Sly 2: Band of Thieves is an action stealth video game developed by Sucker Punch Productions and published by Sony Computer Entertainment. It was released in 2004 for PlayStation 2. It is the sequel to the game Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus and part of the Sly Cooper video game series.
In Sly 2: Band of Thieves, players primarily control the protagonist Sly, with the ultimate goal of acquiring pieces of the character Clockwerk[a] in each world. Gameplay is similiar to the game's predecessors but features various improvements. This includes features a health meter for characters, modifications to combat, a mission hub, and revamped gameplay for side characters, Bentley and Murray. Characters can improve using powerups and skill upgrades which can be unlocked by opening safes in each world, purchased by collecting coins, or and purchasing them from safehouses via Thiefnet.
Band of Thieves received generally favorable reviews and is often considered to be one of the greatest PlayStation 2 games of all time.
