Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus (known as Kaitō Sly Cooper (怪盗スライ・クーパー?, lit. “Phantom Thief Sly Cooper”) in Japan and Sly Raccoon in Europe and Australia) and is a platform stealth video game created by Sucker Punch Productions, and released on the Sony PlayStation 2 in 2002, subsequently republished as a “Greatest Hits” title.[1][2] The game was followed by three sequels, Sly 2: Band of Thieves Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves and Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time. On November 9, 2010, Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus, as well as its two sequels were released together as The Sly Collection, a remastered port of all three games on a single Blu-ray disc as a Classics HD title for the PlayStation 3. On February 5, 2013, a fourth Sly Cooper title, Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time, was released on the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita.
The game focuses on master thief Sly Cooper and his gang, Bentley the Turtle and Murray the Hippo, as they seek out the Fiendish Five to recover his family's “Thievius Raccoonus”, a book with the accumulation of all of Sly's ancestors' thieving moves. The game was praised for using a variation on cel-shading rendering, which is used to create a film noir feel, while still rendered as a hand-drawn animated movie, though criticized for being too short.
An upcoming CGI animated film based on this game is set for a theatrical release in Q1 2016.
