As Sony prepares to deliver two remasters of PS4 episodes of Uncharted to the PS5 catalogue, the heads of the series are talking loudly about their future.
To mark the release of Uncharted Legacy of Thieves Collection, Creative Director Shaun Escayg and Director Kurt Margenau hosted a series of interviews to look back on the eventful adventures of one Nathan Drake and Chloe Frazier.
I’m not a thief
Naughty Dog Studio has been particularly busy developing (and testing) The Last of Us Part II, and yet the series may continueas Escayg said Games Radar :
Uncharted is about hearts, struggles, complex characters and their perseverance, and I think that struggle is in all of us. It’s Uncharted’s “special sauce” that makes you want to return. We cherish this universe so much.
Looking ahead, I think it’s safe to say that we can never say never. Uncharted is a license we love—that the studio loves. It’s a world we want to rediscover. I can say that.
This potentially leaves the door open for other adventures, provided the winds are favorable and the treasury isn’t too cryptic.
While waiting for more official news, let’s recall the few new features that Uncharted Legacy of Thieves Collection brings:
- A fidelity mode to play in native 4K at 30 frames per second
- A performance mode that offers a frame rate of 60 frames per second
- And finally a new Performance+ mode that offers 1080p display at 120 frames per second on compatible displays
The Uncharted Legacy of Thieves Collection will be available on PS5 on January 28th, 2022. PC players can already pre-order their version at steam and theEpic game store pending release, still planned for “2022”.
