For fans of the popular PS3 platform game, here is the news you have been waiting for. Sony has finally announced LittleBigPlanet 2 is to be released later this year. Get your requests in now for the most anticipated Christmas present of 2010 as the game returns this winter.
3 million copies of the original Playstation 3 game were sold and now Sackboy is back in an expanded adventure as he attempts to rescue the world of LittleBigPlanet. A wide range of environments have been planned and his new grappling hook attachment will make things even more interesting.
The developer Media Molecule describes it as a ‘platform for games’ rather than just a bog standard platform game. One of the main draws of the game was of course the editing feature allowing users to create their own levels and publish these online for other gamers to play. There is some positive news on this front as the editing suite will be even more expansive allowing you to make games from an assortment of genres and invent your own challenges.
There will also be backwards compatibility on all previous LittleBigPlanet content to keep fans of the original happy. A trailer has now been released by Sony displaying a glimpse of its next big project in gaming. If you get chance to see it let us know what you think.
