Day 1 along with Miles Morales. It got me to purchase a second dual sense for launch day. The fiancé and I will enjoy this. LBP3 was one of her favorite games 👌

Not only does it look really fun to play, but it's surprisingly good looking as well. You can tell there's a lot of love and craft put into those environments.

Man, I really hope this is good. And by good I mean it scratches that itch for someone like me who loved LBP 1 + 2.

Why does Sony advertise this game on PS5 only? Not cool... It looks great btw I loved LBP but the graphics look really underwhelming even with considering the artstyle.

This looks amazing, I just love the vibe and energy that the LBP universe gives off and this has it in spades.

When I was in college I remember feeling burnt out and Playstation came campus and showed a LBP trailer as one of their upcoming games and something in me just couldn't help but be in love with that world and style of game that was all joy and discovery. It really pushed me to work more things and apply to Playstation. I was super sad to not see anything come out of the franchise since LBP3 though.

This is everything I loved about the style and world, and as a launch title too. Hell yeah.

There are staples of games I love at launch, and a good platformer is one, and this game every single time I see it looks better and better. Absolutely cannot wait to play this.

Yea, the more I see of it, the more interested in getting.

They're not allowed to be full prize because they're platformers or what? Ugh I hate this. Crash 4 is packed with content, the prize is completely fair.
Annoying that platformers are inherently worth less to people unless they have Mario on the cover. Sackboy looks like a great 3D platformer with good graphics and a substantial amount of content, as does Crash 4, and can easily justify full price.

I fully agree with this. These games look jam packed with content. No need to treat them like some 2nd tier indie project.

That's awesome. LBP, changing lives for the better.

Probably Day 1 but want to check reviews. My God, such an expensive launch.

Really hoping this is a trilogy at the least and that it propels Sackboy to be a bigger PS mascot. He's just perfect

Looks so good. Can't wait to play this with my girlfriend next month. Have they said anything about length?

Any word on a collector's edition I missed? I think that's the route I'll go if possible.

Edit: nevermind, found it

Gonna be between him and Astro Bot. Kinda leaning towards Astro, but love me so Sackboy as well. I just wish that Sony would heavily push one or both of them. So much potential to be Sony's Mario.

Looks good and right up my alley but I imagine it will be a while before I get to this, I might even wait until it eventually hits PS Plus

I was very lukewarm on this game when it was first revealed, but each time theu released new info, gotta say that it looks better and better.

Watching this also made me wish a puppeteer game was being made, but am glad we have the astro bot franchise at least.

Between this & Astro, platformer fans are well catered to for PS5 launch.

This went from 'Eh' to 'Day 1' for me over the last month with the new trailers & blog posts.

Always up for some Sumo Digital goodness. I'll have to pick this up down the line sometime.

The game is looking really good. It's cool to see them doing a different take on LPB. Have they discussed whether this has a level Editor like a traditional LBP game?

This looks like a blast, especially coop, $60 seems a little high though, will wait till it drops a bit

Looks really good! Is this the same team that made Snake Pass? Loved that game, with something as rare a innovative control scheme.

The more I see of this game the more I want it, but there is not way I would have much time to play it with all the games coming out this holiday.

I am exactly in this boat. It's looking better and better each time I see it. But it's not a day one with everything else landing in November.

So can we expect a new video for the game soon, now that Demon Souls and Miles Morales have put out videos in the last couple of days?

Wonderful. Hope we get reviews soon, but I can't see a world where I don't get this to play with my wife
