LittleBigPlanet 2 v1.06 Update Brings Exciting New Content and Potential
When we gave LittleBigPlanet 2 a 10/10 earlier in the year, we weren’t only thoroughly impressed by its charming style and fun gameplay, but its ability to continually evolve by offering new experiences through patches and user-created content. Since then, the game’s offerings have nearly doubled with millions of new community levels, and new game experiences. On top of it all, a humongous new patch has been released, ensuring that LittleBigPlanet 2 will provide even more entertainment for millions of fans.
The latest patch has been released for LittleBigPlanet 2, and it’s a whopper. Weighing in at 568MB, the v1.06 patch adds a variety of new features, such as:
- PlayStation Move control support
- New controls
- Angle Sensor
- Speed Sensor
- Rotation Sensor
- Player number minimum/maximum editor for levels
- Slice and Dice tool
- Color and transparency tweaks for Water projectile
- Bounce Pads can now be tweaked to only bounce upon button press
- Magic Mouths now can now be named
- Triplet rhythm note placing
These additions add a plethora of new options for level creators, and we’ll be sure to see some new ideas translated into reality with the latest levels. Also, the LittleBigPlanet 2 Move Pack will be releasing next week, and will provide new story levels, Move-related gadgets, new music and sounds, additional costumes, and a host of other new material for fans of sackboy. Hopefully this isn’t the “awesome” thing Media Molecule was teasing.
If you haven’t put LittleBigPlanet 2 in your PS3 since earlier in the year, now is a great time to come back and enjoy some of the game’s many creative new levels.

Well, that and the fact that it’s only $40 now.
It’s only $29 at Amazon right now…
With the new speed rotation sensors i’ll be able to make some better lbp train stuff. Also with the move DLC next week i will also beable to better improve my LBP home and lbp sodium levels (search LBPpsHOME on lbp2). Also the 3rd person camera veiw is broken as it still works when facing left or right but when facing up or down the 3d angle is upside down now. that and looking foward to the cel-shade sackboy costume..
I thought this fixed the 3D camera problems?
it fixed the local space issue of cameras. but not the 3D 1st and 3rd person cameras. the over the shoulder of sackboy cam for side scrolling levels works same though
best part is using the navigator for sackboy. I hated that on phrestoric moves game no navigator option. nowwith this on lbp2 we can better use move stuff as 1 person rather than having to have 2 players on every level.
WARNING do not redo intro level when game ask you to as doing so messes up profile make sure you have at least 1 profile save before doing the update just incase and incase you redo the intro lbp2 level as it suggest.
Little Big Planet might be the most frustrating game ever made because its put together unbelieveable well but unfortunately gets boring way too quick.
You just have to find the really good levels to keep it from getting boring. It’s tough with so much crap but there are some really great and original levels out there.
look up my alter account LBPpsHOME i created sodium hub sodium 1 and sodium 2 levels official acknowledge by lockwood and jack buser
also try levels by PSN id: ump_button i was in lbp betas with him and he has great stuff. worse case try littlebigcentral.com they have a level showcase forum to help find good levels
I just want LBP3! ! !
(yeah i F-IN LOVE LBP’s world) 
Does this mean the patch is mandatory?
Don’t get me wrong, I love lbp and the level editor but I seriously can’t support 700 MB at this time just to play online.
you really need to upgrade your HDD if you don’t even have 700 MB to spare
TYPO: It’s a 568MB download, not 658MB.
Well spotted.
uh oh, fixed!
