Sackboy, or Sackgirl, returns in "the fastest LittleBigPlanet" adventure yet" with an E for Everyone rating. After Sackboy defeated the Negativitron, visitors called the Hoard have arrived from far away on speedy go-karts to seek out and steal Craftworld's most precious prizes. The adventure begins as Sackboy, armed with his own go-kart, uses his fast-paced karting to save the Craftworld universe. Players can get behind the steering wheel and race through tracks, discover unlockables in 3D environments, and battle in karting arenas with pick up items and weaponry. Players can also create their own racing experience using the in-game editor to customize tracks, karts, weapons, and Sackboy costumes, then download designs built by other players from around the world. Features include: 25 new story levels to play across seven planets; four-player offline/eight-player online multiplayer; new gadgets and tools; PlayStation Move Support using the the PlayStation Move Racing Wheel featuring folding motorcycle handlebars with twist grip throttle; and more than 40 trophies to earn on the road to platinum. Developed by United Front Games in conjunction with Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide San Diego Studios and Media Molecule.
