The fourth entry in the Sly Cooper series has been given a release date with Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time hitting shelves February 5 2013 and March 27, 2013 in Europe. Like a few games coming out recently by Sony, this game will support the Cross Buy and Cross-Save support. While this is common info for some, for those who don’t know what that means I’ll explain. Cross Buy means that purchasing this title on the PlayStation 3 will allow you to download a free copy for your PS Vita. The Cross-Save feature allows you to transfer your save file from your console version to your Vita and play it on the go and upon returning, transfer it back to the console version. Another cool feature the game will have is AR functionality. You can use your PS Vita to find treasures while you’re playing on the PS3. To hold you over a bit more, sink your teeth into this story trailer.
