Twinfinite's Yamilia Writes: "PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale is a new IP from Sony that combines all of their beloved characters from first party games and mashes them together in different arenas to fight to the bloody death. Okay, so maybe they’re not exactly killing each other brutally like Kratos or Sweet Tooth would definitely do. The game follows the fighting game style of Super Smash Bros. in that characters can jump about a small battlefield while fighting three other enemies with their own attacks, the environment, or items. A lot of people scoffed when All-Stars was announced saying it was obviously ripping off Super Smas Bros. and that Sony’s mascots being placed in a game together seemed force. Yeah, maybe they are obviously ripping off Super Smash Bros., but to say that Sony’s mascots don’t deserve their own game together is a disservice to all their franchises. There is enough variety and character among them that it simply works. The gameplay mechanics, on the ot...
Sometimes, you don't need a Nintendo Switch to play the best platform fighters.
playstation all stars would have been good if you could finish without ultimate moves. Made the game so boring and repetitive. The rest of the combat was really fun but that just killed it for me. Look at smash where you can get such creative kills and here you just wait for lvl 3 ult and press one button.
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
Hmm.. Broken combat doesnt sound good.. Many other previews say its really REALLY fun so ill reserve my judgement for when i pick it up.. As long as i see positive reviews, im not going to allow a couple negative responses prevent me from playing this.. Its great eye candy to see all these fighters together in one place.. Cross buy is also another incentive to get it
