The first ever Brawlhalla graphic novel arrives in June 2025

Posted on by

Dark Horse Comics and Ubisoft present the first ever Brawlhalla graphic novel, Brawlhalla Tales: Nix. With a community of more than 100 million players, a selection of more than 60 playable characters battling in the halls of Valhalla and the possibility to engage in casual or competitive matches, Brawlhalla has made a name for itself among free-to-play fighting games. Brawhalla Tales: Nix features writing and narrative guidance from Brawlhalla co-creator Matt Woomer, art by game Illustrator R.J. Jost, with colorist Roshan Kurichiyanil, and letterer Lucas Gattoni; this is a legendary story you won’t want to miss!

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 an action-packed graphic novel that will delight both longtime fans and newcomers alike, immersing them in the vibrant world of Brawlhalla, uniquely brought to life in a comic book format for the first time by the creators of the game.

Join the fight-filled action adventure in Brawlhalla Tales: Nix. The 112-page (6.635” x 10.1875”) paperback will be available at bookstores and comic shops on June 17, 2025, for $19.99. Pre-order now directly from TFAW, Amazon, Barnes and Noble or your local bookstore, or visit Comic Shop Locator for more details and stores near you.
