UNCHARTED: DRAKE'S FORTUNE
A 400-year-old clue in the coffin of Sir Francis Drake sets Nathan Drake on an exploration for the fabled treasure of El Dorado, leading to the discovery of a forgotten island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The search turns deadly when Drake becomes stranded on the island and hunted by mercenaries. Outnumbered and outgunned, Drake and his companions must fight to survive as they begin to unravel the terrible secrets hidden on the Island.
UNCHARTED 2: AMONG THIEVES
Down on his luck, Drake is lured back into the treacherous world of thieves and mercenary treasure-seekers he had sought to leave behind. When a mysterious artifact propels Drake on an expedition to find the legendary Himalayan valley of Shambhala, he finds himself embroiled in a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse against a fugitive war criminal whos after more than just the fabled riches of the lost city. Caught in a web of deception and plunged into an increasingly deadly pursuit that tests the limits of his endurance, Drake will be forced to risk everything but has his luck finally run out?
UNCHARTED 3: DRAKE'S DECEPTION
A search for the fabled Atlantis of the Sands propels fortune hunter Nathan Drake on a daring trek into the heart of the Arabian Desert, a journey that pits him and his mentor Victor Sullivan against the occult treachery of a shadowy clandestine organization and its ruthless leader. When the terrible secrets of this lost city are unearthed, Drakes quest descends into a desperate bid for survival that strains the limits of his endurance and forces him to confront his deepest fears.
UNCHARTED 4: A THIEF'S END
Set three years after the events of Uncharted 3: Drakes Deception, Nathan Drake has presumably left the world of fortune hunting behind. However, it doesnt take long for adventure to come calling when Drakes brother, Sam, resurfaces seeking his help to save his own life and offering an adventure Drake cant resist. On the hunt for Captain Henry Averys long-lost treasure, Sam and Drake set off to find Libertalia, the pirate utopia deep in the forests of Madagascar. Uncharted 4: A Thiefs End takes players on a journey around the globe, through jungle isles, urban cities and snow-capped peaks on the search for Averys fortune.
Expect the teamwork, over-the-top action-adventure, and detail-rich gameplay environments youve come to expect from the Uncharted series. Uncharted 4 Multiplayer introduces a number of new systems to elevate gameplay including Sidekicks, Mysticals, a grappling hook, and a deeper weapon list than previous multiplayer modes. All future maps and modes will be included for no extra cost.
The grappling hook allows for swift travel across the map using designated grapple points. Players can melee other players while swinging on a point to down them with one punch. You can also do a charged melee attack with the hook by holding down L1. This attack will also down an enemy with only one hit.
Uncharted 4 Multiplayer lets you deploy Mysticals, letting you harness some of the well-known supernatural elements from the Uncharted games to aid your team in attaining victory. There are five Mysticals:
- WRATH OF EL DORADO When thrown, the El Dorado sarcophagus from Uncharted 1 appears to unleash spirits that track down the enemies near where it is placed, and damage them.
- SPIRIT OF DJINN The Djinn magic from Uncharted 3 imbues the player with the ability to teleport short distances, but they wont be able to take cover.
- CINTAMANI STONE Activating this mystical from Uncharted 2 revives Downed allies within its area of effect to full health instantly.
- STAFF OF AYAR MANCO This staff, from the Uncharted: The Fourth Labyrinth novel, casts a magical force across an entire map revealing where the opposing team is located. It will also show up on the mini-map and can be destroyed.
- INDRAS ETERNITY From the Uncharted: Eye of Indra motion comic, this Mystical slows down any enemy that enters its' visible area of effect.
Sidekicks are another loadout option, which spawns an NPC ally, each with a unique skill to help you or your teammates along. Sidekicks will earn you cash as they fulfill their role. There are four Sidekicks, each with a specific function:
- SNIPER defends a location with a sniper rifle to take out members of the opposing team
- SAVIOR field medic who will revive Downed players, hand out ammo and help your team replenish their Gear faster
- HUNTER when called in, hunts down the nearest enemy and puts them into a hold for the player to KO them
- BRUTE heavily armored with a lot of fire power but slow moving
- WARM UP PLAYLIST - This playlist gives players the opportunity to explore the many new mechanics that are available. You will only be able to play in this playlist for a certain number of matches, to help you understand the multiplayer mechanics before joining the fight.
- TEAM DEATHMATCH - A fight to the end with teammates at your side. The goal is to score a certain number of points to win, with each enemy KO being worth one point.
- RANKED TEAM DEATHMATCH - In Ranked Team Deathmatch, Ranks range from Bronze III to Diamond I. Youll be awarded points for winning a match, and points will be deducted for losing. When you acquire the necessary number of points, youll enter into Qualifiers. At this point, a player is given the opportunity to increase his or her Rank by winning a certain number of the next few matches. Failing to do so will knock the player out of Qualifiers, and he or she must earn points again for another attempt.
- COMMAND - In this mode, youll capture Command Sites for a steady flow of points, or knock out enemy Captains for a large point bonus. Command emphasizes teamwork and a large part of that comes from protecting your Captain. Whichever player contributes the most points to the teams objective is the Team Captain, and will receive bonuses, such as cheaper In-Match Store Items, the ability to revive teammates faster, and more health when downed. As the Captain gains objective points without being KOed, the Captain goes up a Level to a max level of three, which increases the effectiveness of the Captain bonuses. However, at higher levels, the Captain is more visible to the enemy.
- PLUNDER - A 4v4 objective mode similar to capture the flag. The goal is to place the idol in your team's treasure box. The first team to get 3 captures wins.
- TRIALS - Set up as pseudo competitive matches, players go up against enemy NPC opponents with the goal of getting a high score using specific multiplayer mechanics. Each of the 10 Trials will include different levels of difficulty and will award Relics for completion.
OFFICIAL GAF SCREENSHOT THREAD
Game Informer | 9.5/10
A Thief Ends is the best Uncharted yet, delivering a story I didnt want to end, and an adventure that concludes with a hell of a payoff. The wow factor of the world exploding under Drakes feet has diminished in the years following Uncharted 2, but those moments are still effective, and a true showpiece of the developers exquisite craftsmanship for world and gameplay design.
GameSpot | 10/10
In its writing, in its design, in its understanding of what makes games unique, Uncharted 4 is something to aspire to. It's a shining example. And we'll be talking about it for years to come.
Polygon | 9/10
There is nothing cheap about how Naughty Dog has decided to retire this franchise no door is left open for a crass surprise sequel and there's nothing ambiguous about its resolution. Every other Uncharted game has, to varying degrees, posed a question "can a thief be good?" and summarily moved on without wagering a guess. In finding an answer, Uncharted 4's story soars, and presents a moving, fulfilling finale.
GamingTrend | 10/10
It takes great strides to outclass its previous entries because it knows there wont be another chance. From the opening moments to the credits rolling, Uncharted 4 is built from the ground up to close the curtain on the series with its most well-rounded, personal, and fine-tuned entry. With its new and polished mechanics, unrivaled technical prowess, human story, and thrilling action, nothing in Uncharted 4 is less than top tier. In saying goodbye, Uncharted soars to its highest heights, and bids farewell to an icon with a finale befitting of the history that preceded it.
