New Sly Cooper action adventure game introduces cross save gameplay experience.
In the series' most ambitious title yet, Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time harnesses the processing power of the PS3 system to create completely re-designed characters, larger and more vibrant interactive environments, and realistic physics-based gameplay that brings the series forward for the most engaging Sly experience yet. Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time is also playable in vibrant Stereoscopic 3D on the PS3 system. With the PS Vita version, players can now take their campaign on the go with the Cross-Save, enabling save data sharing between the PS3 and PS Vita system so players can save their progress on one platform and continue their game on the other system. In addition, the PS Vita version fully utilizes the dual analog sticks for expert precision and platforming, and introduces front and rear touch controls, motion control, and augmented reality features for a more intuitive gaming experience.
Launching alongside the full-featured title, gamers will also be able to challenge their skills and their friends with the release of Bentley's Hackpack, a new downloadable companion game for PlayStation Network playable on both the PS3 and PS Vita systems. Featuring three of the retro inspired arcade mini-games from Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time, Bentley's Hackpack introduces an additional 20 levels and 100 challenges to each game and adds competitive social leaderboards so you can compete against your friends for top scores. Bentley's Hackpackis available as a free-to-play demo, or $2.99 for the complete experience, and has an ESRB rating of "E10+". Purchasing the PS3 or PS Vita version of Bentley's Hackpack will allow gamers to download the game on the alternative platform at no additional cost.
Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time is now available exclusively for $40 on the PS3 system and $30 on the PS Vita system. As an added bonus, consumers who buy the PS3 copy will receive a digital PS Vita version from PlayStation Network at no additional cost.
