The makers of LittleBigPlanet have said a public beta for LittleBigPlanet is still possible. There were reports of the public beta being canceled from a May Sony event in Europe but Alex Evans, who is the game's technical director, labeled it as a miscommunication. When asked if there will be a public beta, Alex said, “It’s a question of how much, how big."

Reports of the public beta’s cancellation emanating from an early May Sony event in Europe were labeled a “miscommunication” by the game’s technical director Alex Evans from development studio Media Molecule.

It’s not a dead issue, Evans said. He said that the game is currently in private beta and that what the game’s team meant to tell the European press is that “There’s no public beta now.”

I asked if there will be a public beta and he said: “It’s a question of how much, how big.” He wouldn’t give me a definite yes, but it appears once more to be possible.
