In addition, Fat Princess features bot support, a tutorialized campaign mode, a survive-the-waves mode, and a lot of maps.įat Princess did have some serious network issues for the first week and a half of the game’s release, which unfortunately had an impact on the game’s performance with both critics and gamers alike, but around the tenth or eleventh after the game’s release, everything ran just fine.

While we have a lot more of these types of games today (like the three indie games mentioned earlier), the only other combo multiplayer PS3 games I can think of before Fat Princess were LittleBigPlanet and Resistance 2, though I’m sure there were a few others. In the case of Fat Princess, this was 4 players on one system joining a game with up to 28 other online players.

The release of Fat Princess was only 2.5 years into the PS3’s lifespan, and the PS2 was still receiving a lot of support, so online pickings were slimmer compared to the end of the system’s life.Īnother notable thing about Fat Princess was its 2010 update that not only enable local multiplayer, but combo multiplayer – when I say combo multiplayer, I mean a game that can have 2+ players on the same system joining an online game. At the time though, a lot of online PS3 games were more serious shooters, racing games, and fighting games – to put things into perspective, Motorstorm: Pacific Rift, Resistance 2, and Street Fighter IV had released the year prior. These days we have a lot of quirky indie/small scale online multiplayer games – Ultimate Chicken Horse, Duck Game, Gang Beasts, etc. In comparison, the biggest downloadable titles on PS3 before the release of Fat Princess were probably Everyday Shooter, Ratchet & Clank: Quest for Booty, Flower, and PAIN (PAIN was packaged with some PS3s), though Battlefield 1943 did release a few weeks before Fat Princess (both were July 2009). For many, Fat Princess may very well have been their first downloadable title on the console – many of the big indie games at the time were PC/Xbox 360 only, like Braid, Castle Crashers, N+, and World of Goo (World of Goo was PC/Wii only). At the time, there was a clear divide between AA/AAA retail games and downloadable indie/small scale titles. Unfortunately there’s no hint of any kind of a sequel, but I’d like to recognize the original for being a unique and feature-rich early downloadable PS3 game: I’m going to give a brief overview of the game and its place in the market in 2009.įat Princess is a 16v16 team-based capture the flag-type game that first released in 2009 as a $15 downloadable title exclusively for the PS3. Fat Princess did receive a follow-up spinoff in the form of a Diablo-esque top-down action adventure game in 2015, but reception for the game was middling, and Fat Princess has since seemed to taper off from Sony’s marketing. Fat Princess was also a playable character in 2012’s PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, which is interesting since in the actual Fat Princess you play as the soldiers and workers protecting her. It was a fun and unique title commissioned by Sony and still hasn’t been replicated in any game I’ve played.

It won’t be split-screen though and players will really have to work together rather than running off on their own.Fat Princess was a small scale title published by Sony Computer Entertainment and developed by Titan Studios, who went defunct in 2011 after only releasing Fat Princess on Jand its PSP version in 2010, Fat Princess: Fistful of Cake. This means that up to four friends can play together on the same console. Gathering valuable feedback from the Fat Princess community, the developers have even added same-screen co-op into the re-release. The Pirate and Ninja classes have melee as well as ranged attacks, while the Giant being weak, can gobble up enemies capturing a little bit of their life. The new Fat Roles DLC for Fat Princess adds three new character classes – Pirate, Ninja and Giant.

The development team has not just added a patch for the game, but re-released the entire game. Now Deborah Mars, Managing Director at SCEA Santa Monica Studio writes in a PlayStation Blog post that Fat Princess has just got a really good deal on the PlayStation Network along with some downloadable content. The twist is that enemies can keep feeding her, making it impossible to get her out. Fat Princess is the downloadable video game for the PlayStation Network released last July in which players must rescue their princess bringing her back to their team base.
