Beloved Sony mascot Sackboy gets the sack from PlayStation Productions logo


It seems that Sackboy - the once-beloved mascot from the LittleBigPlanet games - is slowly getting sidelined by the PlayStation brand.

Watch on YouTube While familiar faces such as Uncharted's Nathan Drake, Ratchet and Clank's Ratchet and Clank and Astro Bot could all still be seen in the video, which plays ahead of a PlayStation Productions project, Sackboy was now absent from the line up (thanks, PlayStationLifestyle). This sentiment has been echoed in many of the replies, with comments such as "they can't just put him out on the street like that" and "it's like seeing a family member getting cut out of the picture" beneath the images. Eurogamer has reached out to Sony to ask why Sackboy has been removed from the PlayStation Productions video.
