LittleBigPlanet 3 Lets You Edit Characters

LittleBigPlanet 3 will allow players to alter characters and their abilities in a newly refurbished character customisation mode.

More than just editing the costumes, faces and materials of your chosen character (Sackboy plus the three new editions to LittleBigPlanet 3 Swoop, Oddsock and Toggle), you will be now able to alter their basic details including size.

 

In a demonstration at Gamescom, developers of LittleBigPlanet 3 showed off what could be done with the new character creation tool. In the demo, they altered the size the of Toggle making him twice as big as his normal big form.

Furthermore they even changed Toggles abilities, in the case, they way he moved. Rather than running and jumping normally the developers, using the freely accessible character creation tool, made Toggle fly. They even changed the movement animations to swimming so that Toggle looked as if he was moving more naturally through the air.

On top of the extra layers and new tools introduced to LittleBigPlanet 3, this will surely increase the amount that players can do in creating their own, completely unique levels to upload to the world.

 

When the first LittleBigPlanet was released, the amount of diversity between the user levels was astonishing, and with LBP2 people even managed to create entirely different games, including a first person shooter. With so many news ways to give the creators even more control, we’ll hopefully be seeing some extremely different and very intriguing levels.
