It has not been a great weekend for developer SuperBot Entertainment with regards to secrecy. Diligent hackers have dug into the beta files for PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale and uncovered a myriad of new details, including unrevealed stages and characters.

Now, thanks to some sleuths over at the GameFAQs forums, light has been shed on 20 characters AND their "minions", all of whose names appear in text files within the beta's code. While the actual gameplay purpose behind "minions" remains unknown, it appears that they consist of characters intimately tied with the playable fighter in question. Some may appear as part of the character's Super attacks, others may make stage cameos; who really knows at this point.

Here's the full list of eight leaked fighters, as uncovered by GameFAQS user rumbalumba and others:

Nariko - Heavenly Sword. Minion: Kai

Dante - DMC. Minion: Kat

Sir Daniel Fortesque - MediEvil. Minion: Kiya

Spike - Ape Escape. Minion: Monkey

Evil Cole - inFAMOUS 2. Minion: Nix

Sackboy - LittleBigPlanet 2. Minion: Sackbot

Raiden - Metal Gear Rising. Minion: Sam

Ratchet - Ratchet & Clank series. Minion: Captain Qwark

We'll update this article as more secrets are uncovered. Remember, until this information is confirmed by Sony or SuperBot Entertainment, this information must be taken with a grain of salt.

    It's clearly not a full list. I wonder who Sam is? Maybe someone who helps raiden out Otacon style in MGR? Or it could be the other cyborg ninja with black hair.

     @2 NeoGAF users have pointed out that Sam is probably a character from one of the MGS Rising trailers who looks kinda like Vamp.

     I honestly dont think they will put any if maybe one Final Fantasy character in All Stars.

     Snake probably wont be in it because he's already in Super Smash Bros Brawl.

     TBH I'm guess Square Enix will want to milk us and make it DLC for $1 each or something BS like that
