Sly 3 Honour Among Thieves is the British spelling of the same entry. Same spectacular heist, same generosity and same love for the Cooper gang. A closer to savour.

Story
★★★★★
"Captivating"
Cel-shading with bold outlines, nocturnal noir moods and cartoon animation: Sly's universe is a light, dark-toned cartoon. The crisp silhouettes and stylised settings compose an immediate playful elegance. This visual identity, lively and refined, has lost none of its mischievous charm.
Gameplay
"Masterful"
Recruiting a crew with complementary talents to orchestrate elaborate heists pushes the variety of stealth gameplay further still. Aerial platforming, infiltration and piloted sequences flow without a dull moment, readable at every turn. A few minigames feel slight, but Sly's agility and the adventure's pacing keep the pleasure fully intact.
Fun
"From the very first seconds"
The grand finale of the burglar raccoon's saga: pulling off spectacular heists with a whole crew of accomplices with varied talents, alternating stealth, platforming and inventive mini-games. The freedom of approach and the ever-present humour make every mission a joy. Stylish, generous and superbly crafted, a platformer-burglary that brilliantly closes an endearing trilogy.
Addictiveness
"Obsessive"
Slipping through the shadows, chaining heists and acrobatics and then switching between several characters with distinct talents sets up a stealth and platforming loop full of ideas. Unlocking gadgets and preparing the next heist revives the urge to push on. A few mini-games feel out of place, but this cartoon style, this accessible infiltration and this variety keep a stubborn pull.
Difficulty
"Balanced"
Lifespan
"Massive"
Pulling off meticulously staged heists at the head of Sly's gang blends platforming, stealth and varied minigames into a teeming adventure. The main quest is doubled by chests to ferret out, challenges and characters with distinct skills. That richness, paired with an irresistible cartoon style, earns the title a stubborn reputation as a generous platformer.

The conclusion of Sucker Punch's Sly trilogy, Honor Among Thieves wraps the burglar raccoon's saga with new accomplices, varied minigames and even stereoscopic sections. Still common in the West, its interest lies in this status as the endpoint of a well-liked PS2 platformer series rather than scarcity. A piece prized by fans of the saga.
Is Sly 3 - Honour Among Thieves still worth playing in 2026?
Released in 2005 on PS2, Sucker Punch's third project closes the trilogy by widening the open hubs further and fleshing out the band of burglars with new accomplices of varied skills. The multi phase heists, the variety of situations and a few playable stereoscopic sequences enrich an already proven formula. The cel shaded art direction and the humour keep all their charm. A slight sense of repetition and a lowered difficulty make themselves felt. A generous and warm trilogy finale, recommended for fans of platforming adventure and for followers of Sly Cooper.
