Little Big Planet 3 is set to be completely removed from the PlayStation Store at the end of this month, removing the ability to purchase the game outside of people selling second-hand physical copies. This follows the shutdown of Little Big Planet 3's servers on PlayStation 4 earlier this year after a long battle with hackers and other issues related to the online aspect of the game.

This announcement was made in a statement published by the official account of Little Big Planet. “After 10 years of playing, creating and sharing content for Little Big Planet 3, the game and the Little Big Planet DLC series will be removed from the PlayStation Store on October 31, 2024,” the statement said.

“Anyone who owns or purchases Little Big Planet 3 or Little Big Planet DLC before it is removed for sale will still be able to access the game and content they purchased after it has been removed. still want a digital copy of Little Big Planet 3 or any Little Big Planet DLC currently available for purchase – This is your last chance to do so, thank you for your support and understanding,” he concluded.

After sending the servers online in response to the hackers, Sony cited “technical issues” as the reason for the servers not being back online. This had the added effect of millions of user-created levels and content being lost forever. If this content is saved locally on the console, it can still be accessed.

Of course, you won't be able to access Little Big Planet 3's video features, now or ever. However, buying the game now means you can always access your digital library online.
