Hypothesis of a second sport in manufacturing at Ghost of Tsushima studio Sucker Punch Productions tied to the late Sly Cooper collection has been doing the rounds this weekend, however none of it is truly true. Alongside a presumed follow-up to the developer’s samurai hit, Jeff Grubb of Large Bomb steered the workforce could have one other title within the works, although it wasn’t based mostly on discussions with sources; it was merely a “pie within the sky” proposal.
This did not cease the web from selecting up the off-hand remark as a correct hearsay, although, resulting in solutions Sucker Punch Productions truly does have a brand new Sly Cooper title within the works. Bloomberg journalist Jason Schreier has now weighed in on hypothesis, tweeting: “No fact to this one, sorry to say. Sucker Punch is a one-project studio.”
Commenting on the second sport doubtlessly being the rationale why the Ghost of Tsushima sequel is taking longer than anticipated, Schreier defined: “The explanation Ghost of Tsushima 2 is not out but is as a result of AAA video video games now take 5-7 years to make.” The PS4 sport, later ported to PS5 and coming quickly to PC, first launched in July 2020.
Sucker Punch Productions already said that no new InFAMOUS or Sly Cooper video games are in lively improvement on the studio or from exterior builders in a weblog submit virtually two years in the past. On the time, it mentioned: “With our concentrate on our present undertaking, we have now no plans to revisit inFAMOUS or Sly Cooper proper now, and no different studio is at present engaged on tasks associated to these franchises both. These characters are very particular and close to and pricey to our hearts, so whereas we’d by no means say by no means to re-opening these doorways down the highway, for now there are not any inFAMOUS or Sly Cooper video games in improvement.”
Funnily sufficient, the assertion was made after one other separate hearsay of a brand new Sly Cooper sport in improvement on the now-defunct Concrete Genie studio PixelOpus. It appears the forgotten raccoon simply cannot catch a break after PS3, PS Vita entry Thieves in Time did not set the world on fireplace.
