Game Informer April Cover: Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
- Thread starter TheBioLover
- Start date
It's a standalone expansion that was originally planned as a DLC pack for Uncharted 4, but majorly expanded.
It is getting a physical release, so it's almost assuredly at least $40 as it's very rare for physical products to ship for less than that.
We have no idea of the size, but maybe the article will say something.
That said, I think the more interesting implication is that we might get more of this kind of thing given how long it takes to make games now, and some of the comments in the video are interesting toward that end.

Honestly, as someone who still liked UC4, I agree. I'm playing through Rise of the Tomb Raider now and I think that game is actually just a lot more fun to play than UC4 was. Don't get me wrong the writing, story, etc are vastly superior in UC4 but I'll be honest I missed some of the action from precious installments with that game.
Hoping this features a lot more set pieces / combat like the older games
that would be even better - i want UC to be a linear, set-piece driven action adventure game with excellent pacing. it's why i love UC2 so much.
I think Kurt (the game's Director) said at the PSX panel that this might be even more open then Uncharted 4
perfect.

Yeah that cover really is awful but I'm excited to see some more news on this.

Curious to see how the thought process and approach to design that Kurt & Shaun has as opposed to Neil & Bruce.
I Think they confirmed that it is in Post setting! correct me if i am wrong .

What with it being so much more substantial, how do I know whether or not I'll have this? I bought the 75 euro or whatever digital Deluxe edition, and I think I remember that version including the single player DLC.

I assume (hope) it's pre, but I'm not sure. Anybody knows?
Aw
I thought it made more sense to be pre-Uncharted 4.
Yay!
Pretty sure you will be fine if its the one with the season pass before it was took down.

Pre if remembering correctly from PSX.

im thinking more along the lines of Infamous: First Light. bigger than a DLC release but not big enough to be called a full AAA production title.
mid tier game to give Chloe a chance to carry the uncharted torch going forward?

Please don't stereotype the fuck out of Indian locales. There are modern cities in India too, not just slums, ancient structures and temples.

Not in terms of pacing (but given it's a smaller game that's probably the case anyway), but the mechanics in 4 and more open combat design were easily the best in the series.

Yeah, the triple pack. Guess I'm good then.

Hopefully it means sidequests and stuff.
That would be terrible.
Why would you want side quest in Uncharted?

Yeah, it might not be a bad idea. Get rid of all the tedious traversal segments too.
I'm assuming that means backtracking and maybe some kind of mini hub world or something.

Chloe's face looks REALLY weird. Naughty Dog have gone full on NetherRealm on us.

Speaking of which, isn't it about time we had a Destiny II cover story?

Can't wait. Really excited for this thanks to the staff they put on it.

It takes place around a year after U4.

Interesting to see how they do this .
Bought the season pass before it was discontinued just so I can have this game already payed for (and potentially cheaper). Love UC4 and while I am done with the franchise I like the idea of playing with Chloe which really took me by surprise, thought for sure it was going to be Sam.
oh FUCK yes

It's really a shame that Sony forces Naughty Dog to make more standalone uncharted content instead of giving them the creative freedom to make whatever they want. Clearly the devs there deserve to be unshackled to unleash their creativity in new franchises rather than pumping out sequels or side content for existing IP, but Sony forces them to make safer content. /s
To have something more to do besides story missions, sidequests expanding the story.
Also I like a lot the gunplay and gameplay of this game a lot so more to kill and to do the better for me.

The multiplayer part of the game is already there for that though.

Uncharted 3's E3 trailer Chloe is still the best looking, hottest and yet classy Chloe.
Lost Legacy Chloe looks fucking weird. I hope they listen to the complaints and change her up a bit.
U2 Chloe looked ok but very cartoony.

This DLC was always plan it just got bigger .
They are making what they want with TLOU part 2 .

Sony let them make TLoU and you can try new things with these smaller standalone games as well. I also believe they'll create a new IP for PS5. Sci-fi, hopefully.
I think God of War will take it next year.
i think you have missed the PSX trailer, also look closely at the cover , it will be as expected.
