Free-to-play FPS coming to PlayStation Home

4.6

Sony has announced Bootleggers, a free-to-play FPS due on PlayStation Home before the end of the year.

The game will launch as part of a thorough overhaul of the PlayStation 3 social network, which will see Home split into hubs, dubbed "districts", according to genre. Bootleggers will sit in the Action district, with avatars facing off against each other in a basic multiplayer shooter.

The Sports district, meanwhile, will feature a poker game that, in the background, has a TV screen showing highlight reels of real-world sport.

While Sony has yet to confirm precisely when the update will be live, the below video teases an announcement on October 5.
