Although rumors have been swirling for months, it's official today. Jak and Daxter from the franchise of the same name and Cole MacGrath from the Infamous series are playable characters in PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale

Jak and Daxter come as a package deal -- with the fuzzy Daxter on Jak's shoulder. They, of course, are the main protagonists in the Jak and Daxter series created by Naughty Dog. Jak's got his traditional guns and eco powers in PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale. Cole is a superhero (or supervillain depending on how you play) with electricity-based powers. In All-Stars, Cole will have his abilities, including a super move where he uses the ionic vortex to clear the screen.These characters were rumored for a while, so it might be worth keeping an eye on the IGN Wiki for Unconfirmed PlayStation All-Stars characters . Look for more fighter reveals as we approach PlayStation All-Stars' October release date.
