As part of its annual Days of Play promotion, PlayStation has revealed that three PS2 games are heading to PS Plus Premium next month — and one of them's bound to go down well with fans of a certain platforming franchise...
That's right, Sly Cooper is finally coming to PS5, kind of. Sucker Punch's 2002 title Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus — known simply as Sly Raccoon in Europe — is the headline act here. It'll be joined by fellow PS2 games Tomb Raider: Legend and Star Wars: The Clone Wars on the 11th June.
Okay, so it's not the broadest lineup of PS2 classics, but it's good to see that Sony's actually pushing games from its legendary console. Here's hoping that this is just the beginning.

@Specky Maybe, maybe not. This is a new emulator.
The Tomb Raider Legend/Anniversary/Underworld trilogy are really decent — surprised to see the first entry getting a re-issue of sorts.
