PlayStation fans in North America will be able to get their hands on the latest iteration of the hit do-it-yourself platformer starting November 16th. Alongside the announcement, Sony has also teamed up with Disney, Pixar, Insomniac and several other retailers for several exciting pre-order goodies for the game. According to Sony:

• Pre-order at Amazon.com and get 6 Sackboy costumes including exclusive access to Ratchet & Clank costumes from the ever popular Ratchet & Clank franchise.  In addition to the exclusive 2 costumes, you’ll get four new “Animals” costumes, for a total of 6 costumes.
• We’ve partnered with Disney & Pixar to provide the exclusive “Aliens” costume for BestBuy pre-orderers.  We can already imagine the number of uses you guys will use this costume combined with the new Sackbots feature.  And be on the lookout for more characters thru an upcoming Toy Story 3 DLC in the near future.  Plus the 4 costumes from “Even More Animals”
• Head on over to GameStop and pre-order to get the exclusive *Clu* Sackboy costume from Tron: Legacy. Be the first to have this costume and hold tight for more TRON: Legacy costumes later this year.  And again, you also get the 4 different “Even More Animals” costumes.

But that’s not all, a Collector’s Edition of LittleBigPlanet 2 is also on the way. Available at select retailers starting November 16, the US$ 79.99 pack will include a copy of the game, a sackboy plushie, an exclusive LBP2 “game ends”, eleven downloadable costumes and five exclusive PSN avatars.
