While various spring sales and discounts are going on through PSN, those who go into the PlayStation Store and dig a bit can find that fighting game rumbler PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale is currently available for free.
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.
That's probably what I'd pay for it. Just a poor man's Smash Bros.
just checked its not free
Such a good game. Easily my second favorite brawler, behind Power Stone 1/2.
It's not free. PSN sometimes labels games you already own as being "free" but for people who don't own it will see the full price.
People down it but it at the time of release if you had a vita and ps3 this game was more than worth it I still play it from time to time still. It's not perfect but let's be honest sony really never intended it to be a smash Bros it just happened to be similar.
It was basically a promo game for 3rd parties the ones who didn't mind lending their characer for free or next to nothing. they had no advertising and let a rookie team of fighting game fans develop it and Santa Monica had to finish it ofF.
