In a statement posted on twitter, the LittleBigPlanet twitter account stated that online services for all LittleBigPlanet games on the PS3 and PS Vita are no longer available.

Sony Japan has revealed that the online servers for LittleBigPlanet will be closing at the end of July 2016, rendering the online portion of all LittleBigPlanet games useless. The server closure will affect all LBP games including LBP, LBP2, LBP3, LBP Karting, Portable & Vita, affecting the PS3, PS4 and PS Vita games.
At Sony’s Gamescom Press Conference, the company has announced that a new LittleBigPlanet is in the works, and will be free-to-play. The game will be coming to the PS3, but no release date was revealed. As with previous LBP titles, the game will allow users to create levels and characters using various tools, objects and accessories.
LittleBigPlanet has hit another huge milestone: 8 million user created levels, and still growing! The community has created more than 8 million levels in the five years since the game was released on the PS3, and later to the PS Vita. It’s taken the community just under a year to rack-up another million levels.
Last night, the seven millionth level was published to the LittleBigPlanet servers. It’s been nearly four years since LittleBigPlanet was first released and the game is still going strong. With LittleBigPlanet for the PS Vita on the way soon, this number will continue to grow.
The LittleBigPlanet franchise has enjoyed success of the past few years, ever since the first title launched on the PS3. You already know about the fantastic LBP work that Tarsier Studios and Double Eleven Studios are doing on LittleBigPlanet for PS Vita, and now Sony have announced a new LBP collaboration with the hugely talented team at United Front Games who will be leading a new project called LittleBigPlanet Karting.
LittleBigPlanet has hit another massive milestone this week. The LBP franchise now has more than 6 million user-generated games and levels created by fans and uploaded online to the PlayStation Network.
Just like ModNation Racers, an entirely new version of LittleBigPlanet will be heading to the PlayStation Vita. Once again, the Vita’s hardware will be used to make creating levels and playing the different levels much easier. The level toolbox has been updated and optimized for touch controls, so players can create levels with the use of their fingers.
A mysterious LittleBigPlanet game has been uncovered by Siliconera on the website of the Australian games ratings board, the OFLC. The game is called “Sackboy’s Prehistoric Moves“ and had been approved for a general audience (basically the equivalent to a “U” or “3+”), and is being developed by Supermassive Games and Media Molecule, and published by Sony.
From July 7th 2010, your favorite comic book characters from Marvel will be heading to LittleBigPlanet. Although MediaMolecule has kept the costumes a secret, they did reveal a total of 20 Marvel costumes will be available to download for the game including Captain America, Daredevil, Spider-Man and more (see full list below).
