Will there be an Uncharted 5? Latest news on game series future
Is there more to come from Nathan Drake?
www.radiotimes.comHere’s the latest on Uncharted 5 based on recent reporting and trends:
-
Status of development: Multiple outlets and industry chatter over the past couple of years suggest Naughty Dog has been exploring a new Uncharted project alongside other initiatives, with official confirmation often framed as “open to future entries” rather than a concrete, ready-to-release title. This aligns with the studio’s pattern of revisiting the franchise after Lost Legacy, though no official release date or concrete details have been announced as of now.[2][4]
-
Publication dates and trailers: There have been numerous fan-made trailers and speculative videos claiming official reveals or trailers, but none have been confirmed by Sony or Naughty Dog as legitimate, official content. Expecters in late 2025–2026 have circulated rumors about a reveal window, but these remain unverified.[7][8][9]
-
Key characters and direction: Rumors have periodically mentioned Cassie Drake and Sam Drake as potential focal characters, or a new protagonist, but again these are unconfirmed rumors and speculative in nature. The most reliable stance from the era is that Naughty Dog has not officially announced the cast, plot, or scope of a fifth mainline entry.[4][5]
-
What to watch for next: Official statements from Naughty Dog or Sony PlayStation, or major industry events (State of Play, PlayStation Showcase) where a formal reveal could occur. Until then, coverage will largely consist of rumor aggregation and fan speculation rather than confirmed details.[2][7]
Illustration: If you’d like, I can summarize the key rumor themes (Cassie/Sam Drake focus, return of Nathan Drake vs. new cast, and potential timelines) in a concise table, or track any official statements as they’re released.
