	The Cosmos takes many of the previous mechanics demonstrated throughout LittleBigPlanet 2's story mode and applies them to long, challenging levels; many are split into two halves to aid in the use of size, length, and large set pieces. Many of the game's main [[Powerup \| powerups]] are used extensively, alongside the robot animals previously seen in [[Avalonia]], which are featured prominently in levels like [[Full Metal Rabbit]] and [[Fight of the Bumblebees]], where they are the main gimmick.

	'''The Cosmos''' is the sixth and final area in LittleBigPlanet 2, and home to [[the Negativitron]].

It mainly draws from epic space opera tropes; hostile aliens and war imagery from '80s films; and classic 8-bit video games, with assets spanning a wide variety of subjects that encompass all the previous themes.		'''The Cosmos''' is the sixth and final area in LittleBigPlanet 2, and home to [[the Negativitron]].

	The Cosmos and, by extension, the latter half of LittleBigPlanet 2's story underwent many drastic revisions, especially during early development around 2009. Similar to its predecessors, LittleBigPlanet 2's story mode was designed with eight themes in mind. The final three were comprised of [[Higginbotham's Mind]], an early space-themed Cosmos, and the [[The Popov's Domain \| Popov's Domain]]. However, due to a perceived overlap in ideas, these three themes were merged together to create the final Cosmos or otherwise dispersed across other parts of the story.<ref name="~~KennyYoung~~">[https://www.kennyyoung.com/2021/01/29/littlebigplanet-2s-10th-anniversary/ LittleBigPlanet 2 Soundtrack 10th Anniversary] - kennyyoung.com </ref> Out of the three, Mind's later concept art had notable influences on the arcade themes prominent in the Cosmos' background and thematic design.

	Despite sharing its name, early outlines for the Cosmos suggested the theme would focus entirely on space exploration, as well as astrology relating to zodiac signs and constellations. Aside from a few costumes and assets, this iteration of the Cosmos is hardly present in the final product. The Popov's Domain was originally set to be the climax of LittleBigPlanet 2's story, taking place on the Popov home world within the Negativitron - originally referred to as the Sucker. Although much of this early narrative reflects the final story's Meanies, the anatomical focus of the theme's design was instead recycled for the final level of [[Eve's Asylum]], [[Invasion Of The Body Invaders]].
