LittleBigPlanet 3 and LBP DLC are being delisted from the PlayStation Store

Sony has announced that LittleBigPlanet 3 and LittleBigPlanet DLC are being removed from the PlayStation Store.

The PS4 platformer and the entire range of DLC for the franchise will be pulled from sale on October 31, 2024.

“Anyone that currently owns or purchases LittleBigPlanet 3 or any LittleBigPlanet DLC before it is delisted for sale, will still be able to access their purchased games and content after its removal,” the platform holder said.

Sony-owned LBP creator Media Molecule also wrote on X: “LittleBigPlanet shaped us as a studio & remains an important part of who we are. We are & always will be forever grateful for it & the incredible community it has inspired.”

LittleBigPlanet 3 was released for PS3 and PS4 in 2014 and was developed by Sumo Digital rather than Media Molecule. It’s currently available to PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium subscribers as part of the Game Catalogue line-up, although it’s due to be removed from the library on October 15.

Sony indefinitely shut the online servers for LittleBigPlanet 3 in April, months after it claimed it had “temporarily” taken the game offline while it resolved technical issues.

It’s currently working on a new IP being overseen by John Beech, who was appointed as studio
