LittleBigPlanet is officially DEAD… | LBP3 server shutdown has been announced
LittleBigPlanet 3's servers have been offline since January, preventing players from accessing player-created levels stored in the game's archives. On Friday, developer Sumo Digital and publisher Sony Interactive Entertainment announced that the servers will remain offline indefinitely "due to ongoing technical issues."
LittleBigPlanet 3 players can still play offline, with access to the campaign and user-generated creations already downloaded to their PlayStation 4 consoles. Players can still create levels as well, but won't be able to share them. This means that more than 16 years of player creations have been erased for the majority of LittleBigPlanet 3 players – even though LittleBigPlanet 3 was released in 2014, players had access to creations all the way back to LittleBigPlanet.
"We obviously share today's news with very heavy hearts and thank you for your continued support over the years," wrote a LittleBigPlanet 3 representative from the official X account.
