Third Mysterious Trailer Points To PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale Announcement

Sony has released a third mysterious trailer hyping an Oct. 23 final reveal for “something,” this time giving more reasons than ever to believe the announcement will be related to upcoming four-player brawler PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale.

I have to admit that, at this point, I’m getting pretty excited for whatever Sony has in store. The developers at SuperBot have stated numerous times that the full roster for their game has already been revealed, but I can’t help but wonder if the team has a few surprises left in the tank.

Over the weekend we showed off the first two trailers in this promotional series. The first clip, “Reload,” featured the sound of oncoming footsteps mixed with an electric crackle that hints at inFamous’s Cole MacGrath. The second clip, “The Arrival,” gives a brief, shadowy glimpse of Uncharted hero Nathan Drake. Both trailers also featured several nods to other titles like Devil May Cry and Ratchet and Clank.

Now a third video has been released, giving gamers a brief glimpse at “The Aftermath.”



Once again, PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale references abound. Eagle-eyed viewers have spotted Sly Cooper’s cane hanging on a wall, a tattoo sporting an image that relates to Metal Gear Rising’s Raiden, cake that points to Fat Princess, Sweet Tooth’s notorious weapon of choice and more.

But what really catches my attention is the fact that our mysterious lady is walking down the hall with a set of keys in hand. Perhaps she’s about to let someone out of a cell? Or maybe I’m still just reading way too much into this.

Whatever the big announcement is, we only have one more day before we find out what, exactly, it has all been leading up to.
