As we’ve said all along, our mission is to reestablish OverPower as one of the preeminent tabletop games in the world, not just reaffirming its standing but to push it above and beyond all previous levels of popularity.”
“We love partnering with companies that are genuine fans of the IP,” added Garima Sharma, VP of Licensing and Partnerships at Skybound. “OverPower has long been a beloved game, and we’re thrilled to see Invincible and The Walking Dead branded products hitting shelves soon—offering fans yet another exciting way to connect with the worlds they love.”
