PlayStation 3 and Vita title Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time will be released in Europe on 27th March 2013, publisher Sony has announced.

The game supports PlayStation's Cross Buy feature - pick up a PS3 copy and you'll get a code to download the game on Vita.

Sony has also confirmed some nifty AR functionality to find extra treasures when using the two systems in unison.

Cross-save support is also included, meaning you'll be able to pick up your game progress on-the-go.

Thieves in Time will be the fourth main title featuring sneaky raccoon Sly, who also popped up recently in Super Smash Bros. Brawl clone PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale. It's being developed by Sly Cooper HD Collection studio Sanzaru, while series creators Sucker Punch move on to other things.
