PlayStation Plus: Skullgirls Encore Free for Members

Skullgirls Encore boasts some really unique characters. This fighter’s roster is comprised of mainly females (hence, “Skullgirls” and not “Skullpeople”) and includes really oddball personalities. There’s Cerebella, an orphaned circus performer who happens to have a kick-ass living hat with massive arms, the feline-esque Ms. Fortune who cannot die since she swallowed a Life Gem (making dismemberment part of her playstyle), and Double, an amorphous character that can transform into anything, but usually hangs out in as a nun. The game has a fantastic art style, and the Encore version includes gameplay updates, balance changes and new stages and music.

We’ve got some discounts below for our members as well, including a sale on content for some Free to Play titles like DC Universe Online, Blacklight Retribution and Dust 514.

You can download Skullgirls Encore after the PlayStation Store updates tomorrow, May 13th.

  • nothing good this week. Hope theres a possible day one discount on Drakengard 3 next tuesday.

  • hmm was hoping Dead or Alive 5 to be free oh well.

  • Hitman Trilogy will def take a shot at my wallet. I’d also like to see Kristine try to incorporate “dismemberment” into more posts.

  • LightOfValkyrie

    Been looking forward to this one.

  • The poll doesn’t work.

  • lol, “free to play sale”…one of those rare times when I dont give a damn about the PSN sales. Well, it had to happen.

  • Skullgirls is a nice game for people who don’t already have it. Wasn’t really a fan of the online mode but the single player was fun at times. Can’t wait till next month to see the new plus additions hopefully we can see beyond two souls join. Also twisted metal or mortal kombat would be nice ones to get added. I have a feeling all stars will be added which I already have and in my eyes 9 out of 10 people already have the game.

  • Pretty cool got plus for a month i wanted to try skullgirls.

  • Which four DLC packs come with the ultimate DCUO starter pack?

  • Nothing for me this week. Let’s hope June is a much better month for the Vita IGC though

  • Oh, Tomb Raider is almost 13 bucks for PS3 but still full 60 bucks retail price for PS4… I hope the PS4 sees more discounts and games soon. :(

  • Give us all the games on the first Tuesday of the month! Is very boring wait for the game you want for weeks.

  • I whish the doa dlc was for vita toó

  • Dark Souls as a free game for PS Plus would be nice.

  • God enough of the indies with plus already!
    I’m not trying to sound like a whiny little kid but seriously, indies are the worst. Almost all indies are awful little mobile quality titles upscaled in higher res for consoles.

    Stop with the indies! So far, April and May plus updates have NOT been impressive. Who runs Plus anyways? Why do we keep getting these low quality games?

    June is hopefully at least decent or else I don’t think I’ll be renewing!

  • INGENIERO_AZTECA

    nothing interesting.

  • The sales suck.

  • And whats up with this “Sale”?

    The only decent sale is the Tomb Raider one. The others are pretty laughable.

  • nothing good this week :-(

  • Well, lets wait for the next week

  • nice week, but im still waiting for final fantasy x / x-2 hd discount

  • @2 There is a free to play version available.

  • Nothing of any interest for me. Just waiting to get my hands on Soul Sacrifice Delta. Still not happy its digital only!

  • I hope the next ps4 game is a retail game. Hell, I’d even take NBA Live

  • Meh. Not a damn thing. GIVE ME HELLDIVERS!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I might go for Serious Sam, never did get BFE on PC.

  • what?! no puppeteer yet? fine! i will earn a platinum in pro football just too show you!! still cant believe puppeteer is free, amazing ps+… just amazing, i am ps+ member forever.

  • I wish you could edit replies. This is irritating having to post numerous times. Oh well. Anyways:

    If I may, I want to recommend something:
    You should stop giving us indies. Even if you have to give us “Older” titles, that would be much preferred to these games. Indies feel like mobile games with a high res graphic engine on a console. I hate them, and I know many others do too. You should see my poll on the PS Forums general section about the IGC. Many said the same.
    Hopefully you actually take feedback to heart. I look forward to June’s plus update only because I am hoping its actually good, unlike this month and April which has been awful.

    Also, like last year and the year before, will june completely swap out the entire IGC for different titles? I hope so.

  • Fantastic sale guys!

    DC Universe Online is my favorite MMO, but I haven’t picked up any expansions yet due to deleting the game off my hard drive to save space. . looks like the perfect time to collect for whenever i can upgrade my hard drive or get a ps4!

  • The one time I wish a fighter existed on the Vita. Loved getting BlazBlue:CSE though, so can’t complain.

  • Do you know if we get it in EU?

  • Hi Kristine, how are you doing?
    I just have a little question for you, do you know anything about some offer or something like that in Motorstorm Apocalypse?
    I’m eager to try out my new 3D Bravia and I’ve been told that MS:A is by far, one of the best titles to show off 3D.

    Best,
    A proud Sony User.

  • Disappointing week. Not interested in Skull Girls much, and the F2P sale is an awful idea.

  • AssaultMonkey150

    Next week we get Transistor and Wolfenstein, the week after that we get Watch Dogs.

    Maybe this week they should have had some decent sales, it looks like a freaking summer month drought :)

  • I was just thinking I should wait for a sale to buy some Warframe platinum…Sony stop reading my mind! Might pick up some Zcoins too for Blacklight, both seem like a pretty good deal.

  • I’m a Vita owner, and I still haven’t seen anything that convinces me on becoming a plus member. There sure are a few games that called my attention and that I don’t own… but nothing extraordinaire.

    give us a good sale already! PS3 got the amazing flash sale last week, and all we got was Guacamelee from the japan golden week, and nothing else…

    Stop giving us the “you bought a joystick, deal with it” treatment…

  • bt1234567892010

    @ccrogers15

    Exactly WHAT Indies have you been playing? A lot of them surpass AAA games in every way.

  • rafael_martines

    Killer is Dead for free next month

    Pls SONY, Pls!!!

  • Apologies but im waiting from 100 days for AC4 FIFA14 on discounted price.And every weekend you put some useless stuffs.Where is the ps4 good deals.Im on ps4 boss and many many people to.So give us discounts please .Thanks in advance (@)^_^(@)¬

  • A F2P sale? What a waste of a weekly update.

  • charleschannels

    Nothing worthwhile. But… hey, cannot thank you enough for Stick It To The Man. Best indie game I’ve ever played!

  • Can we get some larger AAA Plus games again instead of indie, indie, indie, indie…..? It’s becoming clear why Sony loves indies so much. Cheap fodder to offer up on Plus.

  • Dear Kristine, Can you please ask PS Store team members to have a Resident Evil sale ):

  • Hi Kristine, Please ask Sony if they can give us another Resident Evil sale

  • Warframe Platinum sale is what I’ve been waiting for :)

  • Sweet guys! Just re subbed for plus a little while a go and thought I missed out on Skullgirls. Might go for Hitman Absolution, heard it was pretty good and I haven’t played a Hitman game in a long time.

  • What sets these two apart? “DC Universe Online: Ultimate Edition Starter Pack” and “DC Universe Online: Ultimate Edition”. S slight price difference.

    I might get into this game, is this cross buy between PS3 and PS4? Is there a monthy subscription or is this a “lifetime” purchase price?

    Thanks.

    • Kristine Steimer

      Just looked into this for you and found that the The Ultimate Editions are different platforms, hence different prices. The PS4 one is slightly cheaper than PS3. Your more DCUO specific questions can probably be answered by the game’s official Twitter feed @DCUO.

    • Kristine Steimer

      Actually, good news, the price for the Ultimate Editions is a little lower than we first announced. It’s actually $13.99 for both platforms for Plus members.

  • Yeeesh! May has been a lame PLUS month. At least for me. Not interested in Free to Play sales or Skull Girls. Looking forward to June. Not like I dont have enough games to play already. :)

  • “Building on its established game systems tried and tested by veteran and casual fighting game fans alike, ”

    That made me laugh, the fancy way to say fighting game fans have played the title.

  • I’ll give Skullgirls a shot, not into fighters, but I think it deserves a play through.
