Invincible VS for PS5 has been reduced from £35.99 to £20.99 in the Argos Black Friday sale, and new TopCashback members can combine the price with a £15 sign-up bonus to pay just £5.47.

How the cashback deal works

TopCashback gives new customers a £15 sign-up bonus when they make a purchase of £15 or more at participating retailers, including Argos. For new members of both TopCashback and Argos, Invincible VS works out at £5.47 once cashback is factored in, or £5.90 for existing Argos customers.

Shoppers can choose free click and collect from a local Argos store, or standard home delivery priced from £4.95. The cashback becomes payable and available to withdraw after Argos has paid TopCashback the commission for the purchase, typically within seven working days.

Game modes and ratings

Invincible VS lets players battle as fan-favourite characters in iconic locations, with a cinematic story mode featuring an original narrative written by a writer from the animated series, plus competitive and casual multiplayer options. The game is rated for adults aged 18 and older.

The Argos offer beats prices elsewhere, with the standard PS5 version currently at £20.99 on Amazon and John Lewis, while Smyths Toys has it for £19.99. The PlayStation Store lists the game at £39.99.

Critical and player reception

Invincible VS holds a Metacritic score of 76 out of 100 from critics, with a player score of 6.8 out of 10. One fan praised the game, saying: "As an Invincible fan, this game really delivers! The graphics, the gameplay and narrative are fantastic."

Another player commented: "Invincible VS is legit the best fighter I've touched in years. Since it dropped on April 30, I've been obsessed with how they handled the 3v3 tag system. It's fast, incredibly fluid, and actually rewards you for learning complex assist combos rather than just button-mashing."

They added: "If you're a fan of the comics or the show, or just want a deep, technical fighter that doesn't hold your hand, this is a 10/10 masterclass in how to do a superhero game right."

Not all feedback was positive, with one player who rated it 6/10 saying: "The gameplay is amazing but gets old quick, and I love that it is a different fighting game, but the story and online are not good at all." Another 10/10 review described it as a "wonderful game" that "blends fast-paced combat with strategic decision-making, keeping players engaged throughout every match."

The exclusive edition of Invincible VS is available at Argos, with new TopCashback members able to sign up to secure the discounted price.
