Naughty Dog surprised everyone when they announced Uncharted: The Lost Legacy- Uncharted 4 was categorically supposed to be the last game in the series, so seeing a new entry announced so soon delighted a lot of series fans. However, fans shouldn’t get too comfortable with the idea of a new Uncharted game in a post Nathan Drake world, apparently- Naughty Dog have revealed to Game Informer that Uncharted: The Lost Legacy is likely to be the last game in the series.
“I would say that Naughty Dog doing an Uncharted after this is unlikely.” said Naughty Dog co-president Evan Wells. “I would never say never, but we’ve got The Last of Us Part II on our plates and there’s so much other stuff that [we want to explore]. It’d be hard. If we magically had that two-team, three-team studio, sure – it’d be great to keep doing it. We really love the franchise, but the studio has limited resources and lots of other ideas. I’d say the likelihood is low.”
Of course, Naughty Dog also said that Uncharted 4 would be the last game in the series, and yet here we are. So maybe there is hope after all!
