05/10/2013 - Manhunt Coming to PSN Next WeekManhunt Coming to PSN Next Week
Next week, the roster of downloadable Rockstar
titles in the PS2 Classics collection at PlayStation Store is set to get bigger - and grislier - with the addition of Rockstar
North's dark stealth thriller Manhunt, originally released 10 years ago. Beginning on May 14th Tuesday when the
PSN Store does its weekly update (Wednesday for those in Europe), you'll be able to step back into the shoes of James
Earl Cash, a Death Row inmate playing that most dangerous game of kill-or-be-killed at the mercy of the maniacal Lionel Starkweather.
Manhunt will be available from PSN for $9.99 / €9.99 / £7.99 and joins Bully and Red Dead Revolver, as well as all PlayStation 2 entries in the Grand Theft Auto and Midnight Club franchises, in the PS2 Classics category of PlayStation
Store. It will also soon be joined by The Warriors - stay tuned, Boppers...
For now, enjoy the original Manhunt
trailers released in the summer of 2003 below - and special thanks to longtime fansite Project Manhunt.
