The sequel to MediaMolecule's amazingly successful has been given a street date by Sony.

Lucky gamers in North America will be able to get their hands on LittleBigPlanet 2 from November 16th.

An 80 USD special edition has also been announced featuring a Sackboy plushie, LittleBigPlanet 2 "game ends", 11 downloadable costumes and five avatars.

Unless a worldwide release is planned it would be a safe bet that LittleBigPlanet 2 will launch in the uK and on the following Friday, November the 19th. That should put it in a head-to-head with Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood.

Thanks CVG.
