Celebrate with Sackboy™ as you take on the Cosmos in a way you never have before

Sydney, 20 November, 2012 – Eureka! The clever boffins at PlayStation have worked out how to combine your PlayStation®Vita (PS Vita) and your PlayStation®3 (PS3™) to explore the unique worlds of LittleBigPlanet™ 2 in an unimaginable new way.

With the new LittleBigPlanet 2 Cross Controller downloadable pack, your PS Vita becomes its own controller allowing you to see special gaming action on its unique touchscreen. Not only is there a huge variety of exciting new levels to explore, but you can even create your own cross-control games for others to enjoy.

With the Cross-Controller DLC pack you’ll have brand new experiences at your fingertips and the fun doesn’t stop there! Redefine the playing field with powerful new tools:

• Dual-screen Gaming 

Watch as your PS Vita becomes a swanky controller displaying special gaming action on its touchscreen and utilising all of its unique features.

• Multiplayer Fun

Up to four friends can play the levels included in this pack together, with one player on PS Vita and up to 3 players using wireless controllers on PS3.

• Exclusive Costumes

Dress up your sack-buddy as a Space Pirate Captain, Space Pilot, Space Prison Warden, Holo Sackboy or in a Space Walk Suit.

• New Items

Customise your world with a batch of great new stickers, objects, materials and decorations.

• New Tools and Gadgets

You can enjoy making your own Cross-Controller games or simply play levels made by other LBP fans.

With an exciting new story and jaw-dropping mini-games, LittleBigPlanet 2 has no limits and thanks to the Cross-Controller DLC Pack, neither will you! Help Sackboy join a revolutionary fight to save the cosmos from an evil vacuum cleaner and do battle with a host of new enemies. Luckily, you can use the multiplayer mode to take a friend – or three – along with you to help out.

To download the Cross–Controller DLC Pack, head on over to the PlayStation Store, but first make sure you own LittleBigPlanet 2 on PS3 and a PS Vita so you’ll be able to experience all the fun. LittleBigPlanet 2 is still a free downloadable game to add to your Instant Game Collection if you are a PS Plus subscriber.
