Studio Behind 'Little Big Planet' Confirms Next Title Coming To PlayStation VR (roadtovr.com)

Posted by timothy on from the entertaining-yourself-to-sleep dept.

An anonymous reader writes: As the company's first title, Little Big Planet was a breakout hit for the studio Media Molecule. The franchise saw three major games across the PS3 and PS4, two mobile versions (for PSP and PS Vita), and a number of spinoffs. But now Media Molecule hopes to make lightning strike twice with the forthcoming genre-eluding title, Dreams, which enables players to create and animate inside of the game world using the PlayStation Move. After several months of question dodging following the game's initial announcement, the studio has finally confirmed at Paris Games Week that Dreams will support PlayStation VR.

    The PS3/4 games aren't particularly challenging either -- the difficulty, if any, mostly stems from wrestling with the floaty controls. They don't have infinite lives, but you get a set number of lives per checkpoint, and there are enough checkpoints that you'll rarely, if ever, fail a level. There's also multi-player sections of levels, and special challenge levels.

    Also, there's the level building features of the games that many people probably spend the majority of their time. Oh, and user-created levels can be more challenging, of course.

    I like the games for their whimsy, the art style, and their heart-warming presentation.
