Brawlhalla Tales: Nix Expands the Universe of the Popular Fighting Game

Blue Mammoth Games' popular free-to-play fighting game Brawlhalla may be notable for its many pop culture guest stars, but the game also has a mythology and cast of characters all its own. One of those characters now takes the spotlight in Brawlhalla Tales: Nix, an original graphic novel spinoff.

Head down to the slideshow gallery below for an exclusive 10-page preview of Brawlhalla Tales: Nix:

Brawlhalla Tales: Nix is written by Brawlhalla veterans R.J. Jost and Matt Woomer, with Jost also handling the art. The creative team also includes colorist Roshan Kurichiyanil and letterer Lucas Gattoni.

Here's Dark Horse's official summary of the graphic novel:

Nix, a freelance angel of death and the finest reaper of the Underworld, misses her mark at the hands of a rogue Valkyrie – and she never misses! She travels across the nine realms to Valhalla to reclaim her bounty, but the afterworld is not as she expected. Nix discovers strange enemies, stranger friends, and tougher fights than she ever imagined. Now begrudgingly teamed up with an unlikely partner, Nix will need to win Odin’s tournament of heroes if she wants to keep her job and, more importantly, her soul.

Brawlhalla Tales: Nix is priced at $19.99 and will be released on June 17. You can preorder the book on Amazon.

Last year, we picked Brawlhalla as one of the best free-to-play games available on the Nintendo Switch.
