‘Uncharted 4’ dev unveils edition inclusions, missing Donut Drake and ambitions for next game with PS4

For gamers who have yet to order a copy of “Uncharted 4,” Naughty Dog has released two new trailers that showcase the different features in the Collector’s Edition and the Special Edition.

Spotted by Ubergizmo, the trailers not only showcase the edition but also a few gameplay clips from the game, The Libertalia Collector’s Edition include a 12-inch Nathan Drake action figure by Gentle Giant, a collectible steel book with unique art, a 48-page hardcover artbook, a sticker sheet and exclusive multiplayer bonuses.

The second clip is roughly the same as the first one. The only thing missing from the “Uncharted 4” Special Edition is the 12-inch action figure. Both are available for preorder.

Naughty Dog also revealed a new bit of info—one that confirms that the Donut Drake skin will no longer be included in “Uncharted 4.” IGN reported that the previously unlockable skin featuring an overweight Drake has been removed. As per Naughty Dog’s Neil Druckmann, he said that they didn’t want to include something that was going to just laughed at, adding that the game should have been matured beyond this point by now.

Beyond “Uncharted 4,” Naughty Dog is also looking forward to making a game that will push the PS4 even further than what Drake’s last adventure did. Speaking with DualShockers, Naughty Dog Lead Designer Ricky Cambier confirmed that the PS4 hardware can still be pushed even further.

“There are definitely areas that I can see that we will be able to do better things already, after this. You know, we have some really smart programmers at Naughty Dog… no doubt that the next thing we do, we’re gonna get even more out of that PlayStation,” said Cambier to DualShockers.

Cambier has also hinted that the team already has some plans on what it can do for its future games. It should be noted that Naughty Dog has not yet hinted on the next project that it has up its sleeve, but if the realistic imagery and smoothly transitioning cutscenes-to-gameplay approach for “Uncharted 4” is anything to go by, the next game will definitely have some features to watch out for.

“Uncharted 4” will be released on May 10 for the PS4. It’s considered as the last installment in the “Uncharted” series marking the end of the era for hero Nathan Drake.
