About this game
LittleBigPlanet 3 is the third main game in the puzzle-platformer series , created by a different developer than the previous two.

He tricks Sackboy into unleashing three Titans, creatures that were locked up because they robbed the world of creativity.
The goal is to explore three hub worlds where three heroes can be rescued: Oddsock, Swoop and Toggle.
These all have different abilities that can be used in some of the levels with puzzles specifically designed for them, the final levels of the game requiring all of them to work together.
Oddsock is a fast dog that is able to walljump, Swoop is a bird that can grab objects between its talons, and Toggle can switch between a light and heavy form, with Big Toggle being usually for pressure plates and weight-based puzzles while Little Toggle can run over water and fit through tight spaces.
Next to Sackboy's basic controls, there are a number of gadgets he can use, such as a helmet to ride rails, a Blink Ball gun to shoot balls at shiny surfaces and teleport to them, the Velociporter to quickly move between foreground and background, Boost Boots to jump farther and a vacuum gun used to pull foam objects.
Sackboy can also climb using rope-based textures that act like vines.
The game can be played cooperatively with up to four players, each controlling a character that can be extensively customized.
Level environments are very different, including a stage set in a diner from the 50s, a level in outer space, a movie set, an Eastern-European Christmas-themed ziggurat hub, a casino heist, and many others.
Entirely new is the ability to complete levels by building contraptions using various items that have been collected.
As with the previous games, it is possible to design and share custom levels.

About PlayStation 3
Released in 2006, the PlayStation 3 had a rocky start thanks to its high launch price but became known for its exclusive franchises and Blu-ray drive, which doubled as an early home theater upgrade for many households. PS3 collecting is still relatively young — most titles are inexpensive — but the console's digital PSN storefront closure risk has pushed more collectors toward physical copies specifically to preserve access.
Gamevaro tracks LittleBigPlanet 3 for PlayStation 3 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding LittleBigPlanet 3 to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS3 release dates back to 2014.
