The organization is dedicated to fighting to "Negativitron" and defeat it before it destroys Craftworld.

Gameplay.

While maintaining the three layers, the 2.5D nature of the original title, with the player controlling Sackboy characters, players are not limited to the levels of platforms and can now choose to create many types of levels, including racing, and puzzle.

Multiple levels can be linked together, so you finish a level immediately takes the player to another in the serie.Sackbots can be programmed to follow Sackboy.
A new tool to assist in the creation of the game is the "seat of direct control." This allows players to assign specific actions such as button clicks or Sixaxis motion control, with specific aspects of game design. Players are not limited to using the seat of a direct control over level items, however, and can use it to direct the actions of the player's Sackboy character, allowing greater freedom of movement, Media Molecule made this decision design in response to the many tributes to the first platform games, where players had to "hide" and manipulate the character Sackboy specifically to replicate the style of play. In addition to this tool, the gameplay elements, similar to paintball gun Metal Gear Solid released as downloadable content will be available as a hook, "Creatinator" - wearing a hat that Sackboy and can be configured by the Creator to shoot anything special Sackboy and gloves used to pick up and throw objects with the R1 button drinkable. Media Molecule is planning to regularly update the game elements.
