Not only does Sackboy: A Big Adventure look spectacular on the higher graphic settings (one setting that particularly stood out was ‘Sackboy Fuzz’), but it can run at an uncapped frame rate. One of the best things about playing PlayStation Studio’s releases on PC is that players are unshackled when it comes to graphical and performance settings, and that’s certainly the case here. “Sometimes it feels like a traditional 3D platformer, sometimes it’ll be on rails, whilst other times it’ll go all-out with puzzling, musical, or combat-based antics to ensure players are always doing something a little different.” I don’t think the game got the credit it deserved when it released on the PlayStation 5, because this really is one of the best 3D platformers available on modern platforms.
What I will say is that it’s a lot of fun, has plenty of creative and cool ideas, and keeps the experience varied and exciting right until the very end. I won’t go into too much depth about how the game feels to play, because it’s a two-year-old release that has been covered in depth already online. Some of the best costumes are available to download as additional free DLC (including a snazzy Kratos outfit), so players ought to check that out before playing. Much like the LittleBigPlanet titles, Sackboy can unlock plenty of different costumes for players to customise his appearance, whilst the collectible bubbles and bells give players something to seek out throughout each level. Sometimes it feels like a traditional 3D platformer, sometimes it’ll be on rails, whilst other times it’ll go all-out with puzzling, musical, or combat-based antics to ensure players are always doing something a little different. What follows is a marvellous journey through an array of colourful and creative levels, with the gameplay seemingly changing up within each one to keep players on their toes. Sackboy: A Big Adventure puts players in the role of the titular Sackboy as he looks to save his vibrant home of Craftworld from the villainous Vex, who has invaded and kidnapped almost all of the land’s inhabitants. It still feels pretty special two years on from its initial release too, even IF it feels like it holds less significance when compared to some of PlayStation Studio’s more high-profile PC releases. Sackboy: A Big Adventure was one of my favourite launch titles on the PlayStation 5, so I was more than happy to play through it again with its recent PC release – especially since it also launched as a Steam Deck Verified title.
