If you’re a fan of jaw-dropping visuals married with that all-important element of story-telling - I mean, who isn’t? - then this little gem of news could be music to your ears. With masterpieces that includeThe Last of Us,Uncharted,God of War,andSpider-Manit looks like we are in for some more of the same according to their latest job opening with people believing it might be the next segment in theUnchartedfranchise.
A brand new dev squad has been lined up by Sony and they’re seeking out some talented folk for numerous positions, one including aLead Character Artistto work on a currently unannounced high profile third-person adventure that is being described as “the next chapter of cinematic storytelling.”

Personally speaking, I would love to see more Chloe and Nadine for more ofUncharted: Lost Legacy, what a pair of gals they are and it showed us that we didn’t need Drake to makeUnchartedgood. Maybe we will be looking at a spin-off? Whatever they are planning the next chapter off, you can be sure it will be amazing and something well worth waiting for, but I wouldn’t hold my breath for any further news on this project soon as this next phase could very well be a PS5 launch. Let’s wait and see!
