‘Uncharted 4’ Trailer released during ‘Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens’ detailed, dev hints at ambitious future plans
“Star Wars: The Force Awakens” may have been on everybody’s radar during its launch weekend. However, fans of “Uncharted 4” went to the showing with another agenda in mind. That is to catch the latest trailer of “Uncharted 4,” which was shown together with the movie’s launch.
U.S. moviegoers had a chance to take a peek at another “Uncharted 4” title, though this trailer was reportedly only available at select U.S. cinemas that showed “Star Wars: The Force Awakens.”
While this was teased by the official Sony Twitter channel, one fan has finally given some details of the trailer for “Uncharted 4.” Spotted by Gamepur, fan and NeoGAF user Abdiel stated that the trailer was shown off at an IMAX showing. The footage had a behind the scenes footage of actors Troy Baker and Nolan North as they were shooting a motion capture session. According to the NeoGAF user, there were more discussions between North and Baker, and a brief CG scene that was more of a highlight than the focus of the trailer.
Currently, these are the only details of the trailer that came with “Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens.” There is no online version of what was shown yet, though Sony may release it after the launch is over.
As far as details of “Uncharted 4” is concerned, developer Naughty Dog has not been lacking in this department. Naughty Dog and “Uncharted 4” Lead Multiplayer Designer Robert Cogburn sat down with GameSpot to talk a little more about the game, especially with it being the upcoming conclusion to Nathan Drake’s story.
Talking about the addition of Mysticals, Cogburn said that they had intended to include these from the very start as homage to the “Uncharted” franchise. The goal for this round was to make sure that the Mysticals can change the game for the multiplayer of “Uncharted 4.”
Naughty Dog had also wanted to use Mysticals as a fan service to players who have been following Drake’s story. Mysticals are a way to bring more to “Uncharted 4” compared to how previous “Uncharted” titles were made.
As the final installment in the franchise, “Uncharted 4” also serves as the studio’s final means of delivering what they can of Drake’s story. However, even with the release of “Uncharted 4,” Naughty Dog still has something in store for fans.
“We have some really cool plans in the future, outside of some of the obvious things like new Mysticals, new sidekicks, new weapons and whatnot,” Naughty Dog said to GameSpot. “We’re trying to be conscious of feedback throughout the process, and implementing changes based on it.”
