Sony may be ready to take a gamble on greenlighting a follow-up to so-so fan-service fighting game, PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, after two job ads for positions at developer SuperBot Entertainment were spotted.

The role of game designer asks candidates for “a near encyclopedic knowledge of modern games, with emphasis on PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale”, along with “knowledge of fighting games, their systems and mechanics a serious plus”.

Meanwhile the role of art director states the successful candidate will be working on the All-Stars franchise: “A project such as PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, which by definition brings together elements ranging from an incredibly wide range of artistic styles, requires a strong and unifying vision to present a cohesive and polished product.”

PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale made little impact on the UK chart, but Sony seems pleased, telling IGN: “Sales are right on target with expectations and we are happy with them.” Perhaps a sequel is on the way.
