Sony Launches Sodium One a Social Gaming Space

Posted on 18. Dec, 2009 by in News, PSN Network

Well this may attract a lot more uses to PlayStation Home as Sony has recently released a MMO inside Home for you to gather customise weapons and level up, oh and to socially game of course. Now the title might be a little bit misleading and we have no idea what it is suppose to mean, Sodium One? How did they get to that?

By taking the Teleporter installed in the Central Plaza, Home users can receive in-game objectives from an AI called “VICKIE.” Said objectives then task the player with playing various mini-games, including “objective-based meta-games, full arcade-style games and community events.” The first game accessible in the space: Salt Shooter, a game in which players use tanks to shoot robots. Only five levels of this mini-game are available for free, with more levels and items unlockable through micro-transactions.

Sony is giving away 1,050 free Salt Shooter unlocks to early Sodium One adopters, so be sure to go check that out soon if you’re interested. More games, events, and virtual goods will be added over time.

So would you be interested in this? It’s a new addition to Home that I’m sure plenty of Home uses will welcome. Check out the trailer video below. News Source.
