Brawlhalla Goes Full Ogre Mode: Shrek, Fiona, Puss in Boots Join Roster for 25th Anniversary
Shrek is crashing Brawlhalla, and it’s all thanks to the original film's 25th anniversary. Fans can expect to brawl as Shrek, Fiona, Donkey (as a companion!), and Puss in Boots starting July 29. Ubisoft is pulling out all the stops for this DreamWorks collaboration, even adding Shrek's iconic Swamp as a new map. Revealed at Brawlhalla's Midseason Championship, this crossover taps into the beloved franchise ahead of Shrek 5's cinematic debut next summer. It’s a significant moment for the platform fighter, bringing an unexpected but hugely popular Western IP into the fray, a growing trend in the fighting game scene.

Catzye Take
What's interesting here is how platform fighters continue to lean into major IP crossovers to keep their rosters fresh and draw new players. Fans who grew up with Shrek will definitely want to check this out. It also builds hype for Shrek 5, proving these kinds of gaming tie-ins are more than just simple promotions.
