The first two LittleBigPlanet games received periodic downloadable content not just in the form of alternate costumes for Sackboy, but the occasional new pack of preset levels to play through and collect new items for user-made levels. Now, LittleBigPlanet 3 gets its first full level pack in the form of The Journey Home, a story set after the main game’s conclusion that looks to provide some nostalgic fun for longtime fans of the series.
The pack’s story will see Sackboy and the game’s new playable characters OddSock, Swoop, and Toggle attempt to return to Sackboy’s home planet of Craftworld, and will see the return of familiar NPCs from previous games, such as The King and Larry Da Vinci, along with worlds from the first two games updated to take advantage of LittleBigPlanet 3‘s new characters and mechanics.
Many collectible goodies, like new costumes, new level-building materials, and a new spring power for OddSock are all included as well. The entire pack costs $5.99 to download, and like the main game, supports co-op play and includes some new PSN trophies. The core LittleBigPlanet 3 game has also been permanently lowered in price on both the PlayStation Store and retail shelves, now costing $39.99 for both the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 versions.
As always we will continue to keep you updated on more news regarding the LittleBigPlanet series as it drops.
