Is Sly Cooper making a return? Sequel rumors explained Sucker Punch \/ PlayStationThe Sly Cooper rumor mill has been on fire late, inciting mass hope Sucker Punch\u2019s radio silence means the return of the thieving raccoon. It\u2019s been eleven years since the Sly Cooper series received a new entry. In the time since, the series creator, Sucker Punch, turned its eye towards making more ambitious titles, in the form of Infamous and Ghost of Tsushima, the latter title becoming a smash hit for PlayStation. It\u2019s been four years since Ghost of Tsushima was released, and without \u201cofficial\u201d confirmation of a sequel, fans are hopeful Sucker Punch is revisiting their thieving ways. This hope has only magnified with the latest set of rumors surfacing that Sly Cooper is making a return. Sly Cooper sequel rumors explained Sly Cooper rumors have always been a hot topic in the gaming industry, despite Sucker Punch shutting down those rumors in 2022 with a statement saying the studio has no plans to revisit Sly Cooper. Of course, official confirmations only lead to more speculation, with Jeff Grub\u2019s latest share sparking a wildfire. In his latest YouTube video, Grubb shared (starts at the 6:45 minute mark in the video): \u201cI\u2019m hopeful that we would see something from Sucker Punch that is causing Ghost of Tsushima 2 to take a little bit longer than we were expecting. My hope is something with Sly Cooper.\u201d He followed up that it wasn\u2019t confirmed, and was only speculation, although he claimed there was \u201csmoke out there.\u201d Grubb is a prominent member of the gaming industry, and, while this caused a lot of commotion with many taking his word as final, he himself told people to take his speculation with a grain of salt. \u201cIf you go write your headlines about this one, that\u2019s on you,\u201d he explained. After enough platforms and voices shared Grubb\u2019s words despite his warning, Bloomberg reporter Jason Schreier shut down all the information spread. \u201cNo truth to this one, sorry to say. Sucker Punch is a one-project studio. The reason Ghost of Tsushima 2 isn\u2019t out yet is because AAA video games now take 5-7 years to make. (Also, Sucker Punch is smaller than most other AAA game developers).\u201d Schreier stated on Twitter\/X in reply to a Sly Cooper headline. Again, Sucker Punch has gone on record saying Sly Cooper is not in the studio\u2019s plans. If this does change, we\u2019ll keep you updated. For now, the Thievius Raccoonus remains on the shelf of PlayStation\u2019s large portfolio.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
