Bentley's Hackpack is a standalone minigame pack released on February 5, 2013, promoting and coinciding with the North American release of Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time on the same date by Sanzaru Games.[3] Players take control of Bentley and have access to three of the arcade machines at Bentley's Arcade, which feature more challenging versions of the three hacking minigames in Thieves in Time.[4]

The game is available for both the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita via the PlayStation Store. This game is a part of Sony's cross-buy initiative, allowing purchasers of the PlayStation 3 version of the game to receive a free copy for the PlayStation Vita via the PlayStation Network. The game was released for the PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, iOS, and Android devices.[5] Bentley's Hackpack was made available via PlayStation Plus Premium's cloud gaming on PC and modern PlayStation consoles in September 2022, alongside other titles in the Sly Cooper series.[6]
