Sequel to Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception (2011), the fourth & last entry in the Uncharted series featuring Nathan Drake, will focus on “Nate, now a retired fortune hunter, getting forced back in the world of thieves.
He will embark on a globe-trotting journey in pursuit of a historical conspiracy behind a fabled pirate treasure. It’s his greatest adventure yet and will test his physical limits, his resolve, and ultimately what he’s willing to sacrifice to save the ones he loves.”
The game was delayed in March 2015 to allow additional development time and to make way for Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection release.
Uncharted 4 is “set three years after Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception, Nathan Drake has presumably left the world of fortune hunting behind.
It doesn’t take long for adventure to come calling when Drake’s brother, Sam, resurfaces seeking his help and offering an adventure Drake can’t resist. On the hunt for Captain Henry Avery’s long-lost treasure, Sam and Drake set off to find Libertalia, the pirate utopia deep in Madagascar.
Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End takes players on a journey through jungle isles, urban cities and snow-capped peaks on the search for Avery’s fortune.”
