Junkie Monkeys: According to Sony Santa Monica’s Community Strategist, Aaron Kaufman (aka Just_Tank), PlayStation All-Stars: Battle Royale should be getting its final balance patch very soon.
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.
Sad to see this is the last patch, but at least it looks like they're giving it their all. Plus the news of the free avatars is pretty awesome!
Bit late don't you think, I really hope they come back to this concept in the future....but make it better
I mean only allowing supers to kill your opponent was annoying as hell. People are going to call it a Smash Bros clone regardless so they may as well of put a health mode in.
I would love a sequel to this. Super bot only got a few things wrong but overall the game was a blast and can be improved significantly with a sequel. They should start with:
-Better characters
-Better, more dynamic stages
-Maybe try to make each character more unique not just their attacks but the way they move. They cant all be the same speed, strength, etc.., smash bros for example each character is different. Fox is faster than bowser.
Now Sony knows that it's not about just putting a bunch of characters together.
Fix the horrible netcode.
