghosts’ during matchmaking. The game’s interface has been improved to clearly show the connection type of other players (wired or Wi-Fi), and overall performance has been boosted. The developers are aware of some remaining problems, such as the lack of penalties for leaving competitive matches early, and plan to fix these in future updates.
It’s too soon to know exactly how the recent balance changes will affect gameplay in Invincible VS, but players on Reddit and Twitter are already discussing them. A lot of people felt the game previously favored overly safe strategies and allowed players to repeatedly use powerful combos, making fights feel clunky. They’re hopeful the updates will lead to more even and engaging matches. Some players are still disappointed that the game doesn’t include some of the strongest characters from the Invincible universe, such as Thragg.

Invincible VS Day One Patch Notes
Core Systems Changes
Damage Scaling
- We’ve done an overall pass on damage scaling to reduce the number of solo Touch of Death routes utilizing easy to perform/repeatable combos
Heroic Stike
- Heroic Strike now costs 1.5 bars of meter (previously 1 bar of meter)
Tagging
- You can no longer tag in a new Fighter immediately after killing an opponent
Wake Up
- Reduced window to breakout of recovery to address concerns with quick getup occurring too often.
Punishable Pass
- We’ve done a pass on every Fighter’s Special, Boosted Special, and Super moves that will, for the most part, make them unsafe on block and more open to punish
Throws
- Adjusted interactions on throws, so that being interrupted should now reset to neutral
- (i.e. If you throw an opponent who then has a Robot assist rocket hit you, the opponent will not be able to combo you immediately but will instead fall/spin and reset to neutral)
Dash
- You can now cancel grounded forward and back dash 5 frames earlier
Aerial Jump Cancels
- Can no longer jump cancel aerial attacks on block, only on hit
Fighter Changes
The first patch for the game focuses on improving how Fighters can capitalize on opponents’ mistakes during special and super moves, and balancing damage to prevent players from being defeated too easily by a single character.
Just a heads-up: While every character in the game has been adjusted, we’re only detailing the changes for those who were available in the Open Beta. This is because players will have already experienced how those characters play, so they’ll notice the differences.
