Media Molecule is super excited that the beta for its insanely hyped PS3 exclusive LittleBigPlanet is live, but wants players to know the version in the beta is already old.
“… since it’s a beta, it’s already quite an old build,” said Media Molecule on its official blog. “We have some cool new stuff that’s been in our private test for a few days, I won’t give it all away but there are things cooking such as 5-star ratings, (much) better performance and less lagginess, better online stability, better UI for publishing, faster downloads…. so in a way playing this version is simultaneously exciting and an odd throwback to a couple of weeks ago.”
The LBP team also thanked all those that have supported the game, and added that they have “stacks of stuff lined up for the beta, and the full release”.
The post also cleared up some confusion over the handling of the LBP beta keys.
“PS sorry but beta keys and their distribution are actually entirely in the hands of Sony. MM have no control over this, so we can’t help if anyone wants to get on the beta trial, I am certain (100%) there are more keys coming SOON but we’d recommend checking the playstation forums and all the usual places for news.”
Good news then if you missed out on the first batch of keys. Even if you miss out again when more keys go live you won’t have to wait too long for the full game; LittleBigPlanet is scheduled for release in the UK on October 24.
