A return to Sackboy’s world

I used to play LittleBigPlanet on my PS3 back in the day, and Sackboy is an awesome return to Craft World. This game is more story based, and does not feature the same level-designing, creative mode from previous LittleBigPlanet games. However, if you play couch co-op with a friend or via online, this can be a blast to play. The music, the colors, and everything look fantastic. Another nice thing is that if you plan to get a PS5 or currently own one, this PS4 copy comes with a free upgrade to the PS5 version via an online download.
This special edition is also really cute. The Sackboy plush in his little tiger costume is adorable. Totally worth getting for this, plus the other in-game costumes that this edition comes with.

A very good, unique game which does have some quirks. The platforming is solid and among the better 3D outings for the genre. The control is responsive overall, but the developers settled on a very slow movement speed for sack boy which just strikes me as odd. Playing can feel quite sluggish at times. When I take a break from the game and come back from something peppier, it can be very frustrating. This game is best played in long stretches so your brain and reflexes can acclimate to the unusual design choices. Overall, played on PS4, the aesthetics and artwork are staggering, and frankly worth the play for that alone. Soundtrack is also excellent. Load times are a bit long on PS4 pro but manageable. Game has a fair amount of content but it’s not something that will entertain you for the next 3 months...plan on playing once, perhaps even to 100%, and then putting down for a long while. Extras in the special edition, even the plush, are overpriced at $30-$40 over base game, so don’t bother.

This game is better than I ever expected it to be and has easily wiggled its way into being one of my favorites of all time. AWESOME soundtrack and really cute costumes. The plushy that came with this is also pretty cute and the artbook is well-made. This is a must buy (at least the base version of the game at the very least) if you have a ps4 or ps5! The Jin Sakai costume is also a nice touch with this edition.

I've always been a big fan of Little Big Planet and Sackboy adds another great game to this stellar franchise, it also looks phenomenal. It's one of the reasons I opted for the PS5 over the Xbox Series X. It starts out pretty easy and gradually gets tougher and tougher. I wish there were a few more worlds, but there's still plenty to do, and mastering the game is a challenge, even for the most experienced gamer.

Chose this game for my PS5 launch game over Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Assassin's Creed: Valhalla. Graphics are amazing on 4K and HDR and gameplay is fun as well.
Playing couch-coop with girlfriend and can get really intense at times on particular levels. Character customization is is fun with all the different costumes and mostly can be obtained through gameplay.
5-stars for the game but 4-stars for this because I was a little disappointed at the size of the plush. It's smaller than I expected. Packaging is misleading.

If you have played Super Mario 3D World, you will feel at home in Sackboy: A Big Adventure. Diverse creative levels with a great look into the background.
I recommend playing this in a party of 2-4 and skip playing solo. Between teamwork to create your own shortcuts and the shenanigan's of "accidentally" slapping and tossing teammates off the stage is half the fun.
Try our Remote Share Play where only one person needs to own the copy.
Upgrade to PS5 version was simple as telling the system to purchase the PS5 version, which it then downloaded the full PS5 version of the game. Make sure to stop the PS4 install or delete it to save on space.

I love all of the games with Sackboy in them because of the charming art style and presentation, but have had issues with floaty controls from time to time. Thankfully, this games controls are very precise with no annoying float to them. This is also recommended for anyone looking for a good couch co-op game. Lots of levels to explore. This version gets a free upgrade to the PS5 version as well

This is the latest entry into the LittleBigPlanet series, but it plays more like the Mario 3D world games. My wife and I are big LittleBigPlanet fans and this game has had us glued for over a year as we work on 100% everything in the game. The more people you can get to play with you the better.

Great game for my kid, and she loved the stuffed toy as expected. Somewhat smaller toy than expected. I believe the picture is a lie and very misleading on that front. It is nearly 1/3 smaller than what the picture shows I believe although I cannot prove that.

I played LittleBigPlanet sackboy since the first LittleBigPlanet game. This is the first game called Sackboy rather than LittleBigPlanet. The graphics is very good and very interesting game. Upgrade to PS5 is free, I am able to play the game on PS5.

I love sack boy and stuffed animals, so my only reason to purchase was for the toy and it did not disappoint. Oh the game is fun too.
