LittleBigPlanet sequel looks unlikely

MCV Staff 6th November 2009 Business News

There were lots of puzzled looks when Capcom recently revealed that it is to release a disc-based successor to Street Fighter IV rather than expand its title via DLC, but now one major developer has vowed never to release a boxed sequel to its PS3 hit.

Speaking to CriticalGamer about the possibility of a sequel to LittleBigPlanet, producer Martin Lynagh stated: I think what you’ve seen so far from LittleBigPlanet, that’s the way it’s going to continue.

Adding that a disc-based sequel would fragment the game’s online community, he continued: We’d never want to do that. That’d be the most counterproductive thing you could do I think.”
