Mario

Bing Bing Wahoo! The face of video games himself, Super Mario has jumped up to new heights as the host of King for Another Day (Beta Mix)!

Monika

Every day I imagine a future where I can interview.
In my hand is a pen that’ll write the story of what you do.


Yep! That’s right! From fakeout reveals in both King for a Day Tournaments, to being a crucial asset of Studio Gunner’s rigorous janitorial staff, Monika rises up to the occasion by taking on Meowth’s former responsibilities as King for Another Day (Beta Mix)’s interviewer! With her prior experience as a member of staff and excellent writing skills as the head of the literature club, she won’t be just writing down poems in her trusty notebook, but jotting down all the crucial journalistic details necessary for getting high quality BOJO!! interviews published for the audience to read.

BadlandsChugs

Don’t touch that mouse, because you’re watching BadlandsChugs, and this is King for Another Day (Beta Mix)! Arriving at the DoubleTree with the Kai Cenat-signed Das Boot in hand, he’s not here to compete. He just wants to chug the world one bottle at a time, and a place like this is perfect for trying some out-of-this-world beverages!

Noggin Clontith

Hullo me ol’ chums! Noggin the Gnome has made his way from the garden to the battlefield! But he’s gnot in it for the fame or fortune, gno… he’s here to GNOME as many people as possible and King for Another Day (Beta Mix) is the perfect platform for him to get started on that path!

Professor Layton

Arriving from the curious villages of London, his top hat and bold English accent need no introduction for they belong to the one and only Professor Hershel Layton! Highlighting his splendid puzzle solving forte, this Englishman can solve any and all genres of them! But be warned – keep an eye out for troublesome brainteasers down the line, otherwise the brains of the bracket will pinpoint the exact coordinates pronto. One more thing, say hi to Phoenix and Maya for us!

Crazy Clown Crew

With the proclamation that he could do anything, defying the timespace continuum, Jevil trekked his way through other universes and timelines after being freed to recruit the untrustworthy trickster jesters, Marx and Dimentio for something truly chaotic.

Mount Everest

The world’s tallest mountain is used to having people conquer it, but now it’s ready to climb to the top and win over the audience of King for… Another… Day… Look, we’re not exactly sure how Mount Everest got here, or how it’s making rips, it just sorta appeared one day floating above the studio. Just roll with it.
