Death Battle (stylized as DEATH BATTLE!) is a popular web series created by Ben Singer and formerly produced by Rooster Teeth, hosted on Rooster Teeth's website and the DEATH BATTLE! YouTube channel (formerly known as ScrewAttack). The show pits two or more fictional characters from different medias such as movies, comics, manga, television programs, literature, video games, advertisements, public service announcements, and even mythology in a simulated battle to the death. The characters are analyzed with their respective powers, strengths, and weaknesses to determine a winner.
On March 6th, 2024, it was announced that Death Battle's owner and production company, Rooster Teeth, would be shut down by its parent company, Warner Bros. Discovery, leaving the current status of Death Battle as uncertain and its production on an indefinite hiatus. Chad James has stated that the crew are working to find a way to keep the show going, while Ben Singer has confirmed that the DEATH BATTLE! YouTube channel will remain up. Although the fate of the show is not yet finalized, as of now, it has been confirmed that no new videos will be uploaded after May 10th, as the crew will lose access to the YouTube channel then. A final update video will be posted before then, and any further updates will be posted on the YouTube community tab and other social media afterward.
The show currently has 187 episodes, which are split up into seasons.
Season 1 had 25 episodes and a Bonus episode. It premiered on December 6th, 2010 and ended on January 10th, 2013.
Season 2 had 32 episodes and a Bonus episode. It premiered on May 31st, 2013 and ended on December 15th, 2015.
The idea of the show is to pit two or more fictional characters against each other in a simulated fight to the death, referred to as a "death battle". Matchups are decided based on the popularity of requests, debatability, entertainment, and theme.
The show is hosted by the original characters Wizard and Boomstick (along with the later additions of DUMMI, Ringmaster, and Jocelyn the Intern).
Before the fight, the hosts provide an analysis of each combatant, analyzing their backstory, character, powers, equipment, skills, strengths, weaknesses, and physicality. This is done by extensive research of each combatant's official, canon media, as well as the calculation of feats and powerscaling. If a character has multiple versions (e.g., Link), said character will be composited throughout all forms of media unless a certain version is too deviant from the main source (for example, Sonic the Hedgehog and Archie Sonic are considered two different characters, though the latter was composited into the former back in Season 1).
After the analyses, the fight animation is shown, portraying the combatants fighting to the death. The animation shows off how the combatants' various abilities and skills would interact with each other, and in later seasons, includes original dialogue provided by voice actors as well as an original soundtrack. The animation is not meant to completely accurately portray how a fight between the combatants would go, but instead exists mainly for entertainment and to display the verdict. The animation style varies with each episode, but is most commonly 2D sprite animation and occasionally 3D computer animation. The fights are also more uncommonly animated with hand-drawn animation or even portrayed in live action.
1.Combatants have no prior knowledge of each other unless specified.
2.To ensure a fair fight, any specific moral restraints from killing are removed from combatants. All other traits are considered.
3.A combatant's maximum personal potential is examined unless specified otherwise. Factors unrelated to combatants cannot end the battle.
4.Unless specified, all official material related to a character is applied unless found contradictory to the primary source material.
For the first two seasons of the show, there wasn't a consistent schedule, as episodes were released from anywhere between a single week to a few months, with some episodes even having to be delayed due to external factors such as hardware failure or issues in the animation process.
From Season 3 to Season 6 (and for Gogeta VS Vegito), episodes were released every three weeks. In the first two weeks, previews of each combatant's analyses were released, and in the third week, the episode was released at around 12:00 PM CST.
Starting with Season 7, episodes are released biweekly. The schedule is similar to the old one, with the combatants' analysis previews being released the Monday and Wednesday before the episode is released and the episode itself releasing the following Sunday around 12:00 PM CST for FIRST Members (and Death Battle Champions starting with Gogeta VS Vegito) and on Monday for the general public. In the middle of the season, the show will generally take a short break, with DBX or Desk of DEATH BATTLE taking its place for an unspecified amount of weeks before Death Battle's return (though Season 10 lacked this break in exchange for starting two months later than usual).
During Season 10, the schedule was changed slightly. Due to internal speculation that the early releases for Champions were negatively affecting the overall performance of the season's episodes on YouTube, a test of a lack of them for both Champions and FIRST Members was done from Frieza VS Megatron to Scooby-Doo VS Courage the Cowardly Dog to see the potential difference. After said tests, the early release perk was removed for both parties, with episodes going forward now releasing on Monday for the general public without any kind of early release the day prior.
Official Death Battle merchandise is available on the Rooster Teeth store. The merchandise is primarily various T-shirts, but also includes a hat and a card game.
