<\/strong>Uncharted 4 and Uncharted: The Lost Legacy get a joint re-release reminding us of the greatness of these bombastic action adventures<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been long enough since 2016\u2019s Uncharted 4: A Thief\u2019s End<\/a> came out that I kind of missed Nathan Drake, the breezy, globetrotting, treasure-hunting star of the Uncharted series. In contrast to developer Naughty Dog\u2019s other PlayStation series The Last of Us, a rather harrowing post-apocalyptic meditation on human darkness, Uncharted is a straightforwardly fun and light-hearted action-movie story. You never have to think too hard about what you\u2019re doing or why, and as long as you can surrender your will to the game \u2013 for there is little room for improvisation in these climbing puzzles, shootouts and well-acted story scenes \u2013 you\u2019ll have a good time.<\/p>\n

Back then I was ready to see the back of Nathan Drake. His quips had started to feel predictable, the Indiana Jones setpieces of his global adventures \u2013 collapsing ledges, trap-filled tombs, cursed treasure \u2013 even more so. This game is a farewell to him, wringing a surprising amount of pathos from the cast and their relationships to each other (particularly Nathan and his wife, Elena, who share an adorable scene in front of a PlayStation in their front room in the opening hours that still hits just as well now). This series had run out of road, with no further far-flung corners of the world or secret character backstories to explore, and in retrospect it is easier to appreciate this as a victory tour for a developer that really mastered the blockbuster cinematic action game.<\/p>\n
