3D Dot Game Heroes for PS3 Introduces Sackboy, Patch Update

139w ago - Atlus Manager of Public Relations and Sales Aram Jabbari has revealed today that 3D Dot Game Heroes for PS3 introduces the Sackboy iconic figure alongside a patch update, as follows:

Today we launched a patch for our retro action-adventure 3D Dot Game Heroes, the ultimate throwback to the 8- and 16-bit eras of gaming.

The patch adds 50 fan- and staff-created heroes, the ability to carry over certain swords to New Game+, and adjustments to the completion times for the Dash Circuit mini game.

In addition, a bug fix restores previously absent loading art images so they will randomly appear and be viewable in the Loading Art Gallery.

And of course, the aforementioned inclusion of the lovable Sackboy from Media Molecule's LittleBigPlanet for PS3, courtesy of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe.

Few games convey the notion of "creation" and "customization" better than LittleBigPlanet, so what better way to bring more attention to 3D Dot Game Heroes and its powerful character creation tool than to throw one of the gaming's most popular mascots into the Kingdom of Dotnia?
