LittleBigPlanet Sequel On The Way?
A video interview with Folkert Langeveld, marketing manager for Sony Benelux, suggests there may be a new LittleBigPlanet coming into orbit.
The video interview posted by Game-Vid is entirely in Dutch, however Langeveld does mention "LittleBigPlanet 2" when speaking about titles that support the upcoming PlayStation Move controller.
So what does this mean for Sackboy's future? What we do know is Sony has been regularly touting Move compatibility for the original LBP, not to mention a member of Media Molecule was reported saying a sequel would be "counterproductive" since the community base from the original is still holding strong (two million user-created levels!). Now that Sony owns Media Molecule have future plans changed? Or perhaps Langeveld misspoke?
So now we open up the floor to you, if you had a say in the future of LBP, what would you do with the franchise?
We have reached out to Sony for comment and will update this story as soon as we receive a response.
