It’s been a long time since master thief Sly Cooper has had a chance to shine but his revival could be on the horizon. Nick Baker of Xbox Era reported in October 2021 that a new title was in the works. Leaker AccountNGT recently corroborated the same along with reporting a new inFamous to be in development.
However, in a recent tweet regarding Sly Cooper, a source speaking to AccountNGT reportedly said that Sony are “aiming for a reveal for the second half of 2022.” This seems fitting since the franchise’s anniversary falls on September 23rd. Since this year will mark the series’ 20th anniversary, it’s not at all far-fetched for the game to be teased, followed by a full reveal later this year.
Further lending fuel to the fire is the fact that the domain, slycooper.com, has been updated on March 4th according to WhoIs (with Sucker Punch Productions, developer of the first three games, being the registrant organization). The domain isn’t currently live but it is fairly conspicuous, especially with the rumored PlayStation Showcase/State of Play apparently happening this month.
Take everything with a grain of salt though and stay tuned for more details in the coming days.
