The Sly Cooper franchise has been MIA for over a decade, and though it stays to be seen when (or if) it would come again, demand for the platforming sequence refuses to die down. Lately, as an illustration, Sony launched the sequence’ unique recreation, the 2002 PS2 basic Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus, for PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers on PS5 and PS4, and followers of the franchise have responded with enthusiasm to mirror their longstanding demand for Sly Cooper to come back again.
In actual fact, as per a report printed by TrueTrophies, from a knowledge pattern of over 3.1 million lively PSN accounts, Sly Cooper has turned out to be the most important launch for a recreation on the PlayStation Plus Traditional Video games Catalog, which is on the market just for PS Plus Premium subscribers. Beforehand, that document was held by The Legend of Dragoon, which joined the service’s catalog in 2023, although Sly Cooper has managed to draw 2.5 % extra gamers on PS5 and PS4 in its launch week.
PlayStation Plus Premium’s pool of customers is finally a comparatively small portion of the bigger PSN userbase, so Sly Cooper’s numbers are unlikely to be large in Sony’s estimation, although the hope for sequence followers can be that the sport’s reputation on PlayStation Plus might spark inner discussions about whether or not a return is warranted for the franchise.
Again in 2022, Sly Cooper developer Sucker Punch mentioned {that a} new instalment within the sequence wasn’t in improvement. Learn extra on that via right here.
