LittleBigPlanet 3 received generally positive reviews upon release. Critics praised the visuals, the create mode, and new gameplay elements such as the addition of the new characters. The game did however draw criticism for its technical issues and the short length of its campaign mode.
The online servers for the PlayStation 3 version of the game were permanently closed in September 2021 due to ongoing DDOS attacks.[7] The online servers for the PlayStation 4 version were permanently shut down on 19 April 2024 due to problems with the game earlier in the year. The servers had been shut down since 8 January 2024.[8][9] The shutdown stems from a game mod that caused users to be falsely banned from PlayStation Network on 7 January 2024.[10][11]
