That&#8217;s according to a report from <a href=\"https:\/\/mp1st.com\/news\/new-uncharted-game-development-naughty-dog-headed-lost-legacy-director\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">MP1st<\/a>, which said the game is bringing back series protagonist Nathan Drake in some form, suggesting he may not be the game&#8217;s lead.<\/p>\n<p>The next Uncharted is also said to be a fresh entry and not a remake of any of the existing games. The project is reportedly being directed by Shaun Escayag, a studio veteran who also directed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurogamer.net\/games\/uncharted-the-lost-legacy\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Uncharted: The Lost Legacy<\/a>. Noted insider NateTheHate corroborated the report, saying on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.resetera.com\/threads\/playstation-studios-ot51-insert-t%C5%8Dkon.1575361\/page-355#post-161227288\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Resetera<\/a> that Escayag is indeed working on a new Uncharted game.<\/p>\n<p>Escayag had left Naughty Dog to become creative director of Marvel&#8217;s Avengers at Crystal Dynamics, but later returned to the studio to work on an unnamed project, which now appears to be this Uncharted game.<\/p>\n<p>The following paragraph includes spoilers for Uncharted 4&#8217;s ending.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"button video\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=3dkDuDtUyU4\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Watch on YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Assuming the game is a continuation of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurogamer.net\/games\/uncharted-4-thiefs-end\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Uncharted 4: A Thief&#8217;s End<\/a> story, one possible way it may go is for Drake and Elena Fisher&#8217;s daughter, Cassie, who&#8217;s introduced at the end of the game, to lead this next adventure.<\/p>\n<p>End of Uncharted 4 spoilers.<\/p>\n<p>Naughty Dog will reportedly shift to developing the mysterious game after shipping Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, the studio&#8217;s current main project, which does not yet have a release target. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurogamer.net\/intergalactic-the-heretic-prophet-is-naughty-dogs-most-expansive-and-expensive-game-says-neil-druckmann\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Naughty Dog recently said Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet will be properly revealed in 2027<\/a>, suggesting it may be released that same year. Given that timeline, we&#8217;re not likely to see the Uncharted game for quite some time yet.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond a re-release in 2022, the last Uncharted game was 2017&#8217;s The Lost Legacy, itself an Uncharted 4 spin-off starring some of the same characters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Uncharted series developer Naughty Dog is reportedly early in development on a new game in the action-adventure series.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":788577,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[96,59,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-788576","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-entertainment","tag-gb","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/788576","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=788576"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/788576\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/788577"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=788576"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=788576"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=788576"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
