The popular and adored Sackboy from PlayStation 3’s galaxy recently made his way to a new game titled 3D Dot Game Heroes. The character was supposed to reach the world of LittleBigPlanet with a set of new adventures this November. However, it seems that the path towards the second installment of the game has been prolonged. A post on the PlayStation blog has revealed that the release date for LittleBigPlanet 2 has been postponed to January next year.
Earlier this week, a post on the blog informed about the delay with inputs from developer Media Molecule. It revealed that owing to the widespread popularity of the game, fans as well as folks at the developer’s end have enormous expectations from the sequel. In order to offer an amazing ride to fans, the company has decided to delay the release of the highly anticipated chapter.
However, gamers in the UK can peep into the next installment through the LittleBigPlanet 2 online beta which began recently in the country. Players outside this territory can watch videos from numerous beta levels on LittleBigPlanet Galaxy website while those looking for Sackboy Toys will have to rush for the nearest Toys “R” Us stores. In addition, the blog has also stated that entries for LittleBigLand’s 4-in-1 Epic-Ness competition have been unveiled.
Those who are eagerly anticipating for the advent of LittleBigPlanet 2 will need to wait until January 18, 2011.
