Written with artificial intelligence.
A new Uncharted game featuring Nathan Drake is reportedly in the works at Naughty Dog, according to a recent report. Shaun Escayag, who directed Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, is leading the project, although specifics about Drake's role remain unclear.
Development Details
According to a report from MP1st, a new Uncharted game featuring Nathan Drake is currently under development at Naughty Dog. This upcoming title is not a remake and is expected to be the next release from the studio following the anticipated launch of their game Intergalactic next year.
Leadership and Speculation
Shaun Escayag, known for his work on Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, is at the helm of this new project. While Nathan Drake will be involved in some capacity, it is still uncertain whether he will take on a leading role, a supporting character, or make a brief appearance. Escayag has hinted at the project on social media, including a recent trip to Trinidad for research, where he shared a photo of an ancient-looking cannon.
Future of the Franchise
Naughty Dog has also confirmed multiple projects related to The Last of Us, beyond the existing HBO series. Neil Druckmann, the series creator, has not disclosed the exact formats of these upcoming projects, which could range from games to other media. Fans are speculating that at least one of these will be a video game, with hopes for The Last of Us Part 3.
Release Timeline
The new Uncharted game is not expected to be released for at least two years. Uncharted 4, which concluded Nathan Drake's original story, was released a decade ago, but the possibility remains for new adventures, especially with the introduction of his daughter, Cassie, who seems to share her father's adventurous spirit.
