Two years after the released of smash hit Uncharted, Naughty Dog looks to make lightning strike with its sequel Uncharted 2. How do you improve on a masterpiece? By adding larger than life set-pieces, new characters, a love triangle and the addition of a brand new multiplayer mode! Uncharted 2 is not only a worthy successor to Uncharted but would end up being the blueprint for the series going forward.
Known in the previous generation for the critically acclaimed Jak and Daxter series and the Crash Bandicoot series in the generation before that, Naughty Dog established themselves as a developer to watch in the formative years of the PlayStation 3. With Uncharted, Naughty Dog abandoned the cartoon worlds and characters that had defined their previous development and looked to reinvent themselves with a realistic third person action/adventure game. Would this gamble pay off? Absolutely.
We’ve already seen Naughty Dog blow the world away with the Uncharted Drake’s Fortune and how they made lightning strike twice with its sequel Uncharted 2 Among Thieves, but can this prestigious developer go for the hat trick and create a successful third entry in the franchise with Uncharted 3 Drake’s Deception? Or will it fall prey to not living up to the originals, as many sequels tend to do? Rest assured that Uncharted 3 not only lives up to the Uncharted name but lets the series go out on the PlayStation 3 on a high note.
