Gamescom 2012 is currently in progress and LittleBigPlanet is making a huge noise there, thanks to our brand new titles LittleBigPlanet PS Vita and LittleBigPlanet Karting. To celebrate the occasion, we have just a few treats to give you!

LittleBigPlanet DLC Costume Cross-Compatibility!

Customisation is a BIG part of LittleBigPlanet. Being able to modify your Sackboy or Sackgirl is a way for players to personalise their experience, while also bringing a variety of different franchises and entertainment properties into the LBP universe. We recognise this and have decided that we can’t ask all you LittleBigPlaneteers to fully enjoy the upcoming LittleBigPlanet PS Vita and LittleBigPlanet Karting without an amazing assortment of costumes at your disposal.

So….we’re going to let you bring the costumes that you bought for LittleBigPlanet and LittleBigPlanet 2 along with you…..for no extra cost!

Not only that, but for any new costumes that take your fancy, you will only ever need to purchase the costume once and you’ll have access to it across LittleBigPlanet 2, LittleBigPlanet PS Vita, and LittleBigPlanet Karting!

If you’ve forgotten just how fabulous you could look in LittleBigPlanet, why don’t you go and check out all the costumes we’ve released to-date and have a little window shop whilst we rush back to LittleBigPlanet HQ and make everything just perfect for you.

Here’s the small print:

There is a heck of a lot of costumes and it’s going to take us a little while to get them all tailored, pressed, and packaged up. You will get some at launch and then we’ll be adding the rest later on, but rest assured you will get them!

Also, we’re not going to be able to bring either of the Assassin’s Creed costumes (Ezio Auditore from Assassin’s Creed II & Assassin’s Creed Revelations) or the April Fools Fragrance Costume to LittleBigPlanet Karting at this time, but all the other downloadable costumes will be available so there’s no excuse for not turning heads as you gad about and race through the Omniverse.
