    Overall, a great start for the PS5 era and a perfect example of a game that doesn’t have to be in-your-face to still dazzle.

    Sackboy: A Big Adventure is a brilliant platformer bursting with ideas, and even though it strictly adheres to tradition, every minute is still a joy. If PlayStation was looking for its own Mario, it found it.

    Sackboy: A Big Adventure is a great platformer filled with charming levels, fun combat, and a lot of challenges to complete.

    Sackboy: A Big Adventure isn’t the most attention-grabbing PS5 launch title. It’s fair to say it’s been completely overshadowed by Demon’s Souls and Spider-Man: Miles Morales, but it offers a wonderfully crafted alternative to what are more mature titles. Sony is on a roll with the PS5, with Sackboy: A Big Adventure being yet another title PS5 buyers should seriously consider adding to their collection.

    Sackboy: A Big Adventure is dripping with charm and makes excellent use of the DualSense controller.

    A fun and well designed platformer that lacks the charm to make a long standing impact. You should try it if you want a good and family friendly game for PlayStation.

    Sackboy: A Big Adventure is a beautiful yet very classic platformer. Sumo Digital delivers a decent game mostly made for children : with a repetitive gameplay and a lack of real challenge, it still offers to a younger audience an unharmful and colorful adventure. Too bad the DualSense wasn't used more on PS5.

Between Demons Souls and this, the PS5 lineup is insanely good. Runs smoothly, vibrant colors, cool soundtrack, and very good level design. I plan to 100% this game over time. Its a shame coop online isn't coming until December or so but you need to buy this game ASAP. One of PS5's gems for sure. Btw it's not $70!… Expand

The story is about 10-12 hours of gameplay, with countless more hours to spend for completionists. Multiplayer is included, but wish they would have integrated the community more with level creation similar to the previous games. Would definitely recommend to those who have played the previous LBP titles or have an interest in platforming games.… Expand
