Story[]
LittleBigPlanet 3[]
After the first defeat of the Titans, Swoop retired to Bunkum Lagoon, spending their days among the clouds. However, Swoop joins the team after rescuing Sackboy from a fall and helps them defeat the Titans and joins Sackboy, OddSock and Toggle on their trip back to Craftworld.
LittleBigPlanet 3: The Journey Home[]
In, "The Journey Home" DLC, Swoop visits The Factory of a Better Tomorrow, the unlockable skin being an alien bird.
Profile[]
Abilities[]
Swoop is shown to have the ability to ascend slowly, and swoop down similar to Sackboy with the Hero Cape. Swoop is also able to pick up grabbable things and other characters. Swoop is also light, weighing 80% as much as Sackboy.
Personality[]
Swoop never seams to show any kind of distinctive personality because they're only in four cutscenes and aren't in the game for very long. However, it’s implied that Swoop is very lazy.
Appearance[]
Swoop is similar to a bird in appearance, but made out of beige canvas and other knick-knacks. With a clay painted beak two black bead eyes and orange pipe cleaner talons. Similarly to a real bird, Swoop makes erratic twitches commonly.
Trivia[]
- Swoop dislikes cats, but likes fish.[1]
- While OddSock and Toggle have three marbles each in LittleBigPlanet 3, Swoop only has two. This was likely done to save space in Bunkum Lagoon for the levels located in Newton's fortress.
- Swoop's gliding mechanic is not a new concept in the games. In LittleBigPlanet 2, the DC Comics Premium Level Pack was made, introduced the Hero Cape powerup, which allowed Sackboy to glide till he ran out of energy and started falling. The pack costed money but Swoop costs nothing but the game price itself. In other words, Sumo Digital reused a concept.
