LittleBigPlanet was one of Sony’s newest IPs during the PlayStation 3’s life with mainline titles and spinoffs. However, nothing has been announced yet for the next generation PlayStation 4. Sony has now registered two new trademarks that are close to actually being finalized.
Both trademarks are for LBP, but the first is for a “game service provided as means of the internet,” which could be for the already announced LittleBigPlanet Hub for PlayStation 3. The other one is a big more interesting as it is a double class, as “computer game software” or “toys, games, or playthings.”
Could this mean that LBP is the rebranded name that Sony looks to go with for the future of the franchise? We will just have to wait and see.
