Sucker Punch Productions, L.L.C. was founded in October 1997, and has built its reputation by creating innovative, stylish, critically acclaimed character-based action adventure games. Based in Bellevue, WA, the team is behind the Sly Cooper series of games that debuted on the PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system, and the Infamous series created on the PlayStation 3 platform.
The company's roots began at Microsoft, where the co-founders all worked in a variety of productivity and software development applications. All shared a love for videogames, yet only one had games development experience. Undaunted, the group left Microsoft in 1997 to start their own videogames development studio. The company's first title, the critically hailed Rocket: Robot on Wheels for Nintendo 64, served as a springboard to bigger projects.
On August 2, 2011, Sony Computer Entertainment announced that it had acquired Sucker Punch, making it the sixteenth studio to join the SCE WWS family.
