\"Infamous<\/p>\n

Sucker Punch Productions, the studio behind 2020\u2019s hit new IP Ghost of Tsushima, has revealed it is not working on anything related to its previous Infamous and\u00a0Sly Cooper franchises. The studio also says that no other developer\u00a0is working on projects related to the\u00a0franchises.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This news comes from a new blog post<\/a> highlighting Sucker Punch\u2019s 25th anniversary. Since opening its doors more than 20\u00a0years ago, the studio has worked on Rocket: Robot on Wheels, the popular Sly Cooper platformer series, the superpowered Infamous series, and of course, Ghost of Tsushima. In this blog post, though, the studio clarifies some things amidst rumors of a Sly Cooper 5 and an Infamous remake.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cAs our games continue to grow in scale and complexity, they require the full attention of our studio,\u201d the blog post reads. \u201cWith our focus on our current project, we have no plans to revisit Infamous or Sly Cooper right now, and no other studio is currently working on projects related to those franchises either. These characters are very special and near and dear to our hearts, so while we\u2019d never say never to re-opening those doors down the road, for now, there are no Infamous or Sly Cooper games in development.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, the studio says it will soon\u00a0perform\u00a0maintenance on Infamous 2 UGC servers to move them to a new home allowing\u00a0them to stay up longer. However, Sucker Punch says it will eventually need to sunset the servers but \u201c[we] want to keep them running for as long as possible for players who are still active.\u201d Sucker Punch is also working on getting Infamous Second Son\u2019s Cole\u2019s Legacy DLC, previously only available as part of the game\u2019s Collector\u2019s Edition, on the PlayStation Store in all territories.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThank you to everyone for an incredible 24+ years of support,\u201d Sucker Punch writes. \u201cYour love and appreciation are what fuel us to keep making new games and new worlds, and we look forward to continuing to bring new and exciting ideas to life for many years to come. We\u2019re not ready to talk about whatever might be next, but we hope you\u2019ll keep following us whenever we\u2019re ready to share more.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
