It’s time. Time to reveal the LittleBigPlanet PS Vita release date! The game will be available in North America on Tuesday, September 25th. That’s right, in just a few short weeks you’ll experience Sackboy’s next adventure, set on the mysterious traveling planet of Carnivalia.

We’ve put together a featurette video for the game, which you can watch up at the top of this post. The video will tell you a little bit more about LittleBigPlanet Vita’s story.

Thanks to PS Vita’s unique features, you’ll be able to play completely new game experiences and share your levels with the world wherever you are and whenever you feel like it. You can take pictures of anything you see while you’re out and about, and use them to decorate Sackboy or customize your level. It’s never been easier to make your cat or dog the hero of your level!

By the way, it’s not too late to pre-order the game and get some bonus BioShock or Knights of Old costumes.

  • for some weird reason i knew it was coming out in september lol

  • Sweet. Digital version people going to get any of the sweet pre-order dlc?

    • Simon Rosenkotter

      This is something we are looking into right now. We should have some good news for all those of you who wish to buy the digital version shortly.

  • Hooray, can’t wait for this. Now I just need release dates for Ragnarok Odyssey, New Little King Story, Soul Sacrifice, Jet Set Radio, etc.

  • That’s great news! I’ve got to order my copy now! Just need dates for Karting and Sly now.

  • September’s gonna rock with Ragnarok Odyssey and LBP!

  • YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY

  • In reference to my question about dlc and digital buyers… tarsier said “We are looking into goodies for buyers of the digital version and we should have some good news for you soon. Keep your eyes peeled”

    sweet, thanks Simon

  • YES!!!!!!!!!!! FINALLY!!! But how big will the game’s file size be?

  • In the words of Mr. Charles Montgomery “Monty” Burns, “Excellent.”

    =]

    Day one for sure.

  • Is that a planet in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?

  • Simon, so do we only get to pick one set of pre order costumes or both? I’m definetely picking the bioshock costumes if you can only pick one!

    • Simon Rosenkotter

      I believe that is the case. But it might worth checking at different retailers. In any case, these costumes will become available at some point on the PS Store. But not for a very long time and the colour scheme of the Knights of Old costumes is exclusive to the pre-order.

  • ABOUT DAMN TIME! Gimmie gimmie gimmie!

  • Really looking forward to getting this game (digitally from the PS Store). Will there be a demo a few weeks earlier to help tide us over?

    I’m also interested to see how this will work with LBP2 on PS3. Will that functionality be available at launch?

  • Reserved mine like a week ago! If u reserve at gamestop u get both customs! XD

    I was very pleased with the beta it was awesome! (the touch controls werent as responsive in some lvls but i think it was bc it was a beta) but apart of that, LOVE IT!

    Hoping the story its good! for what i see it will be! :)

  • I’ll certainly be grabbing this, but digitally! So please give us the week one dlc for digital users!

    • Simon Rosenkotter

      As said above, keep your eyes peeled for an announcement regarding bonus content for digital users! :)

  • @14 you get them both from Amazon and Gamestop. So it’s pretty nice it’s not split up everywhere

  • Thought I’d add my two cents about digital downloads. I personally find digital downloads perfect for a portable device. Not having to swap out discs or cards sounds menial enough, but there’s just something about being able to power on your device, and have all that you need/want ready at your disposal with nothing else required to get playing. All that to say, I can’t wait for LBP Vita, and will be buying it digitally, as it’s a game I plan on playing a lot and often, so I won’t want to have to swap out game cards everytime I want to play the latest hot new level!

  • hell yes! today is my birthday and you guys announce the release date of my most wanted vita game! thanks for the sweet birthday present! :)

  • thanks simon!!

  • If only grad school wasn’t starting a month before. Hopefully this game will not get in the way.

  • I love both LBP 1 and 2. The PSP version just didn’t rock for me, sadly, so I’m crossing my fingers on this one. Too bad I didn’t get to play the beta.

  • haha ABNVOX my birthday its in september 30! but i wont wait those 5 days XD

    BTW: Im calling it now. this game 9.5/10 – 10/10

  • Will this version have sticker panel and hologram materials?

    • Simon Rosenkotter

      Yes, those two materials are extremely useful so there was no way we could not include them. :)

  • What is this PlayStation Vita you say? I never heard of it. What can it do??

  • Thanks guys! I was wondering about the pre order bonus for the digital version too. Is the digital version going to be the standard %10 off price?

  • Yay awesome news!

    All that’s left to hear is Ragnarok Odyssey now.

  • First, thanks for answering my question about the materials.

    Second, thank you for making this game for Vita!

  • @ Simon I want the game and the beta was great, but in the beta the saving took ridiculously a lot of time and the levels or menu wouldn’t load while the saving indicator was on and it kept like that for minutes that I couldn’t do anything. Before I decide if I will buy it, I would like to know if either that was a beta problem or if that has been already fixed. Otherwise I won’t buy a game that takes forever to load at random times and after I download a level.

    • Simon Rosenkotter

      We have made many improvements to the whole game since the beta and we will continue to improve it after the release. :)

  • Who cares. I doubt many people still even have there vita. The vita was abandoned, so people got ticked and sold theres.

  • Us fans dont like being lied too. We were promised PSone classic support. Nothing. We were promised all psp games available to play emulated. Nothing. Stop lying to us.

  • This might be the reason i get a VITA. Do you have any idea when we might start seeing some reviews roll in?

  • IT Comes the day after my birthday! love you guys <3

  • also this release date was leaked on certain websites. :D

  • Awesome

  • Nice, I was expecting later than September. This is great news.

  • Comes out 15 days after my birthday! thx guys! Day 1 digital purchase. Can u do a digital preorder like Sound Shapes?

  • Will there be a preorder in PSN to get bonuses like retail copies preorders?or it’s better to get retail and skip digital version?

  • @37 read his earlier replies.. details about digital and preorder dlc soon.

  • Omfg can’t wait had this preordered for the last 3 months paid off can’t wait sept.25 plus same day the avengers blu ray can’t wait

  • Thanks for the reply Simon. I’ll take your word for it.

  • Any details about the prices for digital version (The game, DLCs) ?

    cuz I want to put my budget balanced

  • i’m getting Sound Shapes, Little Big Planet, Sly Cooper Thieves in Time and Playstation All Stars Battle Royale on my psvita.
    Little Big Planet Karting on my ps3.

  • YES! This and Uncharted are the main reasons I got a Vita. Hopefully this’ll help boost system sales. LBP FOR LIFE!

  • As expected, and greatly looking forward to this release. The beta is incredible, dare I say better than the PS3 counter-parts. Already pre-ordered and day one for me! Keep up the good work Sony!

  • It would be a REALLY good idea to release LittleBigPlanet Karting on the VITA, an OVERWHELMING amount of people I talk to say that they won’t buy the title until it is on the VITA, it is only an advantage to you guys! LBP Karting would be the perfect Vita title!!

  • Cool, I’ll buy it

  • By the way, what are the cross-play features?

  • @DZORMAGEN Can’t tell if trolling or just… probably the later.

  • Yes!!!!!! can’t wait

  • i second Little Big Planet Karting on PSVITA, and sony really needs to address online gameplay on the vita, i mean ModNation Racers Road Trips lacks the feature, Resistance Burning Skies needs to improve it.
