"PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, the PlayStation spin-off of Nintendo's Super Smash Bros., excited many PlayStation fans when it debuted on GameTrailers TV on April 27th. Originally announced exclusively for the PlayStation 3, the title PlayStation fans had prayed would come to life finally became official and at this year's E3, PlayStation sweetened the deal further. Not only will PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale launch on the PlayStation 3 this holiday season, but the PlayStation Vita will also host the epic battle of PlayStation characters and support cross play functionality with the PlayStation 3."

While Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale didn't get the best review, there are still some aspects of the game that deserve some credit.
Though PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale is a bit of a cult classic, it could have been a big hit if it launched in 2022 instead of 2012.
It wouldn't have mattered, Sony would've rushed it out and left it to die. More so now than before with their focus now being on SP narrative driven AAA games.
Oh, but somehow Smash Bros. 64 made it work?
It just couldn’t compete with Smash Bros. and it wasn’t a free-to-play game like Multiversus.
I think it released at the right time. It's just after the success of Smash and Multiversus, it's finally time for a sequel.
I'd be all in on a remake or remaster of the original. I enjoyed it because I didn't sit there and compare every aspect to SSB. I just enjoyed it as it was.
Sony should make part 2 and dump a good amount of money on it. Scrap super only kills and it's bound to succeed.
Yes the power kills spoilt it completely WTH was they thinking you should have hp bar that's it
God of War: Ragnarok has plenty of fun references to PlayStation history, but now fans have discovered a conversation that calls back to PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale — the crossover fighting game released for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita.
That’s interesting. It actually does make it canon lol. He mentioned it in a mainline game. I’d say that’s pretty cool.
I still need to see more from PS All-Stars, feel like it needs to show me more of something to get it away from the smash bros comparisons. But overall, cross play with Vita is real good. Hope they give you something for connecting with the Vita.
After having the chance to play PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale on both the PS3 and Vita as well as through Cross Play, I must say I am impressed by what SuperBot Entertainment has pulled off. I am looking forward to hearing everyone's impressions when the game launches this holiday season!
they need to add a one on one mode in this game.
