Naughty Dog Reportedly in Early Development on Uncharted 5
Naughty Dog is reportedly in early development on a brand-new Uncharted game, according to multiple sources. VGC was first to break the news, citing insider sources who indicate the project is not a remake or remaster but an original entry in the long-running action-adventure series. The report suggests the new title will follow the studio's upcoming sci-fi adventure, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, positioning Uncharted 5 as a longer-term project rather than an imminent release.
The news will come as a welcome surprise to fans of the franchise, which last saw a mainline entry with Uncharted 4: A Thief's End in 2016, followed by the standalone spin-off The Lost Legacy in 2017. Polygon and Eurogamer have both corroborated the report, reinforcing that something is genuinely in motion at Naughty Dog. With the studio still focused on shipping Intergalactic, any formal announcement of a new Uncharted is likely still some way off, but the early development buzz signals that Nathan Drake's world, or perhaps a new hero's chapter in it, is very much alive at PlayStation.
