On February 12, downloadable content (DLC) will be made available in the form of two new characters. The two additional fighters, Emmett Graves from “Starhawk” and Kat from “Gravity Rush" will be free for the first two weeks they are available, so download them even if you're not sure you'll ever play the game.

I got them both and they're great.
Kat is obviously better and easier to use, but Emmet is also fun in his own right.
What's the most amazing is the Heavenly Sword level 'Fearless'. That is now my favourite level.

Excited for more characters and stages!

That's great, Tear.
And never say never, she might join the list someday, who knows.

Tomorrow and this Wednesday (depending on your platform) Zeus and Isaac (from respectively God of War and Dead Space) are joining the cast ! Plus a new map as well (mix of The Unfinished Swan and Medievil). I can't wait !

Haha, thanks!

It looks like Zeus and Isaac aren't up yet. It'll probably be much later today for me...

Now, I kind of doubt many people on here still play this game. But Sony just released a trailer today called 'The Ultimate Update'. Unfortunately, there were no new characters revealed and this trailer serves more as an announcement of bug fixes and character balancing than anything else -_-



I just find it funny that this was released on the exact same day as the Smash Bros. Nintendo direct livestream. Were Sony really expecting any more people to go out and buy a two year old game that honestly failed in terms of it's potential?

I mean, the roster isn't even completely representative of Playstation's history in retrospect. Sure, we have Jak and Daxter, Ratchet and Clank, Sly Cooper, Spike from Ape Escape, Sir Daniel Fortesque, Heihachi from Tekken and Kratos, but we also end up with some rather bizarre choices such as DmC Dante, Big Daddy, Fat Princess and even Sony's own Japanese mascot Toro

On top of that, the few DLC character releases were simply awful(outside of Kat from Gravity Rush.) Honestly, who the hell asked for these characters? It just blows my mind that they cancelled DLC character releases(such as Abe from Oddworld or Dart from Legend of Dragoon) who are more representative of PlayStation, just so we can play as Zeus from God of War, the guy from Starhawk and the guy from Dead Space

Also, let me get this straight. So Sony somehow managed to convince EA to use one of their characters, but not Activision or Square-Enix? Again, I imagine more fans were clamoring for Crash, Spyro, Lara and a Final Fantasy character in some form over the guy from Dead Space. *groans*

Then again, barely anyone care about this game anymore. So not really a big deal now right?

It kind of shocks me they're bothering to update this game. Given that Superbot is no more and they pretty much abandoned all support for the game, there is literally no reason to go back to it. They jumped ship pretty damn fast, now they want to get back on it, but it's at the bottom of the goddam ocean!

Too late Sony. You had your chance, but you blew it. Too late to try and steal Smash Bros spotlight.

I used to religiously play this game with my ex, but the tremendous character inbalance (Kratos was OP as ****) made us lose interest awhile ago. I played as Kat and she was fun. But yeah, they should've updated/patched it up or at least provide new characters to keep it going. I, too, would be surprised if anyone still played this. Granted, it was fun, but it loses its fun quickly.

If they put Sora or Spyro in it, though, I would probably play it again. xD
