Set three years after the events on Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception, our main character, Nathan Drake, a retired fortune hunter is now living a normal life along with his wife, Elena Fisher. The story starts with his world being turned upside-down when his believed to be dead older brother, Sam, shows up, asking for his help.
The two set out on an amazing journey, filled with what every gamer wants to see: Conspiracies, Pirates and Treasure!
Naughty Dog have a few words to say about the game's plot as well, "his greatest adventure yet and will test his physical limits, his resolve, and his relationships"
Sony's 2015 E3 conference is where fans got to see a fresh glimpse of the game they were so eagerly awaiting. Sony was kind enough as to reveal a game demo that features Nathan and Sully in a marketplace shortly before being ambushed by soldiers. The giant Pirate statue guarding the entrance to the marketplace is as eerie as it is awe-inducing, the inscription underneath it stating "I am a man of fortune and must seek my fortune". If this trailer is anything to go by, then we will surely have an amazing game to play, discover, and talk about.
