Fat Princess Adventures Serves Up a Slice of RPG Action

Fat Princess, the rotund royal from the PlayStation 3 game of the same name, is a bit of a strange PlayStation mascot. The character has appeared in titles such as PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale and Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare, but never really appealed in her own games. Fat Princess Adventures, a casual couch co-op RPG for the PlayStation 4, looks set to give the meaty monarch the title that she finally deserves, then, ditching competitive action for some light-hearted looting.

The core tenets of the original remain in place: you'll be doffing different caps to change your class, and rescuing the titular heroine as you progress - but instead your aim will be to bring down a witch named the Bitter Queen. To do this, you'll be roaming the realm of Great Bitten in search of gear, experience points, and, of course, cake, in what's looking like a classic dungeon crawler with a cutesy art style. There's no word on a date for this just yet, but developer Fun Bits promises that more will be revealed in the coming weeks.
