Both characters will be free for their first two weeks of availability, though their price point after the fact remains unknown.<br /><br />As we learned during their <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2012/12/04/playstation-all-stars-adding-kat-and-emmett-graves-plus-heavenl/">initial reveal</a> last December, both characters make heavy usage of the abilities their own games are based on, with Kat (above) manipulating gravity and Emmett summoning mining equipment, as seen <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2013/01/17/kat-emmett-join-playstation-all-stars-battle-royale-feb-12/#continued">after the break</a>. Both characters sport the same amenities as the original cast: extra costumes, full arcade stories and trial modes, etc.<br /><br />The previously announced <em>Heavenly Sword</em>/<em>Wipeout</em> stage has also been slated for February, though a specific release date or price was not provided. We're still holding out for a ship from <em>Wipeout</em> as a playable character.<p><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2013/01/18/kat-emmett-join-playstation-all-stars-battle-royale-feb-12/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Kat, Emmett join PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale Feb. 12</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2013/01/18/kat-emmett-join-playstation-all-stars-battle-royale-feb-12/">Kat, Emmett join PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale Feb. 12</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Fri, 18 Jan 2013 16:30:00 EST.

The character pack containing both will be free for a limited time when it arrives sometime early next year.<br /><br />SuperBot's director Omar Kendall also premiered a brand new level for the game, combining the worlds of <a href="http://joystiq.com/game/heavenly-sword"><em>Heavenly Sword</em></a> and <a href="http://joystiq.com/game/wipeout"><em>Wipeout</em></a> into a beautiful but precarious environment. The actual pricing (and release date) for the level hasn't yet been decided.<br /><br />While letting us play a little bit with each character, Kendall talked to us about the reaction to <em>PlayStation All-Stars</em>, why these two characters are the first to make the DLC cut, and what else SuperBot has planned.<div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/playstation-all-stars-battle-royale-kat-and-emmett-graves/">PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale: Kat and Emmett Graves</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/playstation-all-stars-battle-royale-kat-and-emmett-graves/#5478161"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2012/12/psashots017_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/playstation-all-stars-battle-royale-kat-and-emmett-graves/#5478162"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2012/12/psashots015_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/playstation-all-stars-battle-royale-kat-and-emmett-graves/#5478163"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2012/12/psashots016_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/playstation-all-stars-battle-royale-kat-and-emmett-graves/#5478164"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2012/12/psashots012_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/playstation-all-stars-battle-royale-kat-and-emmett-graves/#5478165"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2012/12/psashots013_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><p><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2012/12/04/playstation-all-stars-adding-kat-and-emmett-graves-plus-heavenl/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>PlayStation All-Stars adding Kat and Emmett Graves, plus Heavenly Sword/Wipeout level</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2012/12/04/playstation-all-stars-adding-kat-and-emmett-graves-plus-heavenl/">PlayStation All-Stars adding Kat and Emmett Graves, plus Heavenly Sword/Wipeout level</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Tue, 04 Dec 2012 08:30:00 EST.
