Ultimate Showdown Wiki

The Amalgamated Timeline is a timeline formed through the coalescence of numerous divergent timelines and alternate universes in order to attempt to save the innumerable inhabitants of every existence from a horrible fate that was threatening the very existence of everything. This led to the timelines and histories of these numerous worlds to merge and, like a flowing of a river, resituate themselves to fit together properly and prevent the fabric of reality from tearing itself apart within the new pocket universe. Like the pocket universe itself, this list is ever-expanding.

This list features official dates for events throughout media, but does not represent the timeline seen in-game, where the events are all shuffled in such a way as to allow (most) sapient species to be alive and at their known peaks during the same time period. This in-game timeline is instead called the Consolidated Timeline.
