VG 247 is reporting that Media Molecule has decided to push back the release date of LittleBigPlanet 2 from November 2010 to January 2011. A Sony Rep added these comments on the late breaking news regarding the delay:

It is obviously disappointing that LBP2 will not be available until January, but as one of the most innovative and fun franchises ever seen on PlayStation platforms, we believe that it is key that the quality of the game lives up to the reputation established by Media Molecule with the multi mullion selling, award winning original.
Media Molecule has gone on to describe the ambitious nature of this title and the amount of features that will be available once the game drops. This recent development isn’t much of a shock given that each console has seen it’s fair share of delayed games. In the end all this means is that 2011 will be a phenomenal year for Playstation owners mainly because they have so many titles to look forward to. What do you guys think? Does this news disappoint you or are you happy with waiting until January to play LBP2? Let us know below.

Here's some more info:

Media Molecule's LittleBigPlanet 2 is being pushed back to the January 2011, Sony has confirmed. In an official statement on the PlayStation blog, Media Molecule said it was "truly sorry" for the slip and explained that the reason for the delay was "to allow ourselves a bit more time to deliver the experience that our great fans and community deserve."

LittleBigPlanet's no stranger to delays – 2008's debut instalment was pushed back thanks to some unwitting controversy stemming from its soundtrack choices.

Already LittleBigPlanet 2 is looking hugely ambitious, extending its scope beyond platforming and so far astounded every time we've seen it. It's sure to be worth the wait.

Here's Media Molecule's statement in full:

LittleBigPlanet 2 is a crazy dream, a dream to allow players to make whatever kind of game they want, but also to play though a great adventure of drama and excitement, power-ups and cinematics. But like all the most ambitious ideas, it can be a considerable challenge to turn these dreams in fun games. We've all been working like powered-up space ninjas and we're almost there, but because we love what we've made, and we love our little sack-friends, and most of all we love all our fans out there, we couldn't let you all get together until we knew we were giving you the best experience imaginable. Which is why we've taken the hard decision to delay the worldwide release of LittleBigPlanet 2, originally slated for later this year to January 2011.

We know this will come as disappointing news for all you LittleBigPlanet fans, and believe us, we are disappointed too. We are a tight-knit team and we take enormous pride in our work, so to raise the bar we've set with the original LittleBigPlanet, a game that has been so embraced by all, we've agreed to allow ourselves a bit more time to deliver the experience that our great fans and community deserve. We are truly sorry, but hope you understand that we have to build the best possible game, as it is the foundation of our community.

On the upside, we are going to find a way to give more of you a taste of LBP2 prior to launch, so stay tuned.
Thanks for your continued love and support, it won't be long – we promise.

Lots of love from all at Mm.

I really wanted it to go as planned, but give them as much time as they need to make LBP2 a big success like the first one.
