Last week when we revealed our upcoming Gears of War 3 cover, you might've noticed a tidbit regarding a certain sequel that has generated lots of Sack-related buzz over the weekend. Today Sony has confirmed that Sackboy will in fact make a comeback in LittleBigPlanet 2 when the game is released later this year.

LittleBigPlanet 2 is set to push the Play, Create, Share motto adopted by Sony in bigger ways than ever providing players with even more levels and an expansive toolset for limitless opportunities. Want a peek at the action? Check out the trailer on the PlayStation Blog or below. The video shows how you'll be able to create more than just platforming levels, but entire games in any genre. Create your own shooters, on-rails side scroller, or be the person responsible for the Sackboy remake of Final Fantasy VII we've all been waiting for.

According to reports, a member of Media Molecule once said a sequel would be counterproductive and fragment the community, however there's no need to worry here. The trailer assures us that the two million user-created levels in existence are going no where and will still be available for play.

Want even more details on LittleBigPlanet 2? Check out our Gears of War 3 issue for an extensive first-look at the game spanning six pages! For other details check out the LittleBigPlanet official website.

Who else is excited about the sequel???

HECK YEEESSS!!! Loved the first one to death. Sounds like this one could top the first one(if thats even possible). Can't wait!

This is great! The first one was so awesome and I can't wait to play this game. There are SO MANY games coming out this year that are awesome. Now I know what Andy McNamara meant by saying "2010 will be the greatest year in video game history."

Looks good. Can't wait to see more at E3.

Wow!!! That looks great! Okay; I'm excited.
by born4this Monday, May 10, 2010 at 10:52 AM

I'm scared to play something like this. What if I didn't have time for any other games because I was too busy creating my own games in LBP2?!?
by Ghostpig Monday, May 10, 2010 at 10:52 AM

I may have to borrow my gf's PS3 for thhis. I'm thinking a Sackboy Maniac Mansion.
by Vwgti303 Monday, May 10, 2010 at 10:58 AM

This looks absolutely fantastic! Can't wait!
by soy_el_callejero Monday, May 10, 2010 at 11:05 AM

Wow!!! I wouldn't know what to do first.... Play the story mode or make my own levels.
by Prince of Snark Euphoric Ennui I Monday, May 10, 2010 at 11:09 AM

Mind blown? How about completely shattered, then crushed into dust, and blown away to all corners of the earth.

Seriously...I'm buying a ps3 for this. I've already decided. And that song..I MUST HAVE IT!
by Colton Monday, May 10, 2010 at 11:14 AM
