A new ad for the PlayStation 5 was uploaded to the official PlayStation YouTube channel that could possibly be hinting at a new Uncharted adventure. One where the protagonist is a younger, updated version of Drake.
The ad in question is titled “Live From PS5” and shows live-action versions of multiple games in the PS5 library in the format of local news. Glimpses of Spider-Man, Kratos and Atreus from God of War, Aloy from Horizon, and many more can be seen during the video. However, within these quick succession of images is a young girl holding a torch in a dark cave–with a shiny object placed on a pedestal in front of her towards the end.
Keen Twitter users immediately spotted the scenes, leading to speculation that a new Uncharted title starring Nathan Drake’s daughter, Cassie, is in development. Sony has not commented on the rumors.
If this sequel does exist, it will likely be developed by Naughty Dog, as studio head Neil Druckmann has said before the team was “done” with the franchise. Druckmann did say, however, that he would be open to another studio taking over, as long as they “get the essence of it right.”
