*The new level revealed is Medieval England. The ancestor that Sly will meet is Sir Galleth of the Order of Knights of Cooper. Sly dons an archer costume that allows him to aim his arrows in first person, and then shoot them, allowing the player to manually direct the arrow to a target. These were used in a circus deathtrap level, where Sly activated the targets to go through the deathtrap-infested obstacle course.
*The villain was not revealed, but hinted to be an insane circus owner. He/she captured Sir Galleth and dressed him up in a harlequin costume, locked up in the deathcourse circus. Sly meets up and rescues him at the end of the mission.
*Some Rioichi gameplay was also shown. Steve Blum is voicing him. Rioichi is shown to jump to VERY high heights, and can navigate security systems easily. Also, pickpocketing guards for extra treasure will return as a feature.
*A loose release date of Fall 2012 was confirmed.
