On the occasion of EVO France 2026 in Nice, we had the opportunity to test the team fighting game Invincible VS. Released in April 2026, the game continues its development, and a new character is making an appearance, Angstrom Levy, a strategic antagonist who will be officially released this Tuesday, October 13.
Headset on our heads and controller in hand, we immersed ourselves in a universe that was still unknown to us until then, that of the game Invincible VS. It was at a booth, at the entrance of the Nice Exhibition Park, on the occasion of EVO France 2026 that this opportunity was given to us.
In the same format as Tekken or Street Fighter, Invincible VS allows you to face another player in a duel by forming a team of three characters. Adapted from the American superhero comics series Invincible, the game features characters from the comics universe while offering regular new additions created specifically for the video game.
Released a few months ago, in April 2026, the game Invincible VS allows you to test as a preview, this weekend in Nice, an emblematic protagonist of the series: Angstrom Levy, who will be officially available on the game on October 13.
A captivating universe
The first striking thing when opening the menus is the immediate immersion in the universe of these superheroes. Characters, settings, menu design, the game is designed to plunge you into a bubble. No doubt that fans of the Invincible comics series will appreciate it more, even if the game retains real interest for newcomers as well as for e-sports players.
When composing your team of three, the choice of characters is decisive, and the differences between each of them are striking. From the big brute with an athletic physique like Titan, to the heroine with a pink cape who manipulates matter like Atom Eve, to the warrior with the appearance of a white lion like Battle Beast, there’s something for everyone.
And these notable differences are not just in appearance, they have a genuine strategic aspect. The urge to stack characters with warrior physiques is great, but we’ve decided that for our first match with controller in hand, we’re going to form a balanced trio.
Testing the new character Angstrom Levy
For the second match, same strategy, but this time it’s time to test the new character as a preview, Angstrom Levy. At first glance, Angstrom Levy has an appearance that could be described as ordinary under a metallic suit, a red cape, and an abnormally large skull and which doesn’t seem to make him particularly dangerous. Yet he possesses an innovative asset, he creates interdimensional portals to move unpredictably across the battlefield, and thus take control of the match.
Very quickly, his ability makes a difference, and unlike the first confrontation which had been close, it’s much easier to gain the upper hand over opponents. The multiple teleportations from one end of the play area to the other disturb the opposing player, who can barely manage to deal damage to the other team.
After two impressive victories, you have to know when to stop at the top and end this very pleasant, immersive, and even somewhat violent experience, we must admit.
As we left the booth, Jeff Landa, Community Director for the game Invincible VS at Skybound, the company that published the game, told us: « We really wanted to create a game aimed at adults, and that is faithful to the brutality of the Invincible comics series. Obviously it’s not for all audiences, but it contributes to the immersive side. »
So, young gamers and sensitive souls, abstain (Pegi +18, Editor’s note), blood spurts, explosions, mutilations and swearing are part of the game. Apart from that, the game is easy to pick up, the game universe is immersive and strategies are numerous with the 21 available characters. The game is available on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series.
