'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a [[:Category:Characters/Phighters/Support|support]] Phighter. He was released on 19 February 2022 with [[Playtest 1]].
==Overview==
'''Boombox''' is a support [[Phighters|Phighter]] who specializes in controlling the battlefield with his intense knockback and shield-based abilities. Perfectly timing {{Abilitylink|BoomboxPrimary}} allows Boombox to increase his own damage or the supportive effects of {{Abilitylink|BoomboxSecondary}} through gaining charges. {{Abilitylink|BoomboxE}} grants Boombox a forcefield that blocks incoming projectiles, allowing for him and his teammates to close the gap against the opposition. His Phinisher, {{Abilitylink|BoomboxPhinisher}}, can turn the tides of the battle with a powerful crowd control, as well as granting his teammates a huge overshield, making them nearly invincible for a few seconds.
