SYDNEY: One of the most anticipated PlayStation 3 games in recent times — LittleBigPlanet — has been confirmed for an October 23 release in Australia.

The community based, developed by Media Molecule, puts gamers on a blue and green planet scattered with individual plots and then gamers create their own worlds and share those worlds with other gamers around the world through the PlayStation Network.

It is a 3D landscape, the characters appear glued and stitched-together, and gamers have the power to design, shape and build objects and entire locations for others to view and play.

LittleBigPlanet will be available for RRP $109.95.
