Dimension Brawl

Dimension Brawl is a 2.5-D fighting game published and developed by NetherRealm Studios. It is the official sequel to Dimension Clash. It is meant as a mod for the upcoming Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite.

## Summary

Unlike its predecessor, Dimension Brawl will be formatted as a 2-v-2 fighter which runs on Unreal Engine, similarly to Capcom's upcoming Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite. However, unlike MvC: Infinite, Dimension Brawl retains the LMHS button scheme that Dimension Clash used. Also, assists are notably absent, replaced with the Active Switch mechanic, where your characters can be switched off during any offensive and defensive option, allowing for extremely tricky set-ups.

## Characters

The full retail roster contains 36 playable characters, 25 of them new to the Dimension Clash series but 17 of these 25 new to the NetherRealm crossovers in general. NetherRealm has also announced six DLC characters that will actually be free if one pre-orders the game, who have since been revealed via a promotional picture on NetherRealm's Twitter. Half of the DLC characters are returning combatants from Dimension Clash, while the other half debut in Dimension Brawl, with two characters carried over from the Fighter's Island series and the other makes his NetherRealm crossover debut here.

In addition, NetherRealm announced that the game's final boss would be known as PGDK, an original being that is a physical combination of Pilltax, Doctor Giga, Damoclus and Krunus, the game's four main villains.

It was announced that a second wave of 6 downloadable characters would come out in the summer of the same year. Only one of them is a returning veteran from Ultimate Dimension Clash.
