If a leak (that has now been taken down) by a poster on the Atlus forums is to be believed, a 3D Dot Game Heroes 1.01 patch is headed our way, courtesy of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe.

 

What does patch 1.01 add? Here’s a short feature list:

 

  • Sackboy from LittleBigPlanet will be added to the game.
  •  

  • New character models created by and for fans will be added.
  •  

  • Completion times for the Dash Race have been adjusted to make it less difficult.
  •  

  • Certain swords will now carry over in New Game+.
  •  

  • Loading art images will now appear randomly, and upon being viewed, be available in the Loading Art gallery.
