Forums - Sony Discussion - All Stars sells One million globally

http://www.gamepodunk.com/_/industry-news/sony/playstation-all-stars-sold-over-1-million-units-globally-still-not-enough-to-continue-r2943

SCE Worldwide Studios president Shuhei Yoshida recently spoke of Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale and its ultimate fate on the most recent episode of IGN's Podcast Beyond. He explained that the game sold over one million units worldwide and that Sony "liked the idea" but that ultimately sales weren't high enough to continue creating DLC or a definite sequel.

Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale only had 4 DLC characters released in two separate installments, with the first being Kat and Emmett Graves(from Gravity Rushand Starhawk, respectively), and then Isaac Clarke and Zeus (from Dead Space and God of War) later on.

Though Sony doesn't seem to be ruling out another game in the series sometime later on, it does unfortunately appear as if the series is being put on the backburner right now, if not indefinitely. This development was hardly surprising, however, given that Sony had cut ties with developer Superbotback in the end of January. It looks like our dreams of seeing Crash Bandicoot as a playable character in the game won't happen after all.

Counting PS+?

Maybe they should make a sequel with CHARACTERS PEOPLE WANT TO PLAY AS.

Was it ever on ps+?

I think you mean the Vita freebies i.e Buy ps3 get vita free.



PS One/2/p/3slim/Vita owner. I survived the Apocalyps3/Collaps3 and all I got was this lousy signature.


Xbox One: What are you doing Dave?

Was wondering why we haven't heard any DLC news yet. Still scratching my head why they would put Zeus over Abe in this game when its developers were begging for Superbot to put him in.



Well at least it made a million. I've played it and all, and I'm not trolling I really think smash is better :p
its a great game and all, and I think it should've gotten at least 2 - 3 million by now. but I just don't think its as fun as smash bros.

Not surprised. The roster of this game is pretty laughable. They should use characters that, I don't know, WERE IMPORTANT TO THE PLAYSTATION CONSOLES?

I'm talking about Crash, Spyro, Lara Croft, Snake, Cloud (or any FF character from VII and beyond really), you know. NOT DmC Dante, Big Daddy, Raiden...

All 3rd party characters that I'm sure just about all of them will have red tape surrounding them all no go. They clearly had to make do with the ones they had rights to.

I personally hope they make a sequel.

Maybe. Or maybe I meant all the sales it's had. With PS+ it's been like $10 or $15 several times. I don't know what I meant!



Gotta believe
