LittleBigPlanet 2 for PS3 Officially Announced for Winter 2010!

412 5

I’m pleased to share some exciting news involving our crafty, stitched-together character we all know and love – that’s right, I’m talking about the one and only Sackboy. Today, we are officially announcing that our cloth friend and all of his fellow Sack-people will be back for a completely new adventure in LittleBigPlanet 2, which will be released later this year for PS3!

LittleBigPlanet established the Play, Create, Share creative gaming genre and we can’t thank the fans and critics enough for the praise and support we’ve received. The game continues to grow and evolve, helped by countless players around the globe. In fact, the sharing nature of the game has become so embraced, it has attracted fans to publish more than two million levels to the PlayStation Network since the award-winning game was released!

To show you what you can expect from LittleBigPlanet 2, here’s an exclusive look at our spanking new trailer:

So, what can you expect from LittleBigPlanet 2?

First of all, it’s developed by Media Molecule, the extremely talented team that brought you the first game, so you know you’re going to get a special experience. LittleBigPlanet 2 will provide a whole new collection of tools and rules for fans to Play, Create, and Share, including an evolved approach to control and customization that has never been seen before.

LittleBigPlanet has always empowered users to create their own levels by utilizing the same tools as the development team. Now in LittleBigPlanet 2, we’ve upped the ante, giving players the ability to not only make better levels, but completely new games – think top-down racing games, multiplayer shooters, flying side-scrollers, RPGs, etc. The possibilities are really endless.

LBP2 will also have a loads of new features, including revamped graphics, a fresh storyline, added accessories and equipment for Sackboy, and much, much more – trust me I’m only scratching the surface here!

  • Will you put the video on PSN so I can watch it over and over in HD? <3

  • i want tis game fur cristmas

  • add me lily pheonix so we cud maby play lbp online

  • THIS IS AWSOME!! but I’m still waiting for my Marvel DLC. maybe it’ll show up in this one. With a new creator kit involving super power power ups.

  • They should have a free downloadable beta for LBP2! I can’t wait.

    When the new natel (i think is what it is) controllers come out will they be compatible with the new lbp2?

  • i mean the playstation move project will it be compatible with this?

  • Excellent stuff Media Molecule! :D Can’t wait to see what you are cooking up for us to get our little burlap hands on.

    Do have one question though; You announced that microchips will make logic much easier and less thermometory. Could you give me an idea of how much space the microchips would take up?

    For example, how many of those calculator chips would fit in one level?

  • Ohhhh Yea I need to finish LittleBigPlanet and learn how to create good levels like the Assassin’s Creed 2 level.

  • MM is the best in game creation game type I hope ModNation Racer will do the same

  • A must pre-order already, cant wait.

  • This game looks great! I hope they make it so you can also play LBP PSP levels! I always wanted to make a LBP level while out and then upload it when I got home to play on my PS3.

  • Yes cant wait will pre order asap! Instead of COD Black Ops!!!

  • EPIC AWESOMENESS!

  • That was awesome especially the whole new make ur own game aspect is kool.

  • This makes me happy in the pants.

    Just please: 100% saves that aren’t yours, HOWEVER you have 100% trophies: Be able to be migrate to LBP2. My LBP save got ate and I don’t have the heart to redo/ace the Bunker and things like that for all the stickers/items again and LBP2 falls on letting me have those items from the get-go with someone’s save to migrate.

    However, you can lock the saves (that aren’t yours) for anyone that isn’t 100% in LBP1, and lock the saves like LBP1 does now. (This save isn’t yours, you can’t earn trophies with this file… just please, make that message stop popping up. I know, and I don’t care.)

  • Looks awsome can’t wait to get it >:]

  • This makes me a little sceptical as to what Sony has up their sleeves for E3.

  • make shure you have way more player enhansements like the sword and sheald and a gun that shoots strait

  • awww awesome but i will have to spend another 59.99 =(

  • one more thing grab’n’chase what if you wanted them (the little wooden people) to carry a bomb and try to blow u up with it

  • I can’t wait.
