Design Director Ned Waterhouse claims the game runs at 60FPS and it was important to make this a key feature to improve the overall control and handle of the game.
Ned explains how A Big Adventure is brought to life with its set pieces and star of the show, Sackboy. Ned revealed that players can look forward to a robust single-player adventure as well as experience the game fully playable in co-op too. In addition, there are specific levels made just for co-op where players will have to work together or against each other to succeed.
