Sony Smash Bros. Brawl, as the game effectively is, has been an interesting venture. Sony’s never been known for their strong stable of iconic mascots; as close as Crash Bandicoot came, he soon went to other consoles. Parappa The Rapper had a nice try, and the pair of cats Kuro and Toro have just not successfully reached America.

Sackboy’s come close, admittedly.

Originally planned for release this month, PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale had been delayed to November. Today, PlayStation Plus members can download the free beta for their PlayStation 3, and all PlayStation Vita users can do the same. Beta characters are limited to Kratos, Sweet Tooth, Sly Cooper, Fat Princess, Parappa, and Colonel Radec (the Killzone guy for most gamers), and there are only two stages.

The beta will be open to everybody October 23rd.
