'Looney Tunes' Teases Big Chungus For Its Mobile Game

Looney Tunes World of Mayhem, a mobile turn-based game in which toons maim each other with conveniently placed anvils, comedically large cannons and in other ways appropriate for kids aged 10 and above, has just teased the "Forbidden One" — and by that, we mean that they are going to add Big Chungus in-game.

On Monday, the overused, mocked and yet still ironically loved Big Chungus, who is basically an obese version of Bugs Bunny with a silly expression, appeared in a short teaser posted on the game's social media accounts. The developers have also updated the game's icon on Android, with it now showing one more Big Chungus than it used to.

The form in which Big Chungus will manifest itself in the mobile game was not clarified. While it could be added as a playable toon, it may also potentially be included as a special attack.

Big Chungus became a meme in late 2018 when a Redditor took a frame from 1941 short "Wabbit Twouble" and used it to create a mock-up cover of a PS4 game titled Big Chungus.

Also first launched in 2018, Looney Tunes World of Mayhem is a turn-based action RPG in which characters from Looney Tunes characters fight each other by using cartoonish violence.

Whether the upcoming addition will make Big Chungus a canonic part of the Looney Tunes universe remains to be confirmed.
