The Paranoid Gamer writes: "A lot of people expected PlayStation All Stars to ultimately fail in its goal to present a character driven, fan based brawler that could compete with the inevitably compared Smash Brothers. Aside from a few missteps that I believe SuperBot could have ample room to fix with a sequel, the game hits all the right strides and nails each character from its respected series. For PlayStation fans seeing Sackboy face off against Ratchet and Clank this is a no-brainer and for everyone else this is a rock-solid brawler with room for improvement in the single-player campaign and a need for more unlockables. If you love having a game to mix it up with buddies on the PlayStation 3 you can’t do much better than PlayStation All Stars: Battle Royale."
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.
luving this game
