Killzone 2, LittleBigPlanet Hit UK in September; Resistance 2 Slated for November UK Release

Sony Computer Entertainment has provided a tentative timetable of this fall's major PlayStation 3 releases, videogamer reports.

According to the site, Media Molecule's cutesy and customizable platformer LittleBigPlanet (PS3) will arrive in the UK alongside Guerrilla Games' long-awaited first-person shooter Killzone 2 (PS3) this September.

Insomniac's launch title sequel Resistance 2 (PS3), SCE's other major first person shooter, will then hit UK retailers in November, complete with 60-person multiplayer and 8-player online co-op.

The November timeframe puts Resistance 2 in direct competition with Epic's Gears of War 2 (X360), just as the original Resistance faced off against the first Gears of War (X360) entry in November 2006.

Though Sony Computer Entertainment has yet to confirm North American release dates for the above titles, such major PlayStation 3 releases have been marked by near-simultaneous releases in North America and Europe.

The publisher previously expressed its intent to ship Resistance 2 in North America this fall, with a worldwide global release of LittleBigPlanet in that same general timeframe.
