LittleBigPlanet 3 gives Sackboy some friends (who all seem way more useful than him)

LOS ANGELES — Sackboy is bringing some new buddies with him to the PlayStation 4.

Sony announced LittleBigPlanet for the PlayStation 4 at its Electronic Entertainment Expo press conference today. During a live demo, developer Media Molecule showed off a few new characters, including Oddsock and Toggle. The former can wall-jump and the latter can push heavier blocks and shrink to fit in small gaps. We also met Swoop, a bird-like creature who can fly.
