Blue Mammoth Games Announces The Walking Dead Crossover For Brawlhalla Set To Arrive Next Week

Last week, players learning that the addition of Minecraft’s Steve to the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate roster views the latest recruitment to be a very wildcard announcement to make regarding the brawler genre. But it should be recognized the Nintendo does have some competition while Blue Mammoth Games is still working on the evergrowing Brawlhalla.

Taken from a previous crossover reveal back in February, Blue Mammoth Games announced to be collaborating with Square Enix to include Lara Croft A.K.A. Tomb Raider to the game’s roster. That is not to mention a slew of other partnered announcements with other firms like Cartoon Network and World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) where both companies offered now two separate crossovers.

Now this week, the next crossover is set to arrive next week with the announcement for The Walking Dead being the next partnership. In the new deal with television network AMC, Brawlhalla will welcome Rick, Daryl, and Michonne to the cast of characters.

Michonne, Daryl Dixon, and Rick Grimes of AMC’s “The Walking Dead” are joining Brawlhalla’s roster of Legends starting October 14, when a special crossover event kicks off within the free-to-play platform fighter. Available as Epic Crossovers for Koji, Ember, and Barraza respectively, Michonne, Daryl, and Rick will arrive alongside a map depicting the prison from seasons 3 and 4; a new game mode that challenges players to survive against unending waves of walkers for as long as possible; and a new Podium and KO effect.

For now, there is little to expand on the new crossover for Brawlhalla, but as time inches closer to the new additions being available fans can expect a trailer with more elaborating on the update. As elaborated in the statement from Ubisoft, there will of course be a new stage alongside a game mode centered around fighting against walkers in the new experience.

Lately in the Brawlhalla competitive scene, Team Rectify’s Lil Capped and Ithrow during last month’s 2v2 Championship ended their campaign in Top 8 when being faced against Cody Travis & Phazon. You can read the latest on Rectify Esports by heading here.
