LittleBigPlanet 3 Announced
The Sack world has always been a nice place to visit, but it’s going to get that much better. At Sony’s E3 conference today, Media Molecule took to the stage to announce LittleBigPlanet 3. Not to rest on their laurels, they’ve added a bunch of new features to keep you coming back.
Of course, the visuals are absolutely beautiful. The materials look more lifelike than ever, taking advantage of the PlayStation 4’s better visuals. That’s not nearly the biggest thing though.
While in previous games, Sackboy has been the main and only character, LittleBigPlanet 3 introduces a host of new characters, each with unique abilities. A dog-like creature called Oddsock can jump off walls, while a “blob,” Toggle, can make himself bigger and smaller at will. A bird character can fly where other characters can’t reach, carrying allies if necessary.
It’s easy to see how these new abilities are going to completely change the way we play LittleBigPlanet, and that it’s going to allow a whole host of new levels after release.
Aside from that, it’s everything you’ve come to expect. Puzzle solving, platforming, creation, cute music, cardboard and, hopefully, Stephen Fry.
LittleBigPlanet 3 will be released exclusively on the PS4 in November 2014.
