Solid Snake and Sephiroth Invade LittleBigPlanet

LittleBigPlanet is getting more and more awesome by the minute, as Sony announced that Sackboy versions of Solid Snake and Sephiroth will make appearances in the game. The company also noted that levels made in the ongoing beta will be playable after the game’s October 21 release.

As you can see from the screenshot above, the MGS4 hero and the FF7 villain have been transformed into cute sack figures. It’s kinda unnerving to see a smiling, cute Sephiroth, but damn it’s still cool!

"To be involved with [Metal Gear Solid] is… slightly bizarre. When we were looking at what options as a studio we’d have to work with, they were under the ‘yeah, right!’ category of games," said Alex Evans, co-founder of developer Media Molecule.
