Now, with the threat of the Malicious looming again, the powers needed to defeat it are scattered across the kingdom.
Malicious casts the player as the Spirit Vessel, a being, either male or female, that has been tasked with retaking the divine powers and defeating the Malicious.
From the central hub any of the five bosses can be challenged at any time, but defeating a boss will strengthen all the remaining bosses.
Each boss is too powerful to fight normally, which is why the Spirit Vessel must first defeat weaker enemies around them to build up Aura points.
Aura points can be expended to power up individual attacks, heal, or to enter Burst mode, where normal attacks become effective against the boss.
The Spirit Vessel starts with two weapons, a quick, long range projectile and powerful fists, and will acquire more weapons and abilities from the bosses they defeat.
Players are allowed to select whichever stage and even directly enter boss battles in the wished order.
Completing the game unlocks a free battle mode and Score Attack mode.
About PlayStation 3
Released in 2006, the PlayStation 3 had a rocky start thanks to its high launch price but became known for its exclusive franchises and Blu-ray drive, which doubled as an early home theater upgrade for many households. PS3 collecting is still relatively young — most titles are inexpensive — but the console's digital PSN storefront closure risk has pushed more collectors toward physical copies specifically to preserve access.
Gamevaro tracks Malicious for PlayStation 3 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Malicious to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS3 release dates back to 2012.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
