GamesRadar - Get ready to smash.
The long-rumored PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale is not just a real thing, it's a real thing that's coming out really soon. In just a few weeks you'll be able to play the Smash Bros.-inspired brawler yourself, pitting the likes of Kratos against some of the most well-known non-Nintendo characters in the industry.
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.
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.
Glad to hear it. I am excited to.
GET HYPE!
BONESAW IS READYYYY
Awesome!!!! :D!!!
I find it hard to be excited when they don't have staple iconic characters in the game. Instead they're using it as a way to advertise games that aren't out yet.
If anything they just need to scrap this franchise and reinvent it with a new name, mechanics, a roster of character that people actually want, and not let Superbot ever touch it.
