Media Molecule Moving On

Media Molecule Moving On

None

LittleBigPlanet, when it released in 2008, went on to become one of Sony’s biggest exclusive franchises, and Sackboy became one of the unofficial mascots of the PlayStation brand. However, after two successful console games and a handheld version, it looks like Sackboy might be hanging up his grappling hook for a little while.



During a speech at the GameLab 2011 conference in Spain, Media Molecule studio director Siobhan Reddy said, “We’re stepping away from LittleBigPlanet to focus on some new ideas.” Of course, this still leaves plenty of room for new LittleBigPlanet games down the line, and perhaps it is good that Media Molecule brings their unique creative vision to something new. But whatever they decide to work on next, we know that it will be Sony-exclusive, as they were acquired by Sony last year. (So there will be no pulling an Insomniac and going multiplatform!)
