PaRappa the Rapper coming to PS4 next week

Sony expands upon its PS2 emulation lineup on PS4

Sony has announced that popular PlayStation 2 rhythm game PaRappa the Rapper 2 will be getting a re-release on PS4 next week.

Although we've known PaRappa the Rapper 2 would be coming to PS4 eventually, the December 15th launch date comes via the latest PlayStation Blogcast podcast. Unfortunately, the price wasn't revealed; however, assuming its in line with the first batch of PS2 game re-releases on PS4, you can expect a price anywhere from $9.99 to $14.99 (but that's just my guess).

PaRappa the Rapper 2 wasn't as well-received as its predecessor, but it's nice to see Sony expand upon its retro lineup on PS4. 

For those who need a reminder, the first batch of PS2 games that arrived on PS4 include: 

  • Dark Cloud 
  • Grand Theft Auto III 
  • Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
  • Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas 
  • Rogue Galaxy 
  • The Mark of Kri 
  • Twisted Metal: Black 
  • War of the Monsters
