Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection coming to PS5 and PC

Naughty Dog is set to release the remastered bundle of Uncharted 4: A Thief's End and Uncharted: The Lost Legacy in 2022.

[RaidenBlack]

So no trilogy for PC?

[JEECE]

The Trilogy is already in 60 fps.

[Tacoboto]

He asked about PC.

The popular rumor leading in to today was the full five game collection on PC.

[JEECE]

@Tacoboto

Actually he stealth edited after I responded.

[LordoftheCritics]

Sony you make me happy. Been wanting to play this on pc.

[Tacoboto]

The Nathan Drake Collection doesn't have a PS4 Pro patch leaving these just at 1080p60. I wonder if they're doing more robust changes to bring it up to modern standards (4K and unlocked frame rates) before bringing those three to PS5/PC.

[RaidenBlack]

I have doubts now, that ND will at all tinker with Nathan Drake collection any more.
I guess they'll stop at U4.

[SlothLordPootus]

@Raiden Did ND do any work on the collection initially? I thought it was all BluePoint?

[EvertonFC]

I guess the whole point is too get PC gamers to buy a playstation to buy the other games?

[LordoftheCritics]

I think the whole point is to get more people to experience the game.

Imagine making a movie and only one group of people got to see it? Pc acts like that middle ground between all the console exclusivity. Its the no mans land.

Also if I was a dev, I'd like to see it in its full glory with PC graphics and shooter controls with a mouse.

[garos82]

@oh give it a rest LordoftheCritics. Comparing it to movies is beyond idiotic and you do understand the point of exclusives yeah? You know experiences you can only have on a certain machine to encourage people to purchase said machine. I would never want to see Breath of the Wild on Playstation, in fact i want to buy a switch just to experience that

[LordoftheCritics]

@garos82

''Comparing it to movies is beyond idiotic''

So you're telling me that filmmakers who make movies with stunning audiovisuals would not want their film to get an Imax level of screening? Or the best possible screening and the most reach/set of eyes for their movie? Also why cant we compare it? It is an entertainment/artistic experience.

''You know experiences you can only have on a certain machine to encourage people to purchase said machine.''

Similarly, some movies are best watched on Imax and yet they are still available to be watched on your phone as well. Does not affect Imax sales, ppl who want an Imax experience go for it. If it was Imax exclusive, that would hurt the movie sales. In TV/movies, exclusivity exists and people hate it. Apple tv, netflix, hbo, disney plus etc

''to encourage people to purchase said machine''

Yes those ppl will still buy a PS5, the pc market is a completely different budget lvl and most console gamers may not even buy into the pc market. Here the devc/publisher makes a sale on a platform that is not directly in competition with the exclusive platform they are supporting. A similar budget lvl platform release would be the problem.

[LordoftheCritics]

@garos82

''I would never want to see Breath of the Wild on Playstation, in fact i want to buy a switch just to experience that''

What if every game you liked was on their own exclusive consoles. Would you buy all those consoles? 100 of them?

[Tacoboto]

"I would never want to see Breath of the Wild on Playstation"

Oh totally agree, exclusives are sacred, what makes gaming so great! It's disgusting that Alan Wake is going to be coming to PlayStation now too. KOTOR Remake console-launch-exclusive not on Xbox? Total cancer, destruction of gaming as we know it.

Final Fantasy XVI going PS exclusive is totally one-step-forward two-steps-back. It should only be on Nintendo again like the franchise originally exclusively was. At least those vile Xbox cretins aren't getting it so they'll have to spend money on another platform.

That's you, garos.

[NeoGamer232]

Honestly this just looked like a basic port/remaster. All they did was turn up the graphics resolution and framerate. The rest looked exactly like the PS4 version I played.

[RaidenBlack]

Depends how much are they charging for existing PS4 owners.

[NeoGamer232]

@RaidenBlack
For PS4 owners the update should be free. There is nothing in the video that makes that game significantly better then when I played it on my PS4 Pro. No new content. Nothing.

People have to quit letting publishers off the hook for ports disguised as remasters. I can have an old PC, then go and buy a new PC. I can download all my games again, and play them with the new enhanced settings available on my PC for free. Same with mobile games. But for some reason some console publishers feel that they should be able to re-charge gamers to upscale the resolution and framerate of a game with minor improvements. Remedy's Alan Wake, Uncharted, Call of Duty Cold War, Madden 21, etc. all put a price on being able to run the game on both last gen and current gen hardware. I can't believe gamers fall for that.

I saw Uncharted Lost Odyssey and Alan Wake's trailer.... I'm out on both games. I loved Alan Wake and wanted to love the remaster, but frankly it was a lame attempt to update the game. I was in for it when I heard they had a remaster, but after seeing the trailer I am out.

[RaidenBlack]

That's what I meant to say, since the upgrades are minor, it all depends on the cost/charge.
If the damage to wallet is $0, then ok ... basic port/remaster as you say, no harm done.
But any more than that, it all starts to depend on PS's approach to the situation.
A $10 upgrade? $20? $40? A full fat $60?

[Flewid638]

Yet.

[porkChop]

I did find that really weird. Why would you give PC gamers the end of the story first?

[RaidenBlack]

But still ...
Look at what MS have been doing ...
They gave Fable 1, then Fable 3 and then Fable 1 Remastered to PC gamers.
Also, Gears 1, Gears 1 Remastered, Gears 4 and Gears 5.
And ... Halo 1,2,3,ODST,Reach & 4 ... not 5 ... and then Infinite.
...
PCMR: poker face
MS: Take it or leave it.
Sony: I like that idea.

[LOGICWINS]

Do people who already own these games get a free upgrade?

[Muigi]

I hope but probably not.

[Tacoboto]

It seems to be a bundled single SKU so that makes it appear to be an instant-no.

[Atticus_finch]

It's going to be a free upgrade and a PS5 branded physical is my guess.

[1nsomniac]

Sony have already clearly stated over the last few days that their first party studios will not be providing any free upgrades from this point forward.

Yea, surprising, N4G hasn’t been taking about that, I know.

[Atticus_finch]

Weird because I have played HZD, Ghost, Tlou2, Days Gone, R&C, GOW and they were all free upgrades.

[Christopher]

There were multiple articles and opinion pieces talking about it. Please don't lie.

[outsider1624]

Well this sucks! I already own UC4 and TLL on PS4. Which means us getting a free update is moot. Considering tlou2 got a free upgrade.

[1nsomniac]

So I’m going to say it again a little slower and louder… “FROM THIS POINT FORWARD” do you understand what that means?

Sony issued a statement that HZD was the last game they will be providing a free patch/update for. Going forward from this point they will not provide any more free updates.

[SoulWarrior]

They gave away UC4 to everyone on the plus collection, so I very much doubt it.

[Popsicle]

I wish the cross gen stuff would end. One of the several reasons is so we are not constantly hearing about and discussing free upgrades or paid upgrade paths. It is time to move on from 8th gen.

[kingPoS]

Unfortunately, it's going to continue for a while. So long as PS5's remain hard to come by at retail prices, cross gen games will live on.

Gateway MT6706 2008

[Popsicle]

@kingpos I agree to an extent, but many more systems will be available in 21, 22, and 23. There is know legitimate reason for a company that “believes in generations” to be releasing exclusive triple AAA games across two generations 2 years after their next gen console is released.

[kingPoS]

I give it about another year before cross gen games come to an end.

Meanwhile today, September 9 2021, at Walmart Target Bestbuy Gamestop Amazon, you can't find one at msrp short of having the devil's luck while aping a restock app.

All those ps5 five games, returnal demon souls and all the other next gen exclusive games that I can't play on my PS4, alot of people will conclude.. f*** it, why bother, it's not like I'm going get one any time soon.

And that's a problem.

Nothing breeds resentment more than being left (and priced) out. (by scalpers)

Gateway MT6706 2008

[CrimsonWing69]

Of course not.

[EvertonFC]

Jim Ryan said the other day on playsation blog after hzd moving fwd all ps4/ps5 games will have a £10 upgrade fee.

[Jls1]

i wonder if it includes the multiplayer

[RaidenBlack]

Slightly unrelated; I was also hoping for the Factions 2 teaser.

[Father__Merrin]

Won't ever support this

[Sayai jin]

Countless PC players will.

[Atticus_finch]

Plenty will be dying to run those ND graphics.

[MadLad]

@new

The fact there's many storefronts doing very well for themselves says much less than you're trying to make it seem.

[DiRtY]

I will probably give it a shot on PC.

[TheDibbler]

Why would you not support it?

PC players getting access doesn't take away from your enjoyment of the franchise. If your issue is the PS5 update being a paid one then I could see where you are coming from but in that case you wouldn't have to buy it and you could play the existing game via backwards compatibility.

[Atticus_finch]

You don't have too. I was waiting to replay U4 and LL since I figured there would be Ps5 version. I also have no doubt it will be free upgrade. And
PC players will funding the next ND game what's there to hate.

[Omegasyde]

I don’t see this as a free upgrade

[Atticus_finch]

It isn't free because PC players will be paying for it.

[MadLad]

Can you stop being obviously salty just because another group gets to play a game?

Sony acquired a company purely to make PC ports. PC people are happy to buy quality games. They're happy to buy PC ports; new or old.

Don't use it as a reason to dunk on them and try to bend logic so somehow it's still a giant win for Playstation only gamers. We both know the timing windows between Sony's releases are going to get smaller and smaller, and more and more games/series will be appearing on PC.

And let's be real; Sony hasn't exactly been great with the "free upgrades" idea as of late. They more and more are finding ways to make sure they're making a little more here and there.

[Extermin8or3_]

Mate it's not a free update they've literally said there won't be any more free upgrades.

[slayernz]

good for you feeling you need to tell the world you arent gonna play it....no one cares!

[Fntastic]

No surprise, the guy is always salty when it comes to PC stuff,he has a lot of hate for it for some reason.

[MadLad]

Oh no no.

He's totes a huge PC gamer.
He just hates everything about it, and loves to support anything that could hurt it's open ecosystem.

[GhostofHorizon]

Uncharted has been one of my favourite series since the first one, glad that more people are going to be able to play it.

[AzubuFrost]

Looking through a lot of ppls opinions about Uncharted via Reddit (outside of their fan page of course) many people are saying they're pretty average games.

[GhostofHorizon]

I can only speak for myself.

I wouldn't necessarily call games that are consistently game of the year contenders average though.

[TheDibbler]

The Uncharted games are pretty good in general. The original hasn't aged well but for the most part they are good games. The only thing that I never understood was why a certain bad guy would have so many henchmen. You can complete the game and see the stats where you killed like 1,500 dudes. Movie bad guys may have 30 to 50 henchmen working for them but in Uncharted there is just an ass load of bad guys like there is a rent an army program. I know it is just a game but I feel like they just throw way too many enemies in there but that is just a nitpick.

[LoveSpuds]

Most of 'those opinions' will be from people who have never played the games and simply hate anything that is popular on PlayStation.

Do you you honestly think that tens of millions of people would continue to buy each game in the series if they were average games? Were all those gaming websites and journalists in cahoots when each successive game got almost universal rave reviews?

The games were incredible when they launched, the earlier games may have aged now, but so has every other game from big franchises. The most recent games are fucking incredible experiences, full of spectacle, at times I could hardly believe what I was seeing in Uncharted 4.

[Omegasyde]

What Nakiro said.

Average games don’t get multiple GOTY awards.

[AzubuFrost]

Lovespuds
I'm sorry but I'm certain I was talking about users from REDDIT. These opinions I read aren't from N4G, where they spout blind hate and discrimination toward another company's game series.

Secondly these tens of millions of sales were probably because ND has a loyal fan base, which ppl bought sequels/spinoff because they want more Uncharted or anything Uncharted related. Hell I wouldn't be surprised if some folks here in N4G bought two or three copies of the same game, thus why sales are so high. And for others, Uncharted 4 mightve been their first Uncharted game Maybe that's why U4 or the Uncharted collection sales were so high, because newcomers fell for the hype and wanted to see why they were seeing so many Uncharrted commercials on TV or on billboards.

Regarding your universal rave reviews, like everybody in thus planet, those critics have their own opinions based on the series. Remember when GameSpot gave U4 and TLOU an 8 and ppl thought they were haters instead of blindly loving them because well, it's ND ffs. Just like how many of the redditors say they're average games. Notice that I said "many people", not ALL of the reddit users. I've read comments saying Uncharted is an awesome series they love to play because of this, this, and this. Whereas others were disappointed in the series because of this, this, and this.

Don't fucking assume just because ND releases a new game everybody across the globe is gonna love it and consider it GOTY. Because fun fact, not everybody is going to love it, and it's not because of fanboyism. If you step outside of the fan page and N4G, there's an entirely different side of folks who believe the Uncharted series is an average shooter with its own flaws.

[MadLad]

Honestly, even though I own both the PS3 and PS4 versions, they first 3 were kind of eh for me.

The original is actually pretty mediocre. Decent gunplay, but spongey and spammed enemies. Lackluster climbing mechanics.

Then 2 fixed all of that, but added pretty bad and inconsistent stealth mechanics.

3 was more of the same.

That said, I thought 4 was pretty damn fantastic.

Never played the spinoffs.

[Atticus_finch]

I'm excited that the MP might make a come back. It's really good.

[Knushwood Butt]

I have 3 folks on my friend list that still play UC4 multiplayer regularly.

They are 'friends' as I played to death a few years back.

I'm retired now, but yeah, I love that MP.

[AzubuFrost]

Boooo give us TLOU!!

[Atticus_finch]

I was waiting for that too. But I understand that the engine is being reworked to make what ever MP aspects their going for.

[Tedakin]

Uncharted >>>>>>>&g t;>>>>>>>& gt;>>>>>>> >>>>>>>. TLOU

[CaptainHenry916]

We didn't see nothing new from Naughty Dog. I was expecting the LOU2 multi-player

[Lore]

No Golden Abyss, no buy

[ajax17]

lol

[sero33]

i never played the lost legacy. tempted to try it out on pc though. hope its not a botchy port.

[NoFanBoy]

It is very good and worth playing , ended up be better than I thought it would be..

[Minute Man 721]

Was playing Lost Legacy but my PS4 broke, haven't found a PS5 yet

[Atticus_finch]

I highly recommend it.

[annoyedgamer]

The best is UC 1 to 3. 4 and stuff they made after started going downhill.

[XxINFERNUSxX]

The PC version will clearly do this game justice, another missed opportunity for not bringing the whole collection maybe even adding ray tracing to. No matter, using reshade will make this game look so much better. I suggest anyone on PC use reshade, you will see your games on a whole new level. 😀👍 But 60fps is not for me, not smooth enough, I notice a big difference when games drop below 100fps. For me I like gaming with FPS in the 100s @ 1080p and if it uses HDR I can use that to.

[NoFanBoy]

I would like to play it at 1440p/120fps if it's just 60fps then I may as well get it on PS5. Would of been nice if they just gave us a 60fps patch for free though, seems greedy.

[TheDibbler]

I'm with you on the PC but I don't feel as strongly about the 100+ fps train. I'd rather the game look nicer than run better at 1080p. 60 fps is good enough for me on the response/smooth front.

[NoFanBoy]

It should be able to run at 4k60 , 1440/120 but it depends how well it's ported and if they add extra graphical improvements etc.

[purple101]

Could it be because these 2 were PS4. So x86 architecture same as a pc.. Uncharted 1 & 2 were ps3.

So these 2 will scale up nicely. The others wouldn't.. I don't know .....

[iNcRiMiNaTi]

They could probably just port over the nathan drake collection which was on ps4 no?

[victorMaje]

I was kind of disappointed at this announcement. I love ND & have loved every Uncharted game since the first. But I was expecting something new from them. Factions 2.0, a new IP, or a new Uncharted adventure. Even some kind of announcement related to something new would have been nice. But nope, & for some reason they haven't even released a 60fps patch for UC4 & Lost Legacy on PS5.
Now I can say I'm stoked about all the other announcements, but it would have been nice to see something new from Naughty Dog.

[NoFanBoy]

I think we ain't getting the patch to force us to buy the games again, they are remaking TLoU apparently and I imagine a PC/PS5 remaster of the sequel is in the works. I would like to see a prequel of either Uncharted with younger Sully or TloU with younger Joel or a new IP.

[LoveSpuds]

Ooosh, count me in, two more platinum trophies to the collection. I love me some Uncharted.

[Knushwood Butt]

I have the UC4 plat on PS4 but never again - that gunfight in the multi-floored decaying building near the end on crushing difficulty was insane. Must have taken me over 100 attempts to beat it. That said, I did it without using any of the cheats. Still have the video of my eventual, successful attempt. Kinda looks easy in the video, but it was ***** hard!

[LoveSpuds]

Crushing always had pinch points in each game that could frustrate but the desire to plat these games is too much for me to resist.

I have a platinum in every uncharted release from the very first game on PS3, I can't break the cycle now 😅

[BrockEmSockEm]

God of War on PC would be amazing

[BlaqMagiq1]

Can't wait to enjoy these in 60fps!

[itBourne]

I just want MP, like seriously one of the best, want it to be reinvigorated

[Anghellic]

Sony double dipping on everything

[moomoo319]

Hype to see Uncharted 4 at high frame rates

[talocaca]

I swear that if they try to charge $70 for Unchartef 4 and Lost Legacy.....

[MadLad]

Game development is totes expensive, even when it's a AA game made by just a dozen people, or a simple remaster and port.

They might do everyone a major solid and only charge $60.

[NoFanBoy]

ebay, if you can wait a month I do anyway as I'm not paying 70 per game no matter how good it is, I expect it to be 60 though.

[Profchaos]

I'm not paying for this again I already brought the games on PS3, the trilogy on PS4 and uncharted 4 / LL on PS4 not to mention the vita game.

I'm not inclined to buy it again sorry ND.

[Atticus_finch]

You don't have to, only PC players have to.

[Profchaos]

I have been looking and there is zero official information about a free upgrade.

[hot4play]

Yeah, same situation here. Im a big fan. But kinda greedy move for Sony/ND to basically charge us again for PS5 upgrades of U4 and LL.

[Lionsguard]

I mean, aside from 60fps, how could this game possibly look even better? I have screenshots from this game that look like real life..

[ClayRules2012]

I hear ya, I just don’t see how. Some photos I took (cave level with Elena and Drake) Drake looks literally real, like when the ND panel showed him in their demonstration before the game came out at GDC or whatever that event was, and I’ve gotten pics of moments where drake’s hands are positioned a certain way, and the fingers/nails just look so lifelike, with mud mixed into the nails, with natural roundness on the fingers, no rough edges like many other games.(Detroit for example that has stunning lifelike graphics, but when Connor flips the coin) you can tell his fingers polygons aren’t as polished as other areas.

Just a few examples, truly don’t see how it could get better from a character model level detail. But foliage, I could see it, but we shall see

[TheEroica]

Eww.. Enough uncharted already. Do something else please.

[P_Bomb]

It’s been almost 5 and a half years since Uncharted 4.

[TheEroica]

I guess lost legacy doesn't exist huh? Further, naughty dog is a great developer and they've made their point with uncharted. Can they not create other games? Last of us and uncharted forever? Ew.

[skyrimer]

As someone who has already played all of them this doesn't make much sense, UC4 has a ton of story and characters from previous games, it would had made a lot more sense a UC1-3 collection than this, still great news though.

[ocelot07]

I never got around to platinum uncharted 4 and lost legacy like I did the others. If it's only a £10 upgrade I'll get it.

[lellkay]

Like I needed another reason to replay these games.

Oh well, count me in.

[ScootaKuH]

Nope. Not interested

[jznrpg]

I’ll buy this for super cheap like I bought the last collection . I think I got it for 8 or 9$ new
