PlayStation Plus Offers Mercenary Kings for Free During April

April's Instant Game Collection for PlayStation Plus has been revealed and we can hardly complain about its offerings. Not only are a bunch of really sweet PS3 titles like Batman: Arkham City and Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse, and PS Vita titles such as Pixeljunk Monsters Ultimate HD on this list, but a PS4 game that hasn't even released yet: Mercenary Kings.

Mercenary Kings Launches (For Real) in 2014

Redemption draws near for those of you who have not yet experienced the chaos of Mercenary Kings on Steam. Developer Tribute Games hopes the four player co-op 2d shooter gets a proper launch in early 2014 on both Steam and PS4. Those chomping at the bit to play may purchase the title immediately while in Early Access on Steam for $14.99. If you somehow manage through this next year without playing this homage to side scrolling shooters of eons past, you should take a moment to consider where your life went so wrong.

E3 2013 - Mercenary Kings Hands-On Impressions

Nick and I snaked our way through Sony's overcrowded booth. Well, it really wasn't a booth - it was more like an impressive display of dominance. It was bigger than Microsoft's show floor, and it seemed to have many more games on display than Nintendo. Sony's E3 offerings were laid before us. The only thing separating our eager hands from our sweet, sweet next-gen experience was a thousand other event goers with the same hopes, dreams, and inflated expectations.
