Sony has licensed Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean for downloadable content introducing water-based game play to its PS3 title Little Big Planet.   As reported in 1up, the new pack introduces a water mechanic Sony had been planning on releasing for the unique platform game, one where game play is based on object physics and player-modified levels.  The licensed content sets the stage for the new mechanic and cleverly re-imagines the game’s characters as those from Disney’s pirate films, for instance turning game protagonist Sackboy into a Sack Sparrow.  1up says the “Pirates of the Caribbean” pack is priced at $5.99 plus an additional $1.99 for costumes based on the film characters.
