Sony today announced the North American release of LittleBigPlanet for the PSP and PSP go system, bringing the critically acclaimed franchise to PSP for the first time.

Built specifically for the PSP, LittleBigPlanet includes over 30 original developer-created levels through seven new themed locations. Players will also be able to publish their creations online to Share with others via PlayStation Network. Levels and objects can then be ranked so the best of the best will get the recognition they deserve.

The LittleBigPlanet experience starts with players customizing SackBoy, the main character of the game. From there, players play and learn about SackBoy's powers to interact physically with the environment while navigating through over 30 levels. Players must avoid obstacles, solve puzzles and collect items that can be used to make their own creations.

To Create, players use the "Popit" menu system to access all of SackBoy's materials, stickers and tools to bring their creations to life. Here, players have the power to build and move around any object in the game's landscape. All materials and objects have realistic physical properties and will behave accordingly.

LittleBigPlanet is available on both UMD and as a digital download via PlayStation Network.
