The PS4 and PS5 versions of Sly 2 have been patched, removing the ability to skip cutscenes by pressing start (Universal Cutscene Skip / UCSS).

Since v1.0 is inaccessible on a PS5, we have moved all v1.0 runs performed on a PS5 to a Legacy board stored on the Category Extensions page. That board is linked here. Only runs performed on or before 24 February 2025 are eligible to be featured there. Any v1.0 run on a PS5 played after this date is ineligible for any leaderboard.

On the main Sly 2 page, the version split has been renamed to "Classic" and "PS4 v1.0". Classic houses all versions except for PS4 v1.00, including the updated versions of PS4 and PS5.

Obtaining v1.00 on a PS4 requires the use of a computer program called RewindPS4; it is a simple process and doesn't require console modifications. A tutorial can be found below.

For the moment, there have been no changes for Slyfecta or Category Extensions.

Regarding these changes and the broader status of PS4 v1.0 on the leaderboards, we encourage runners to share their opinions in the Sly Cooper Speedruns Discord. You are also welcome to direct any questions there.
