Official Character Names Revealed for Upcoming Animated Series MrBeast Lab: The Descent
July 29, 2025 – Los Angeles, CA – In a long-awaited update from the creators of MrBeast Lab: The Descent , the names of the animated series' two lead characters have been officially revealed: KLAW, the powerful panther hybrid, and PEELER, the tech-enhanced robotic banana companion. The announcement marks the first time character identities have been disclosed since the release of the series' teaser trailer earlier this summer, which generated significant buzz across social media platforms and within the animation community. Meet KLAW: The Apex Hybrid Warrior Described as the 'ultimate fusion of beast and biotech,' KLAW is a muscular panther-like creature engineered within the depths of the Beast Lab. With piercing cyan eyes, electrified claws, and a battle-hardened form, Klaw is the lead combatant in the resistance against the mysterious shadow force known as The Shroud. Klaw's design features a striking blue and black color palette, accentuated by a lightning bolt insignia across his chest and pulse-reactive armor. He is positioned as the central hero in the mission to rescue MrBeast, who is reportedly trapped in the lower levels of the Lab. Introducing PEELER: The Armored Banana with a Bite Joining Klaw in this high-stakes mission is PEELER, an unconventional yet essential ally. Peeler's bright yellow, segmented banana body floats above the ground, fitted with sleek mechanical plating and reinforced gauntlets. His helmet includes a glowing red visor and signature angular ears — blending comic flair with functional engineering. Despite his humorous appearance, Peeler is believed to house core intelligence critical to navigating the Lab's 100 perilous floors and countering the Shroud's influence. Sources close to production refer to Peeler as 'the heart of the team' — combining wit, tactical insight, and unmatched loyalty. Set to premiere globally on YouTube in October 2025, MrBeast Lab: The Descent is a narrative-driven animated series produced in partnership with Moose Toys and Stoopid Buddy Stoodios. The series expands upon the MrBeast Lab toy franchise with an original sci-fi story, collectible monsters, and a host of hybrid creatures battling to save Earth from interdimensional threats. Fans and industry insiders have speculated on the identities of the two lead characters since teaser images first surfaced at San Diego Comic-Con. Today's confirmation provides clarity and fuels further anticipation ahead of the show's global debut. Following the reveal, hashtags such as #KLAWUnleashed and #TeamPeeler began trending across platforms, with audiences praising the names for their simplicity and brand synergy. Official merchandise featuring Klaw and Peeler is expected to be released in coordination with the show's launch, including collectible figures, apparel, and limited-edition digital content. MrBeast Lab: The Descent follows a team of experimental hybrids as they traverse the perilous depths of a massive underground facility to rescue MrBeast and thwart the growing threat of The Shroud. Each level introduces new mutations, monstrous challenges, and the untold secrets of the lab's original experiments.
