(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Sony provided more information on their crossover brawler PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale during their E3 press conference tonight. For starters, they revealed that it'll be coming to the PS Vita as well as the PS3.

The PS3 and Vita versions will be integrated for multiplayer. Vita players can face off against PS3 gamers. Up to four players can face off in multiplayer battles, and they can be any mix of PS Vita and PS3 systems.

Your save files will also carry over from one version to another. This allows you to start playing on Vita and then pop over to PS3.

Sony also announced two new characters for Battle Royale during the presentation. Uncharted's Nathan Drake and BioShock's Big Daddy will both be joining the fray. Drake was a no-brainer considering his iconic status on the PS3. Big Daddy's a bit of surprise, though, considering he's from a multiplatform franchise. He's more recognizable than some of the characters announced so far, though.

Battle Royale will arrive later this year. Plenty more time for Sony to slowly announce the rest of the roster.

I would definitely use either of those characters. I really hope this game ends up being good.

Great announcement by Sony. Big Daddy made me very excited for this game.

good game... i think the best game, but copy nintendo-shit...

Why does Sony try to copy Nintendo whenever they can /facepalm. If they're trying to appeal to the casual crowd then at least be original...
