New to the PlayStation Store this week is a playable demo of Free Radical's shooter Haze (PS3), plus an expansion to Q-Games PixelJunk Monsters as well as Rock Band and Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock downloadable content.

Available free of charge, the Haze demo is said to provide a sample of both the game's single-player campaign as well as its four-person, drop-in drop-out online co-op. Haze is scheduled to hit store shelves on May 20.

The previously announced expansion for Q-Games PixelJunk Monsters will hit the PlayStation Store tomorrow at a $5.99 price point, Sony Computer Entertainment America revealed on the PlayStation Blog.

The expansion, entitled PixelJunk Monsters Encore, includes a new island, 15 new levels, five new music tracks and item cost and availability revisions. Q-Games president Dylan Cuthbert said that the expansion was created to end his wife's ceaseless nagging for more content.

"My wife simply loved the game so much she would badger me every day for more levels, so in the end I caved in," Cuthbert said. "Of course, we were also getting mails every day from people asking for more so we simply decided to listen to everyone."

The Shacknews-endorsed downloadable tower defense title was released on the PlayStation Store last January for $7.99.
