The announcement of Uncharted: The Lost Legacy was an exciting moment at the PSX, and now Naughty Dog has shed some more light on what we can expect from the game.
Speaking to the PlayStation Magazine UK, studio Creative Director Shaun Escayg said, “It will be tonally different, but in the same context of the Uncharted world. India’s got really nice iconography: hidden temples and weird deities we can play off of, so it’s a perfect setting for Uncharted: The Lost Legacy.”
Game Director Kurt Margenau also added that there will be some differences in the gameplay. “I would say we’re going a little more wide this time. I don’t want to give too much away, but it’s something we’re excited about on the gameplay side, this kind of contrast of an urban setting and a rural setting; a tighter experience and more open experience,” he said.
Expanding on why Naughty Dog is releasing the title as a standalone expansion rather than a DLC for Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End,Escaygsaid, ““It started as DLC, but we couldn’t find… well, we needed a longer time for the story to develop, and now I would say it’s a story expansion. That’s how we’re terming it.”
Uncharted: The Lost Legacy is set to release for the PlayStation 4 sometime later this year.
