PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale Characters Play Super Smash Bros. Brawl: Sony vs. Nintendo
Posted in: Today's ChiliIf you’ve seen media of Sony’s upcoming fighting game PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, then you know that it’s quite similar to Nintendo’s Smash. Bros. series. The biggest difference is most likely with their rosters, which are each filled with company exclusives. But a group of Wii modders managed to enjoy the best of both worlds.
Members of the Smash Bros. mod site Brawl Vault recreated the characters that will be available in Sony’s game so they can play with them on Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Now they can have Nathan Drake, Sackboy and Sly Cooper go up against Mario, Link, Pikachu. But that’s not all. They also made characters that are not in the current revealed roster of Sony’s brawler, including Commander Shepard, Isaac Clarke and Tomba. Below is a gameplay video uploaded by YouTuber sulleh1:
Here’s the second part of the video:
Unfortunately I don’t know enough about Smash Bros. so I don’t know if these are just character skins or if they have unique moves as well. In any case, you can download these characters for free. You’ll have to mod an ISO of Super Smash Bros. Brawl to get these characters into the game though. I suggest you head to Brawl Vault not just for the character files but for instructions as well.

If you’re looking forward to playing Smash Bros. on the upcoming Wii U, it seems that you can expect to get your hands on new characters, as opposed to seeing a scaled back roster list (for non-Nintendo characters) as was earlier stated. This was revealed by Super Smash Bros. creator Masahiro Sakurai himself who was quoted as saying, “It’s fun making new skills for new characters,” during the Computer Entertainment Developers Conference in Tokyo over the weekend. Of course the characters that will be making their way into the Wii U Smash Bros. was not revealed, but given that the upcoming game will be a joint effort with Namco Bandai, what sort of characters are you looking forward to making an appearance? Let us know in the comments below! As it stands there is also no word on when the game will be released, but given that the Wii U has yet to receive an official release date, we guess we will have no choice but to wait. However we will be keeping our eyes peeled so be sure to check back with us later for more updates.
