Created and developed by Sucker Punch Productions, Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves™ is the team's follow-up to their best-selling title Sly 2: Band of Thieves™ and their "Greatest Hits" PlayStation®2 debut title, Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus® . Recognized for their award winning comic-book inspired visuals, superior craftsmanship and brilliant character designs, Sucker Punch recharges the character-based action-adventure genre delivering an innovative approach to the classic platforming gameplay experience. Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves immediately draws players into the continuing, episodic adventures of Sly Cooper and his partners in crime, Murray and Bentley, as the three struggle against new villains and old adversaries in a rich, evolving storyline, crossing exotic and remote locations.

With its sophisticated, yet accessible gameplay, Sly: Honor Among Thieves truly is the game for PlayStation 2 fans of all ages, offering unique and diverse gameplay, a challenging and exciting dual analog stick multiplayer mode, new vehicles, mini-games, gadgets, enhanced combat move sets and much more. Sly, Bentley and Murray are on the prowl for a new band of recruits as they prepare for the ultimate elaborate heist in Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves.

Sly and the gang narrowly avoided defeat and the team is in disarray. Bentley was hospitalized after the final battle with Clockwerk at the end of Sly 2: Band of Thieves and is now confined to a wheelchair. Murray , feeling responsible for Bentley's tragic accident, has left the team and chosen a path of non-violence and solace. Meanwhile, Sly visits an aging member of his father's gang, who shares with Sly the location of their old hideout and resting place of the Cooper family fortune. Arriving at this hidden location, Sly discovers another gang of thugs attempting to blast their way inside. Sly and Bentley are overmatched and quickly realize they will need considerable help to defeat this new rival. Their recruiting starts with Murray , and once back on-board, Sly, Murray and Bentley set out to enlist some new faces and some old enemies, to join their crew. It will take a team of World Class thieves to pull off this World Class heist.
