LittleBigPlanet 2 SackBots Featurette

Though LittleBigPlanet 2 has been delayed into next year, the updates continue. Today Media Molecule filled gamers in on the SackBots populating the game.

SackBots are essentially non-player characters that can be placed into levels. They expand the gameplay possibilities. You can, for example, have a level where you rescue them or another where you must chase them down. Alternately, you can all have o dance party.

LBP2 is now expected in North America on January 18th. Europe's release is slated for that month as well but no date's been provided yet.
