The August 2011 edition of the Official Playstation Magazine Italy has hinted at the existence of the long-awaited Syphon Filter 4, with the title reportedly gearing up for a release in Winter 2012. Fans of the stealthy third-person shooting franchise have been clambering for information regarding a new iteration following a supposed leak on the official US Playstation website - in which details of the sequel and a rough logo were accidently posted and quickly taken down.
Syphon Filter 4 is rumored to be a sequel to PSP title Syphon Filter: Logan's Shadow and is in development at SCE London Studio - it will also utilize a visually advanced engine. The respected publication revealed that the title will release exclusively for PS3 in Q4 2012, corresponding with previous rumors which surfaced in June, 2011.
