New Video: Sonic LBP Pack Out Thursday

Tristan Oliver | March 19, 2010

And Some Stickers, Too, plus Concept Art Inside

They didn’t die.

Once thought to have fallen by the wayside, the LBP website has today affirmed the Sonic Costume Kit is on its way, arriving Thursday for $5.99 domestically, €5.99 in most of Europe, and £4.79 in Britain.

The kit will include Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Eggman, and the Werehog, along with a large set of classic Sonic stickers, dating back to the 1991 Sonic the Hedgehog.

To mark the announcement, Sony have released a trailer promoting what’s to come, which includes Sackboy Sonic speeding through a recreated portion of Green Hill Zone available for download.  Embracing such fan recreations wasn’t always the case, but the release of this DLC may turn the tide.

We have the video streaming below, and after that, you may take a look at the gallery, which includes high resolution are of what to expect, including some concept art.

    Would’ve preferred Amy over the Werehog.

    I knew someone would complain about the werehog. Me personally though, i have never brought anything off the LBP store. I don’t like buying items to dress a character in, it just seems like a waste of money to me. The Metal Gear Solid level pack though, that was a differant story.

    Aaaaah it’s the Tails Doll 2.0!

  6. Werehog on March 19th, 2010 5.23 pm

    Hehe, I will definetely buy this! :D Got LBP to weeks ago and this will be an awesome first DLC for me! :)

    And I think the werehog is there because kids love him! And LBP is aimed at children, so it’s not strange at all. And well, I like him. xD As a character…. the gameplay was… okay and at some times terrible. But here we can forget that! :D

    ROBOTNIK SACKBOY FTW!!!

  13. Casey on March 19th, 2010 10.23 pm

    Sonic Unleashed huh, but Knuckles wasn’t there.

    @Theodore

    That’s because it’s a COSTUME. Not an exact replica of him.

    When I download this, I’m gonna modify Tails into Tails Doll if possible. And maybe put some white onto Sonic’s eyes.

    The hell…? Werehog…? Amy or Shadow would’ve been a better choice. Werehog… okay, decent for one game, don’t show it again.

    Otherwise, pretty cool.

  17. Graxer on March 20th, 2010 3.08 am

    Damn… this is the first time I’ve ever wished I had a PS3. That level looks amazing!

  18. Yvarthecreator on March 20th, 2010 3.49 am

    Tails doll!

  19. Werehog on March 20th, 2010 11.33 am

    Wait a minute… this is wrong! On all other place they say that it’s Sonic Unleashed themed, not classic! Even in the trailer up there you can see it in the end!

    @Graxer: I don’t think that level has anything to do with the DLC. It’s just a Sonic themed level that’s made of LBPs normal powers. Saw it a long time ago and they just put the characters into it here. :P

    Hmm….

    I would really want a Shadow sackboy costume……..maybe it will be released with a Sonic level pack.

    pah! I`ve made a Proper sonic! Whit eyes, with his good ol’ Green eyeballs to! >:-) beat that! Plus that loop is easy to make lol.
