Sony have announced that there will be a second installment of the hit PlayStation 3 game – LittleBigPlanet on their official blog. LittleBigPlanet 2 will bring us a brand new Sack Boy adventure when it is released this winter and Sony are hoping that the sequel will be as popular as the first game was:
“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!”
A trailer (posted below) has also been released along with some nice screenshots which can be found here at LittleBigLand.
LittleBigPlanet will be getting Disney DLC. According to NowGamer, some Pirates of the Caribbean downloadable content for the ‘Play. Create. Share.’ title is currently being developed by Media Molecule.
There is no release date for the DLC yet, but you will get trophies.
Gamerstyle have posted on their front page telling us of the news that Sony are currently recalling LittleBigPlanet globally as there is a licensing issue with the game – it apparently has a background track that contains two expressions from the Qur’an.
LBP was due out on October 24th and is now delayed until further notice.
In a quote directly from GamerStyle:
Videogaming247 have posted up Sony’s response to the situation:
During the review process prior to the release of LittleBigPlanet, it has been brought to our attention that one of the background music tracks licensed from a record label for use in the game contains two expressions that can be found in the Qur’an. We have taken immediate action to rectify this and we sincerely apologise for any offence that this may have caused.
