After months of waiting, Naughty Dog have finally let everything out of the bag on the sequel to Uncharted: Drakes Fortune. The new game will officially be called “Uncharted 2: Among Thieves”.
The first trailer released shows a beaten-up Nathan Drake trudging through a snowy landscape and picking up an artefact, But thats it.
The next issue of GameInformer, involves a teaser and is a little more helpful.
“Nathan Drake returns with a whole new adventure which revolves around the 13th century explorer Marco Polo and his voyages,” says GameInformer. “The new PlayStation 3 title will add a free climbing mechanic and stealth gameplay. Players can also expect all-new locations, characters and a focus on the game’s story.”
A lengthier trailer will be shown during the 2008 Video Game Awards show, airing on December 14, 2008, at 9:00 PM (pacific – 5am UK) on Spike, says Naughty Dog.
Video, after the cut.
Nathan’s looking a little worse for wear there.
Uncharted: Drakes Fortune is one of the few real shining gems of the PlayStation 3. A sequel can’t come soon enough.
They should do a Drake/Lara Croft crossover… I think that’d be cool.
