Fuck. That PushSquare review has me salivating...
The more I see and read about this the more I want to play it. Might even get this after DeS and MM before jumping into ACV...

To be fair the XSX is also on fire.

To answer my own question, yes you can share play just like you could with PS4 so if your friend has a PS5 and PS+ you can play co-op without needing to wait for the game to be patched.

Not played enough to fully review it yet, but here's 15 minutes of gameplay - Really enjoying it so far!

I do have my eye on this and glad to see this looking so good. I'll pick this up at somepoint when discounted.

I'm loving the music I hear. I went from not caring about this because I'm tired of Sackboy after LBP3, but this quickly tickled my fancy. Is there any word of how integrated the DualSense's features are in the PS5 version? I could play this on PS4 now, but after hearing about how Astrobot makes use of the new controller, I may be willing to wait until I get a PS5.

Does it allow a PS5 upgrade with save transfer?

I've been psyched about this since it was announced and it looks like it could be amazing. This is one insanely good launch lineup for PS5. Even Bugsnax is reviewing incredibly well. I don't care about console wars because I always buy both, it's all about the games for me, and I'm about to be flush with great new games.

So glad that this is also on PS4, this probably would've pushed me to get a PS5 at launch if that was the only way I could play it.

I've been drowning in quality platformers lately... Crash 4 and Astro are almost eating Sackboy's lunch.

Almost. I'm definitely grabbing this.

will need some planning but I assume Astro is relatively quick to finish then pop back a few times to tidy up collectibles. Same with bugsnax. With some DS/MM in between it should balance out well enough

Glad to see it's getting some solid reviews. Sumo can be a bit hit or miss. 3D platformers are one of my favorite genres so I'm really hoping Sony invests in a sequel or two.

The biggest positive for Sackboy as a series is the level editor and they axed it for this one, which is wrong IMO.

The fact that DS4 doesn't work on PS5 games is going to affect the sales of this game unfortunately. I'm would be very interested in the coop but can't really justify the cost of the controllers at launch. It would be a no-brainer if the controllers worked. Getting the PS4 copy just for that feels a bit limiting as well. Could do that though? PS5 for single player and PS4 for coop? Seems to weird.

Yeah you could. You can install both versions of a game on a PS5. Giant Bomb UI Quick Look showed Brad having Bugsnax PS4 and PS5 both installed.

Eh.. If people want to play coop in the PS5, just get another Dualsense and not miss a feature intended by the new controller.

It's the third LBP game to not have a level editor iirc. That being said, I think that varies a lot by person? I've been playing through LBP Vita recently and have been having a great time with zero desire to level edit.
I'm really curious about this... what other LBP games don't have a level editor? Vita and Karting both had them, are you counting Tearaway? PSP had it too, but I don't remember if you could play other levels online or not.

I think this looks like fun. Not $60 fun, but I'll definitely keep an eye out for it in the future (Or maybe even wait until it hits Plus).

Pumped that the game appears to be pretty great! Bought two extra controllers so I could play this with my kids at launch.
