Hey everyone. We’re happy to follow up PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale‘s win for “Best Fighting Game” at the DICE Awards (the awards where all of the voting is done by other games industry pros), with a gift to all the players that have supported the project from the start.

I hear from a lot of you guys, and I know you’ve been waiting patiently… but that wait ends tomorrow! We’ve got two new PlayStation All-Stars joining the Battle Royale: Kat from Gravity Rush, and Emmett Graves from Starhawk.

Any fighting fan will tell you how much it means to have new characters joining a game, but it’s even better because – as promised – these DLC characters are totally free for two weeks!

Hey everybody, Dylan from Lightbox here to announce that we are  “GO” for our global release of the Starhawk 1.03 Update today at 8.00pm BST!

I am saying “GO” as if I were a super-cool NASA scientist in the Curiosity control room! While the release of our 1.03 update pales in comparison to the massive achievement of landing an SUV-sized robot on Mars (thanks NASA); the 1.03 release will nonetheless make many Earthlings very happy!

So they share that in common at least, right?!?!

“OK Dylan, what’s the patch got?”, says the snarky gamer from the dark, back corner of the internet.

Tons of new stuff! There is player requested features, increased level-cap, bug-fixes, and of course two brand new FREE maps on the Planet of Cypress! Here’s the breakdown of everything we developed for you guys in the 1.03 update.

I hope you are all excited about the release of Starhawk, which is available in PAL regions from today!

Release dates:

• Mainland Europe 9th May
• Australia and New Zealand 10th May
• UK and Ireland 11th May

If you missed the previous posts, this game has been developed by LightBox Interactive who are made up of the guys who created the classic PSN shooter Warhawk on PS3. This can be seen as very much a spiritual successor to that classic…
