DualShock Nexus: Today Sony officially announced a public beta for Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale in the fall but didn't say when it would take place exactly. The private beta a lucky handful of players got to participate in will continue from now until early October. Once the private beta is finished is probably when the public beta will begin for the rest of us.
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.
Good luck getting into the beta everyone!
geeez so they won't be sending emails with beta codes to people anymore?
I wanna get in before that lol
Nvm should of read the article lol. Well I hope I get in to the private beta but its hard because every time I check FB the code is already taken!
I've heard from several people that the roster is still sort of a bummer with a lack of some key characters...
But this is definatley one of my most wanted games!
I was certain that Plus members would be getting in this month, October seems to far away, especially since the current private beta is very small and going all the way to October itself (and it wouldn't make sense to keep such a small limited beta for that long)
That's great if it's true.
