Some of the Invincible VS DLC roster appears to have leaked online, pointing to the potential inclusion of fan-favorite characters and even an unexpected Spider-Man reference.
As players flocked to try out the Invincible fighting game upon its launch on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X | S April 30, 2026, others were more excited to dig into its files to see what might be coming next. Post-launch leaks following a release like this feels like par for the course for games like this, but the supposed leaks tied to Invincible VS might have revealed what developer Quarter Up has planned when it comes to DLC in the months ahead.
A post from X/Twitter user @multiversusie contains what appears to be uncovered files related to characters who have yet to be added to the game. Two of the names in question are the previously confirmed Immortal and Universa, with the others including the Mauler Twins, Damien Darkblood, Oliver, Angstrom, Dinosaurus, and Volcanikka.
Each voice line seemingly reveals not only that Quarter Up appears to have plans to add the new characters, but how some of their interactions with the base roster will play out in Invincible VS, too. One of the more exciting inclusions is Agent Spider, whose related character interactions can be heard at about 1:30 in the above post.
Agent Spider is the Prime Video Invincible show's legally distinct version of Spider-Man. He first appeared in the animated series in Season 2 as a sort of stand-in for the beloved Marvel hero, who has crossed over with the comic book the series is based on in the past.
Mark Grayson's interactions with Agent Spider are cute on their own, but it's the character's conversations with Omni-Man that really drive the Spider-Man references home. Invincible VS brought back TV show actor J.K. Simmons, who also famously played J. Jonah Jameson in more than a few Spider-Man projects, to voice Mark's dad for the game. Just like the Daily Bugle editor-in-chief, it seems Omni-Man has some very specific feelings about spider-like superheroes.
Omni-Man can be heard saying "You're a criminal, a vigilante, a public menace – what are you doing in my universe?" Right down to the "public menace" reference, fans will recognize the line as exactly the kind of thing J. Jonah Jameson has said when talking about Spider-Man in the past. We may not know if the leak is accurate for months, but if it is, then Quarter Up certainly seems to be making the most of Simmons' return in Invincible VS.
Since the character interaction leaks emerged earlier this week, even more evidence of DLC characters in Invincible VS seems to have been uncovered. In addition to supposed character models shared by @astragalu3, @multiversusie has posted footage of what appears to be a near-finished, playable version of Angstrom.
Invincible VS launched last week for PC and consoles. In our 7/10 review, we said that its "hard hitting and fast paced 3v3 tag fighting is a gust of fresh air, especially for those who miss the two-way interactable combo system of Killer Instinct."

Night Street Games, the studio founded by Imagine Dragons frontman Dan Reynolds and his brother and band manager Mac Reynolds, has announced it is shifting its focus away from Last Flag less than one month after its launch.
The studio behind the struggling capture-the-flag multiplayer experience updated fans with a post shared on its Steam page. It confirms that, following a series of pre-planned content updates set to roll out in the coming months, post-launch support for Last Flag will come to an end following its April 14 launch for PC via the Epic Games Store and Steam.
"Making Last Flag has been a dream come true for our team," Night Street said in a statement. "Although our player count is not currently where we need it to be to support additional development beyond our upcoming planned patches, we are shifting our focus to make sure those updates give tons of value and control to our players so the game can continue to thrive and grow."
The developers make it clear that Last Flag will not be shutting down, at least not anytime soon, saying, "We don't want to kill our game – we want to give it to the community who helped us get here." So, following the upcoming updates, which include a new character, map, game mode, cosmetics, leaderboards, and rulesets, Night Street will shift its focus to things like replayability and community support.
It says its goal is to empower dedicated fans to stick with the game and keep it alive with things like persistent lobbies and unique rules inspired by games like "GoldenEye, Team Fortress 2, and Super Smash Bros." As outlined in an additional post shared by Mac Reynolds on the official Last Flag Discord, the change of course means a console port is "unlikely."
"Thank you for the awesome matches, the feedback, and the many words of support," the Discord message continued. "Being able to build Last Flag for you has been a dream come true. Our game belongs to you now, and we hope to continue capturing flags with you for years to come. In the meantime, we’ll see you on the battlefield–and we hope you’ll tune in for what comes next from Night Street Games."
Night Street's second message noted that those who have "been following the Steam charts" know that Last Flag has been "unable to find the audience it needs to give all of you the experience you deserve." While Last Flag's total player count is unclear, SteamDB marks its all-time concurrent player peak as hitting 558 players shortly after launch. At the time of this story's publication, fewer than 40 users are playing through Steam.
Those who have stopped by to check out Last Flag have at least helped it achieve a "Mostly Positive" Steam rating. Although there are no plans for Night Street to continue creating new content, the $14.99 video game is currently in the midst of a free-to-play weekend, which runs through May 4 at 10 a.m. PT / 1 p.m. ET.
We interviewed the Night Street team ahead of Last Flag's reveal at Summer Game Fest 2025. During the conversation, we learned not only about where the Reynolds brothers got their idea for a capture-the-flag video game, but also why they decided to dive deeper into game development.

One of key the reasons developer IO Interactive is an inspired choice for adapting Ian Fleming's secret agent James Bond for a new video game is the team's work on the Hitman series. Focused on a variety of stealthy sandbox missions where you can use any method to take out targets hidden in lavish, exotic settings, Hitman's house gameplay style fits well with the conceit of a Bond adventure – especially as IO's flagship series already has plenty of 007 influence baked in.
But for 007 First Light, the developer wanted to offer a different spin on the open-ended gameplay it refined across earlier Hitman games. Along with familiar action set-pieces and slick gun battles, First Light's character-first approach to missions will let you use Bond's social skills and resourcefulness to overcome challenges. This created an opportunity for the dev team to make a more social, personality-driven stealth-action game, one that gives you the tools to make the most of the tense, over-the-top situations Bond finds himself in.
"It's been fantastic re-evaluating our learnings from the Hitman series for a James Bond game," said narrative director and Bond IP creative director Martin Emborg. "Agent 47 shines as a character because he's nobody. He's like the grim reaper that walks in dead-faced, does his job, and then gets out. But for 007 First Light, it's the complete opposite, because Bond is all about that charm and being cheeky and irreverent.
As I discovered in my recent preview, it's clear that 007 First Light puts emphasis on punchy forward-momentum in its overall structure, which is packed with big set-pieces and more laid back encounters. Think Hitman's freeform gameplay, but channeled through tightly designed levels in the vein of Naughty Dog's Uncharted series. Unlike the sandbox design of the Hitman games' clockwork-like levels, 007 First Light is a narrative-driven adventure that takes Bond on a variety of more linear-ish missions, yet the open-ended problem solving is still in full effect.
However, Bond doesn't have the ambiguity and chameleon-like veneer of Agent 47. Rather, he's always putting himself out there – even when undercover – and uses his approach of 'walking in like he belongs' to get him in and out of trouble. That aspect presents a really intriguing angle to explore in a stealth-action game, where you pick up clues, eavesdrop on conversations, and leverage information and quick wits to get ahead.
You can fake surrender and then use the opportunity to pull off a quick finisher when enemies get close.Along with social engineering, Bond can also use his heightened charisma to deceive his way to the objective. The bluff skill, which requires spending action points to pull off, allows you to remove suspicion from guards and even create humorous setups to slip past security personnel. It's very much an attempt to gamify Bond's famous quips and one-liners, which is amusing to see play out. Along with situations where you can fake surrender and then use the opportunity to pull off a quick finisher when enemies get close, I was even able to convince a suspicious guard that their fallen comrade (who I had previously knocked out) had a medical emergency and needed help, which allowed me to deliver a blow to his head when he came to investigate.
According to Emborg, the bluff and social-engineering elements add a new layer to the stealth-action gameplay and are designed to make the level settings feel more lived in.
"I think what we've done to make this world feel more active is with NPCs," he explains. "You can overhear conversations and then use that to bluff your way into areas. It actually pays off later in levels, too. When you bluff early, there's some interesting connective tissue going on where there's little mini plots that you can reference, and some other characters will go, 'Oh yeah, I heard about him.' I think that's a lot of fun to see happen.
"Does that need to be there in the game?" he asks. "No, but it's a great pleasure when those things kind of line up, and you go, 'Yeah, I heard them talk about that.'"
"That's a place where I think we're leveraging the work and the rewards of having done the Hitman series for all those years," he continued. "These writers are very used to handling a heavy stack of scripts, because we do these living, breathing worlds. But this time, we get to funnel that into telling a very forward-momentum kind of story, which is different from Hitman, but a bit more exciting to tell compared to the static, Rube Goldberg machine-like stories and sets of the Hitman games."
007 First Light is in many ways the most fully realized Bond game we've seen. While previous efforts like 2003's Everything or Nothing and 2005's From Russia with Love tried to inject more true-to-form spy-thriller aspects into a Bond game, many of the most notable entries were shoot-em-ups in the vein of the classic N64 GoldenEye. With the focus on bringing Bond into a stealth action-adventure game about truly being a spy, it presents an exciting restart for the series after 2021's farewell to Daniel Craig, No Time to Die. Hopefully, IO Interactive will be able to pull off its Bond reboot and build a new type of action-adventure series for the iconic character.

Crimson Desert developer Pearl Abyss has dropped another major patch for the game, this time adding brand new features designed for endgame players who had cleared out the world of combat.
As IGN has reported, some Crimson Desert players had started to complain that the vast open world of Pywel had become too peaceful because they’d killed everyone. This was because for the most part enemies do not respawn, and camps, which you can overtake, do not become repopulated with enemies once you’ve cleared them out.
Today’s patch changes all that by adding the boss Rematch and Re-blockade features. “We understand that as more regions of the continent were liberated, opportunities for combat naturally became less frequent,” Pearl Abyss said. “So to keep the sense of challenge alive, we've added the Rematch and Re-blockade content. We are continuing to refine these features, and this update serves as the first step by implementing their core, foundational systems. Building upon this base in future patches, we plan to progressively refine the content and craft a deeper world, so we hope you're looking forward to what we have in store.”
Pearl Abyss has added two modes for the Rematch feature, which applies to 69 bosses from the release of the patch: Reminisce, which lets you fight the boss as it was when you first encountered them; and Resonate, which scales the boss’ stats to match your progression.
There are three modes for Re-blockage to adjust its frequency, so you can tweak the probability that enemies will reappear at a stronghold.
Re-blockade Frequency: StableRe-blockades will not occur.Re-blockade Frequency: Conflict (default setting)Re-blockades will occur intermittently.Re-blockade Frequency: WarRe-blockades will occur frequently.Having these various options should make pretty much all players happy, given you can turn it off completely if you’re not a fan, or crank it all the way up to War if you want constant bloodshed. During the Re-blockade, 13 different factions will carry out re-blockades across 23 forts and quarries. Yes, if you really want to spend hours clearing out Karin Quarry again, you can.
Early reaction to the patch is very positive within the Crimson Desert community. "After beating the main story and all the bosses, I'm hungry for s**t to beat up and kill lol," said one fan. "Now I can actually tackle a bunch of remaining side quests without worrying about locking myself out of Sealed Abyss challenges or having to find them all first," added another. "Yup I’m setting that s**t to War. The combat with regular enemies is imo the best part of the game so I’m definitely itching for more of it," another declared.
Pearl Abyss said it plans to gradually increase the number of participating factions and targeted strongholds in the near future, will adjust the enemies appearing during re-blockades to "pose a much greater threat," and, interestingly, it plans to “improve the overall system of Liberation and Re-blockade.” Could a more complex, strategic mechanic be coming down the line?
That’s not all this patch does. It also adds new legendary creatures that can be kept as Pets, and fixes the issue preventing the summoning of legendary mounts and the issue causing comrade trust to reset following the release of the prior patch.
The patches are still coming thick and fast for Crimson Desert, which is now significantly changed compared to the launch version we got back in March. But if you’re just getting into the game, we recommend you take a look at our guide to Things to Do First in Crimson Desert, plus Things Crimson Desert Doesn’t Tell You. We’ve also got a guide to the Best Early Weapons we recommend picking up, the Best Skills to Get First (including a handy explainer of the skills system), and 34 Essential Tips and Tricks to help you succeed in Pywel.

Primary Portal Games
World of Warcraft
Sturmgrenadier is more organised, more active, and more structured than most guilds you would come across in WoW. We believe this gives us a distinct advantage in being the best guild we can be for our members, because everyone knows where they stand, and are treated equally. Players with negative attitudes will not be tolerated. That means that there is no epeen measuring, no belittling of other players, and no trolling.
EVE
EVE Online is Sturmgrenadier’s longest-played game, with over 16 years of continuous influence throughout New Eden. Traditional hallmarks of our gaming syndicate; organization and leadership, have propelled our in-game history to include participation in many of the defining moments of EvE gameplay.
New World
New World is an upcoming massively multiplayer online role-playing video game by Amazon Game Studios set to release in May 2020. Set in the mid-1600s, players colonize a fictional land modeled after British America in the Atlantic Ocean. Players scavenge resources, craft items, and fight other players.
