Graveyard mashes up MediEvil's zombies, mausoleums, and gargoyles with elements from The Unfinished Swan, revealed via ink splats after a mid-game whiteout. It looks great and keeps the fighting honest, with a medium-width playfield and zombies that will earn you AP when destroyed. ]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8512132022/" title="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale DLC 2 by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8241/8512132022_e6195cd449_z.jpg" width="640" height="360" alt="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale DLC 2"></a></p>
<p>Just stopping by today with a quick reminder that Zeus and Isaac Clarke are live today for <a href="http://us.playstation.com/games/playstation-all-stars-battle-royale-ps3.html?CMP=soc_us__gm_psasbr_dlc2_03_19_13" target="_blank">PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale</a>, along with our new stage &#8220;Graveyard&#8221;! </p>
<p>Graveyard mashes up MediEvil&#8217;s zombies, mausoleums, and gargoyles with elements from The Unfinished Swan, revealed via ink splats after a mid-game whiteout. It looks great and keeps the fighting honest, with a medium-width playfield and zombies that will earn you AP when destroyed. </p>
<p>Zeus plays as a legendary heavyweight, making each strike feel epic. He&#8217;s got limited range, but with the ability to power up every attack merely by holding down the button, he can crush a cowardly opponent&#8217;s guard and build AP faster than anyone. Many of his triangle lightning attacks are also excellent at catching multiple opponents for an even faster ride towards his truly Olympian level 3 super.</p>
<p class="center"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8512132210/" title="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale DLC 2 by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8385/8512132210_a87ea70132_n.jpg" width="312" height="176" alt="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale DLC 2"></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8511020031/" title="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale DLC 2 by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8369/8511020031_ee096aafbe_n.jpg" width="312" height="176" alt="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale DLC 2"></a></p>
<p>Isaac Clarke is at his best harassing opponents from mid-range, with a wide variety of projectiles powered up by his unique Stasis and Kinesis powers. He&#8217;s no slouch at close range either, with some mighty melee attacks and the short-range force gun, but he shines brightest harassing more distant opponents with the grenade launcher, bouncing bola, and his Plasma Cutter. </p>
<p>Both characters come with full single-player story modes, including intros, outros, and rival scenes, as well as exclusive unlockable minions, a second unlockable costume, and all the unique customizable taunts, themes, etc. you&#8217;ve come to expect. </p>
<p>In addition to today&#8217;s launch of Zeus and Isaac, we&#8217;ve also done a new balance patch, which modifies every existing character in some way (and fixes some pesky glitches), as well as adding some new bells and whistles to familiar items. The hardcore players can check out the details <a href="http://community.us.playstation.com/t5/PlayStation-All-Stars-Battle/PlayStation-All-Stars-Battle-Royale-Notes-on-3-19-13-Balance/m-p/39878989#U39878989" target="_blank">here</a> in the official PlayStation All-Stars forums. </p>
<p>Isaac and Zeus both come free for anyone that purchased a retail copy of <a href="http://us.playstation.com/games/god-of-war-ascension-ps3.html?CMP=soc_us__gm_psasbr_dlc2_03_19_13" target="_blank">God of War: Ascension</a> (it&#8217;ll be in your box as a pack-in code). For anyone else, you can pick them up on PSN for $4.99 each. The Graveyard stage is available for free in online ranked matches and is $1.99 to own it. Both of these new All-Stars add some very unique angles to the game. I&#8217;ll see you online.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi guys, </p>
<p>Happy to be back to tell you about some new surprises from <a href="http://us.playstation.com/psvita/games-and-media/psv-playstation-all-stars-battle-royale.html?CMP=soc_us__gm_psasbr_dlc2_02_27_13">PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale</a>. More  costumes? More minions? Well, okay, yes. But also more new characters!</p>
<div style="float:right; padding:25px; padding-right:0px; padding-bottom:10px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8513458211/" title="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale: Zeus by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8515/8513458211_39a79336c7.jpg" width="200" height="452" alt="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale: Zeus"></a></div>
<p><iframe width="400" height="225" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/-TzgO_wDJ7Y" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Our newest challengers are Isaac Clarke from Electronic Arts’ <a href="http://www.deadspace.com/">Dead Space</a>, and Zeus from&#8230; well, from some of the foundational myths of Western society, but also from a little PlayStation game you might know called <a href="http://www.godofwar.com/">God of War</a> by SCEA Santa Monica Studio.</p>
<p>How did these two emerge as All-Stars from the vast PlayStation multiverse? Synchronicity. We were talking with some friends over at EA who were hard at work on Dead Space 3, and with a lot of Dead Space fans on our team and all the cool tools at Isaac&#8217;s disposal, some quick concepts emerged and we knew he&#8217;d be a great addition. We&#8217;ve also wanted to add another &#8220;heavy,&#8221; hard-hitting character into All-Stars (Big Daddy was getting lonely), and with all the work on <a href="http://us.playstation.com/games/god-of-war-ascension-ps3.html?CMP=soc_us__gm_psasbr_dlc2_02_27_13">God of War: Ascension</a> around Sony Santa Monica, Zeus emerged as a perfect fit.</p>
<div style="clear: both;"></div>
<p class="center"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8511020031/" title="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale DLC 2 by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8369/8511020031_ee096aafbe_n.jpg" width="312" height="176" alt="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale DLC 2"></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8511020489/" title="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale DLC 2 by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8521/8511020489_ef6d7a5e10_n.jpg" width="312" height="176" alt="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale DLC 2"></a></p>
<p>As you might remember, Zeus is kind of an arrogant jerk, but one thing you can say for him is that he does not mess around. As King of the Gods, he&#8217;s a big guy, used to getting his way, and he hits HARD.  Of course he&#8217;s got some cool combos, but his primary offense is centered around fewer, but more powerful strikes that generate a ton of AP and send enemies flying. He can power up virtually all of his attacks into a &#8220;charged&#8221; version with all kinds of new effects, giving him one of the biggest move lists in the game. Super-armored rushing punches, a clone move, teleports, and lightning bolts&#8211;lots and lots of lightning bolts.  Your best bet against Zeus is to stay on his good side (aka behind him), or far away.</p>
<p>His level 1 is a giant Lightning Clap that lacks range but has a great area of effect. Level 2 lets Zeus take to the skies and fly anywhere before exploding in a deadly lightning storm. His level 3 &#8220;Wrath of Zeus&#8221; takes you to Olympus to fight a godlike 100-foot tall Zeus, and in true boss-fight form, he can wipe out half the screen with a single strike.</p>
<div style="float:left; padding:25px; padding-left:0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8513458335/" title="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale: Isaac by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8387/8513458335_14ffa41d08.jpg" width="200" height="400" alt="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale: Isaac"></a></div>
<p><iframe width="400" height="225" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/cTGi0zo4-9I" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Through a combination of playtesting and staying true to his original series, Isaac emerged over the course of development as a strong mid-range fighter using the unique weapons and Kinesis/Stasis abilities you&#8217;ll recognize from the Dead Space series (think somewhere between Drake and Jak, with a lot of twists). He has some very interesting long-range options (the Bouncing Bola acts like sniper rifle that bounces off of walls, getting more powerful with each bounce) and he&#8217;s got some great moves up close, but just as in Dead Space, he&#8217;s at his best keeping foes safely out of his face. He can advance or retreat while firing his trusty Plasma Cutter, toss proximity mines, use Stasis attacks to freeze opponents, or spin slowly moving Ripper blades at enemies with a blast of Kinesis torque.  </p>
<p>His level 1 super fires a supercharged stasis burst and then overloads his Plasma Cutter, which can be aimed anywhere, even at very long range. His level 2 super overloads his Kinesis module creating a bubble that launches nearby enemies away at &#8220;terminal&#8221; velocity, and Isaac&#8217;s level 3 takes you into space where he blows the airlock, sucking everyone into space for a quick game of something like &#8220;Asteroids&#8221; where Isaac flies around blasting opponents and space debris into dust.</p>
<div style="clear:both;"></div>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8512132210/" title="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale DLC 2 by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8385/8512132210_a87ea70132_z.jpg" width="640" height="359" alt="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale DLC 2"></a></p>
<p class="center"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8511020159/" title="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale DLC 2 by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8088/8511020159_7e9a66be34_n.jpg" width="312" height="176" alt="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale DLC 2"></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8512132022/" title="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale DLC 2 by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8241/8512132022_e6195cd449_n.jpg" width="312" height="176" alt="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale DLC 2"></a></p>
<p>Finally, what better to welcome new characters than with a new stage? The new &#8220;Graveyard&#8221; level mashes up <a href="http://us.playstation.com/games/medievil-ps3-psp.html?CMP=soc_us__gm_psasbr_dlc2_02_27_13">MediEvil</a>&#8216;s Graveyard opening with&#8230; <a href="http://us.playstation.com/games/the-unfinished-swan-ps3.html?CMP=soc_us__gm_psasbr_dlc2_02_27_13">The Unfinished Swan</a>. While we start in recognizable MediEvil territory (complete with pop-up zombies and a wisecracking gargoyle), the &#8220;Swan&#8221; elements are shown off with a mid-match whiteout and ink splatters that slowly reveal the emerging structures. There are lots of little Swan touches throughout the stage, from the hidden labyrinth, to a balloon, the King, and of course the Unfinished Swan itself makes a cameo.  </p>
<p>So how do All-Stars fans get their hands on the new stuff? The new DLC pack hits the PlayStation Store on March 19th. As before with the recently released &#8220;Fearless&#8221; stage, the new &#8220;Graveyard&#8221; stage will be free in online ranked matches and $1.99 if you want to own it. As for Zeus and Isaac, I&#8217;m very happy to announce they will come to North America FREE as a redeemable downloadable voucher code packed in with the new <a href="http://us.playstation.com/games/god-of-war-ascension-ps3.html?CMP=soc_us__gm_psasbr_dlc2_02_27_13">God of War: Ascension</a>, which launches on March 12th. When Zeus and Isaac Clarke go live in All-Stars on March 19th (one week later),  you can use your code to redeem them any time after they are live. For anybody who doesn&#8217;t pick up God of War: Ascension (but of course that&#8217;s only crazy people&#8211;it&#8217;s got what I think is the most epic final battle in the series’ history), the characters will also be for sale in the PSN Store for $4.99 each.  </p>
<p>I&#8217;ll have some more details coming on the new challengers in the coming weeks &#8212; until then, see you online!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8466637540/" title="PlayStation All-Stars DLC 1 by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8231/8466637540_c6d68635d9_z.jpg" width="640" height="360" alt="PlayStation All-Stars DLC 1"></a></p>
<p>Hey everyone,</p>
<p>We&#8217;re happy to follow up <a href="https://store.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/#!/en-us/games/playstation-all-stars-battle-royale/cid=UP9000-NPUA80316_00-PSABATROYL000001">PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale</a>&#8216;s win for &#8220;Best Fighting Game&#8221; at the DICE Awards (the awards where all of the voting is done by other games industry pros), with a gift to all the players that have supported the project from the start.</p>
<p>I hear from a lot of you guys, and I know you&#8217;ve been waiting patiently&#8230; but that wait ends today!  We&#8217;ve got two new PlayStation All-Stars joining the Battle Royale: Kat from Gravity Rush, and Emmett Graves from Starhawk.  Any fighting fan will tell you how much it means to have new characters joining a game, but it’s even better because &#8212; <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/11/15/first-playstation-all-stars-dlc-kat-and-emmett-join-the-battle-royale-for-free/">as promised</a> &#8212; these DLC characters are totally free for two weeks!</p>
<p>Wait, &#8220;free for two weeks&#8221; sounds funny&#8230;  Does that mean if I download them, after two weeks is up I have to pay?  Nope.  You have a two week window to download the DLC.  If you do, the characters are yours free, forever and ever.  You can play them online, offline, upside down, or however you want.</p>
<p>After the two week window ends, the characters will still be available on <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/category/psn/">PSN</a>, but as paid DLC.  Latecomers can still get Kat and Emmett for $4.99 each, but if you download them in the next two weeks, they are yours free forever.  The only way you would have to pay is if you missed this free offer, but you&#8217;re reading this now, so you won&#8217;t have to be that person.</p>
<p>Okay, so free is cool, but what are these characters are all about anyway?</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8466637142/" title="PlayStation All-Stars DLC 1 by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8240/8466637142_057b236d8f_z.jpg" width="640" height="360" alt="PlayStation All-Stars DLC 1"></a></p>
<p>Just like he did on out on the frontier on Dust, Emmett Graves depends on his tools to survive. Easily one of the most unique additions to the cast, Emmett brings Starhawk&#8217;s &#8220;Build &#038; Battle&#8221; style to the fight, dropping down weapons and structures to help him out.  He can drop shotguns, rocket launchers, new grenades, an AP-building Rift Extractor, or even an automated turret that tracks and blasts at opponents.  If he powers up for a level 3 super, Emmett pilots a deadly Hawk mech, blasting opponents with machine guns, planting aerial mines, or crushing opponents under the Hawk&#8217;s feet, all leading up to a super-ending flying strafe run that lays waste to the entire stage and sends everyone running desperately for cover. </p>
<p>Kat is great for combos and prefers close combat, with more inspired ways to zip around the arenas than anyone in the cast. In addition to the kicks you&#8217;ll remember from Gravity Rush, she also has some crazy gravity attacks, like creating a small black hole to draw in opponents, or a burst to push everyone away, and of course one of the deadliest level 3s in the game.  Kat teams up with her mysterious feline companion Dusty, uniting their powers to attack with frenzied claw slashes, a deadly lunge you can aim in different directions, and a massive black hole that kills anyone unlucky enough to touch its center.</p>
<p>Both characters come with everything that was included with the original launch characters, including a full arcade mode with intro, ending, and rival scenes, a second unlockable costume, an unlockable minion, custom backings and icons, taunts, intro/outros, theme music, and more.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8466637148/" title="PlayStation All-Stars DLC 1 by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8108/8466637148_f7ffeda4c2_z.jpg" width="640" height="360" alt="PlayStation All-Stars DLC 1"></a></p>
<p>In addition to the characters, there is also a new stage called &#8220;Fearless.&#8221;  The fight begins atop a giant rock spire you&#8217;ll remember from Heavenly Sword, before crashing down into the second part of our mashup, where it literally collides with an electrified track from Wipeout. Keep your eyes peeled for cameo character appearances in Heavenly Sword&#8217;s scaffolding, as well as for the Wipeout racers that will send you flying on impact.  You can play this stage for free in ranked online matches, but to play it offline or in player matches, it&#8217;s $1.99.</p>
<p>Coinciding with these new characters, we’re also proud to announce the PlayStation All-Stars: Battle Royale $6,000 tournament powered by Major League Gaming.  For more information on how to enter the tournament, please visit the <a href="http://gamebattles.majorleaguegaming.com/ps3/playstation-all-stars-battle-royale/ladder/playstation-all-stars-ladder/standings">tournament site</a>.</p>
<p>So, to sum up:</p>
<p>Characters?  Free, and yours forever!  But only if you hurry and get them before the two-week window (that starts today) expires.</p>

<p>Kat graces PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale with her presence, as an up-close melee fighter who utilizes her ability to manipulate gravity to turn the tide in battle. Players who enjoyed <a href="http://us.playstation.com/psvita/games-and-media/psv-gravity-rush.html">Gravity Rush</a> on <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/category/ps-vita/">PS Vita</a> know that Kat loves to bend gravity to allow her to dash, slide, and fly from one place to another, and her All-Stars incarnation is no exception. Those who enjoy AP burst combos and varied mobility will definitely <em>gravitate</em> towards Kat.</p>
<p>Emmett Graves from <a href="http://us.playstation.com/games-and-media/games/starhawk-ps3.html">Starhawk</a> joins the fray! He brings his signature “Build &#038; Battle” style from Starhawk, calling down different structures to aid him in battle, including Rift Extractors for AP and Flak Turrets that fire at will. Aside from his default rifle and pistol, Emmett can also call for additional weaponry in the form of shotgun and rocket launcher loadouts, allowing him to adapt to any situation. These loadouts will also change his level 1 super, giving him a total of five supers to choose from!</p>
<div style=float:left;padding:25px;padding-right:35px;padding-left:0px;><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8388360328/" title="PlayStation All-Stars: Emmett by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8331/8388360328_721eba2bc8_n.jpg" width="157" height="320" alt="PlayStation All-Stars: Emmett"></a></div>
<p><iframe width="447" height="251" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/JRUQk1N4e1k" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Rest assured that these DLC characters will be getting the same treatment the rest of our cast was given, including updated official website pages with moves and bios, alternate costumes, Arcade Mode cutscenes, Trial Modes, and more.</p>
<p>Our newest level, Fearless &#8212; a mash-up between Heavenly Sword and Wipeout &#8212; will also be available to purchase in February. Please note that purchasing Fearless will allow you to select the stage offline and in non-ranked lobbies, while those who choose not to purchase it can still enjoy it in ranked games online. </p>
<p>Kat and Emmett will be available to download February 12th, and will be free for the first two weeks, so mark your calendar and get them as soon as possible! We’re not stopping there though. We still have some more All-Stars on the way, so keep your eyes peeled in March for more info!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It’s been a couple of weeks since Seth <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/11/15/first-playstation-all-stars-dlc-kat-and-emmett-join-the-battle-royale-for-free/">let the Kat (and the Emmett!) out of the bag</a>, so I thought I’d stop in and give you guys some insight into the philosophy behind putting these two great characters into <a href="http://us.playstation.com/games-and-media/games/playstation-all-stars-battle-royale-ps3.html?CMP=soc_us__ac_sm_05_21_12">PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale</a>. The team and I attended an event at the Santa Monica Studios last night where we gave media attendees the first hands-on look at our new DLC, including the unveil of a brand new level, so I wanted to give you all a sneak peek at some of their moves and  show off our newest level, Fearless! It’s all exciting stuff that I’m eager to tell you all about, so let’s get started.</p>
<p class="center"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8243120672/" title="PlayStation All-Stars: Gravity Dash by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8485/8243120672_b4a50b841d_n.jpg" width="312" height="176" alt="PlayStation All-Stars: Gravity Dash"></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8243120764/" title="PlayStation All-Stars: Gravity Attraction by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8345/8243120764_29501a3239_n.jpg" width="312" height="176" alt="PlayStation All-Stars: Gravity Attraction"></a></p>
<p><a href="http://us.playstation.com/psvita/games-and-media/psv-gravity-rush.html?CMP=soc_us__ac_sm_05_21_12">Gravity Rush</a> landed on PlayStation Vita earlier this year, introducing us to Kat. Her tremendous gravity powers, combined with a really charming personality made her an instant fan favorite, and thus an obvious candidate for PlayStation All-Stars. When looking at Kat’s play style in Gravity Rush two things immediately stood out to us: her reliance on aerial mobility and her arsenal of powerful kick-based attacks. We felt it was important to use these two elements as the cornerstone of Kat’s play style, and as such, her move set in PlayStation All-Stars makes liberal use of both.</p>
<p>For example, Kat doesn’t have a double jump! Instead, she relies on her Gravity Dash, an eight-direction mini-flight mode to move through the air. This cancellable move affords Kat an unprecedented degree of air mobility and attack potential.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8242052681/" title="PlayStation All-Stars: Kat Level 1 by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8347/8242052681_91c330b314_z.jpg" width="640" height="360" alt="PlayStation All-Stars: Kat Level 1"></a></p>
<p>Another example sees Kat using her powers of gravity manipulation directly against her rivals. Kat creates gravity wells, which draw in nearby players via her Gravity Attraction attack. Kat’s playstyle is such that she’s most effective when close to her opponents, and while her air mobility and varying kicks allow her to get in close pretty well, Gravity Attraction lets her pull her opponents directly to her. Success with Kat will require players to use all of Kat’s abilities in harmony, and Gravity Attraction plays a key role in accomplishing that.</p>
<p>I also want to give you guys a look at one of Kat’s Supers. Kat’s Level 1 Super, Gravity Squeeze, is based on her finishing attack so often used to dispatch the bosses in Gravity Rush. Kat leaps at her foe, stealing a giant orb of energy. As she destroys the orb, her victim explodes. If anyone is caught within the resulting blast of energy, they explode too! This is a very powerful Super, but one that will require Kat players to be clever in order to score maximum points.</p>
<p>This year also saw the release of Starhawk, a game set in the wild galactic frontier where the quest for Rift Energy comes with a terrible human cost. Starhawk’s main protagonist, Emmett Graves, is a man all too familiar with that cost, his body forever transformed by exposure to the toxic Rift Energy. Emmett makes wide use of varying weapons based on advanced technology, most notably through Starhawk’s Build &#038; Battle system. It’s this particular mechanic that made Emmett such a compelling character to the PlayStation All-Stars Team.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8242052545/" title="PlayStation All-Stars: Shotgun Mine by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8337/8242052545_60067dace0_z.jpg" width="640" height="360" alt="PlayStation All-Stars: Shotgun Mine"></a></p>
<p>The first of Emmett’s two most important Build &#038; Battle moves is his Aerial M.A.W Rocket Launcher and Tetranite Grenade Bunker move. This allows Emmett to call down a bunker that when used, completely changes his weapon loadout. The Rocket Launcher gives Emmett access to a long range, powerful, aimable projectile. The grenade launcher provides an equally devastating attack, both in terms of AP generation and versatility, and is used primarily to stop the advancement of opponents in front of Emmett. Both weapons are somewhat slow moving, but more than make up for it in terms of sheer firepower.</p>
<p>The second, but equally important Build &#038; Battle move that I want to tell you about is the Union Shotgun and R-Secs Proximity Mine Bunker move. Like the previous Build &#038; Battle move, a separate bunker is brought in from low orbit, this time with ample shotgun and mine ammunition. Choosing this loadout supplies Emmett with devastatingly quick-hitting, short-range firepower via the shotgun as well as excellent space control through persistent mines. Neither weapon offers the range of the rocket launcher or grenade, so good Emmett players will need to be able to master alternating between both loadouts depending on the situation.</p>
<p class="center"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8243120376/" title="PlayStation All-Stars: Rocket Grenade by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8059/8243120376_003dda550d_n.jpg" width="312" height="176" alt="PlayStation All-Stars: Rocket Grenade"></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8242052775/" title="PlayStation All-Stars: Hawk by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8350/8242052775_a77316b12e_n.jpg" width="312" height="176" alt="PlayStation All-Stars: Hawk"></a></p>
<p>What better piece of anti-personnel weaponry is there in the Starhawk universe than the amazingly versatile Hawk? As the ultimate Level 3 Super, Emmett takes control of a Hawk in mech configuration, and is able to chase down his opponents with terrifying machine gun fire and tricky floating mines. And when all else fails, Emmett can transform the Hawk into flight mode and rain down a final hail of bullets that’s tough to survive. It&#8217;s an impressive Super, befitting of a universe filled with amazing technology.</p>
<p>Before I go, I want to give you all a look at what we have planned for our newest level, which during development has earned the codename Fearless. Fearless is a mash-up level that sees the fantasy world of Heavenly Sword meet the futuristic race tracks of Wipeout. In the short time we’ve been working on it, Fearless has become one of the team’s favorite levels, and we think you’ll see why.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8243120866/" title="PlayStation All-Stars: Fearless Top by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8343/8243120866_12f301e0f6_z.jpg" width="640" height="360" alt="PlayStation All-Stars: Fearless Top"></a></p>
<p>The action in Fearless starts out atop a high column supported by gigantic ropes, creating a scene pulled straight from the world of Heavenly Sword. Our players will battle it out on this high column under the watchful eye of the forces of Bohan. It’s a medium-sized space, free of any platforms, and offers some of the most uninterrupted calm you can find in PlayStation All-Stars.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8242053449/" title="PlayStation All-Stars: Fearless Bottom by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8201/8242053449_239b0b3d5d_z.jpg" width="640" height="360" alt="PlayStation All-Stars: Fearless Bottom"></a></p>
<p>In the distance though, the hum of anti-gravity racing can be heard, and over the course of the match, a familiar floating race materializes. Soon, the battle is interrupted as stray fire from the famous racing ships of Wipeout hits the fighting column, and our fighters come crashing down into a new, more vertical part of the level, the race track cutting straight through the fight space! Any fighter unlucky enough to get knocked into the track or in the way of one of these terrific ships will pay the cost &#8211; literally &#8211; by receiving a hefty AP penalty. Knowing how to best leverage your character’s moves while avoiding the dangers of the race track are key tools to mastering your fear, and mastering Fearless.</p>
<p>We’ve still got a long way to go to complete Kat, Emmett, and our new level Fearless, but I hope you enjoyed this early look into where things are going. We think these new characters and level fit well into the gameplay already established in PlayStation All-Stars, while at the same time expanding the notions of what’s possible within our fight system. We can’t wait for you guys to get your hands on this stuff early next year, but there’s still quite a bit of work left to do before we can call anything finished. With that said, I’ll get back to work.</p>

When <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/">PlayStation</a> asked us at Robot Chicken to literally "play" with their all-star line-up of characters, we were not about to say no. <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/playstation-all-stars-battle-royale/">PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale</a> gave us an opportunity in the writers' room to have the geek discussions we all love to have. Who would destroy who in a fight to the death, or wherever they end up going after being defeated. To make this animated short, we got one of our Head Writers Douglas Goldstein and our super gamer writers Mike Fasolo and Rachel Bloom (check out her geek videos on YouTube) to create this fun off-hours scenario for all our favorite PlayStation characters. Then we got our super geek director/writer Zeb Wells (who y'all may know from his comic book writing history) to dive in and direct. Magic in a bottle.

		<description><![CDATA[Throughout its almost 20-year history, PlayStation has allowed us as players to explore new worlds, triumph over adversaries, and realize our dreams of rapping superstardom. Three years ago, <a href="http://www.superbotentertainment.com/">SuperBot Entertainment</a>, <a href="http://bluepointgames.com/">BluePoint Games</a>, and <a href="http://www.worldwidestudios.net/santamonica">Sony Santa Monica Studio</a> set out to create a game that pays tribute to the amazing memories we as PlayStation fans have all experienced together.

<a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/playstation-all-stars-battle-royale/">PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale</a> is a celebration of the PlayStation history: its characters, its universes, and most importantly, its fans. And what better way to celebrate that with some good old-fashioned butt-kicking! In PlayStation All-Stars, up to four players can simultaneously control any of the 20 great PlayStation characters featured on our roster, including <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/08/07/playstation-all-stars-kratos-and-radec-strategy-videos/">Kratos</a> from God of War, Nathan Drake from UNCHARTED...]]></description>

<p>Throughout its almost 20-year history, PlayStation has allowed us as players to explore new worlds, triumph over adversaries, and realize our dreams of rapping superstardom. Three years ago, <a href="http://www.superbotentertainment.com/">SuperBot Entertainment</a>, <a href="http://bluepointgames.com/">BluePoint Games</a>, and <a href="http://www.worldwidestudios.net/santamonica">Sony Santa Monica Studio</a> set out to create a game that pays tribute to the amazing memories we as PlayStation fans have all experienced together.

<p><a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/playstation-all-stars-battle-royale/">PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale</a> is a celebration of the PlayStation history: its characters, its universes, and most importantly, its fans. And what better way to celebrate that with some good old-fashioned butt-kicking! In PlayStation All-Stars, up to four players can simultaneously control any of the 20 great PlayStation characters featured on our roster, including <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/08/07/playstation-all-stars-kratos-and-radec-strategy-videos/">Kratos</a> from God of War, Nathan Drake from UNCHARTED, Sackboy from LittleBigPlanet, Big Daddy from BioShock, and Dante from DmC Devil May Cry, and fight it out brawler-style on one of our 14 levels, each one created by mashing up two PlayStation worlds &#8212; like the topsy-turvy world of LocoRoco mixed with the war-torn battlefields of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance.</p>
<p><iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/5Q0MZuEE1JM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>While our Versus Mode, which pits player against player (against player, against player) will undoubtedly provide endless memorable experiences, venture into Arcade Mode to find out what brings all of these great characters together into one crazy world. And if you’re strong enough, discover what it’s like to face the oldest and most powerful PlayStation All-Star, <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/11/08/playstation-all-stars-goes-gold-opening-cinematic-and-final-boss-unveiled/">Polygon Man</a>. Or, head over into the Combat Trials Mode to learn the ins and outs of the Battle Royale combat system. Insight into the various fight mechanics and individual character instructions come together in the form of a fun yet educational mode. And when you’re ready, jump online to challenge the world in either our Tournament or Quick Match Modes, which offer what we feel is an online multiplayer experience virtually indistinguishable from offline play.</p>
<p>Available on both PS3 and PS Vita (digital and retail), PlayStation All-Stars takes full advantage of the interconnectivity between the two platforms via Cross Play, allowing players to battle it out against one another on either device. Owners of both a PS3 and PS Vita can even transfer their saves from one machine to the other, allowing PlayStation All-Stars to be played wherever the fans want to play it. And best of all, if you purchase the PS3 version of the game, <em>you get the PS Vita version at no extra cost!</em> There’s no reason not to take advantage of such a great deal. As a friendly reminder, in order to redeem your digital PS Vita copy form the PS3 on-disc benefit, you’ll need to ensure your PS3 system is updated to the latest firmware, version 4.31. </p>
<p>Today marks the start of a great adventure for us &#8211; one in which we as developers get to celebrate with you as the fans. We couldn’t have made this game without you, and I hope you all enjoy playing the game as much as we enjoyed making it. See you online!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[What? Me again? Wasn't I just here to let you know that<a href="http://us.playstation.com/games-and-media/games/playstation-all-stars-battle-royale-ps3.html?CMP=soc_us__ac_sm_05_21_12">PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale</a> had <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/11/08/playstation-all-stars-goes-gold-opening-cinematic-and-final-boss-unveiled/">gone gold</a>?

Have you ever wondered what dev teams do after a game goes gold? If all is going well, often times they get down to business with DLC. And in fact that's exactly what we have begun.

I'm here today to announce the first DLC characters that will be joining the All-Stars roster: Kat from <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/gravity-rush/">Gravity Rush</a>, and <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/starhawk/">Starhawk</a>'s Emmett Graves!]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style=float:right;padding:20px;padding-right:0px;><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8186494241/" title="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale: Kat by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8484/8186494241_5ed1249324.jpg" width="240" height="364" alt="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale: Kat"></a></div>
<p>What? Me again? Wasn&#8217;t I just here to let you know that <a href="http://us.playstation.com/games-and-media/games/playstation-all-stars-battle-royale-ps3.html?CMP=soc_us__ac_sm_05_21_12">PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale</a> had <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/11/08/playstation-all-stars-goes-gold-opening-cinematic-and-final-boss-unveiled/">gone gold</a>?</p>
<p>Have you ever wondered what dev teams do after a game goes gold? If all is going well, often times they get down to business with DLC. And in fact that&#8217;s exactly what we have begun. I&#8217;m here today to announce the first DLC characters that will be joining the All-Stars roster: Kat from <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/gravity-rush/">Gravity Rush</a>, and <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/starhawk/">Starhawk</a>&#8216;s Emmett Graves!</p>
<p>In addition to the signature weapons you&#8217;ll remember from his duels with the Outcasts on Dust, Emmett&#8217;s playstyle will also utilize Starhawk&#8217;s unique <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/02/29/starhawk-new-build-to-kill-trailer/">&#8220;Build and Battle&#8221;</a> system, calling down help from the sky. </p>
<p>Kat&#8217;s approach turns gravity on its head with some mind-bending new ways to move as she positions herself for her unique brand of aerial assault. Together, they make up one of the most original duos in All-Stars.</p>
<p>These DLC All-Stars still have a long way to go before they&#8217;re ready to be shown off, but we wanted to let you know what the team will be working on now that we&#8217;ve gone gold with the main game, and that you can look forward to playing them&#8230; for free! </p>
<div style=float:left;padding:20px;padding-left:0px;padding-top:10px;><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/playstationblog/8187534744/" title="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale: Emmett by PlayStation.Blog, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8345/8187534744_b26ea8e0a8.jpg" width="190" height="399" alt="PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale: Emmett"></a></div>
<p>Yes, you heard that right. We&#8217;re very happy to announce these first two DLC characters will be free to everyone for the first two weeks once they are available for download early next year.</p>
<p>That may sound a little tricky, so let me be clear: once Kat and Emmett are finished, we&#8217;ll put them up for download. They&#8217;ll be totally free for two weeks. The only limit is that you have a two-week window to claim the characters. Once you have Kat and Emmett, they are yours forever. That may sound like a lot to remember, so don’t worry, we’ll be back closer to their release to remind you of all these details. </p>
<p>Everyone at SuperBot, Bluepoint, and Santa Monica Studio has tried hard not only to make a great game, but also to keep the fans very firmly in mind, offering the most we can wherever we get the chance. So far we&#8217;ve offered exclusive free pre-order costumes, an amazing digital version for PS Vita at no cost when you buy the PS3 version, frame-accurate cross-play, and now Kat and Emmett coming soon for free!</p>
<p>We&#8217;ll have more information about these characters and more DLC news coming soon, so stay tuned here for more announcements, and thanks again to everyone that has supported us as we prepare to cross the finish line. Come join the party on November 20th as PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale launches, and I&#8217;ll see you online!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Hey PlayStation Nation! A couple of weeks ago we released <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/10/22/playstation-all-stars-come-to-life-in-new-short-film-from-creators-of-michael/">"The All-Star"</a> for all of the <a href="http://us.playstation.com/games-and-media/games/playstation-all-stars-battle-royale-ps3.html?CMP=soc_us__ac_sm_05_21_12">PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale</a> fans out there. From the more than five million views it got in two days, we're guessing that you liked it. For the hardcore PlayStation fans, we layered in more than 30 Easter eggs referencing the playable characters, levels, and some classic PlayStation heritage.
 
People have been decoding Easter eggs in the comments, and our friends over at IGN recently filmed a <a href="http://www.ign.com/videos/2012/10/23/rewind-theater-playstation-all-stars-battle-royale-live-action-trailer">Rewind Theater of “The All-Star”</a> the same day it came out. IGN did a great job finding a handful of our Easter eggs -- but they didn’t find all of them! So we’re turning to our fans to help uncover more, as well as relive some key moments in PlayStation history, with a Trivia tweet up.
