Naughty Dog Chose The Last of Us Remake Over Uncharted Remake, It’s Claimed

A data miner has identified prototype files for a remake of Uncharted: Drake's Fortune within the internal assets of The Last of Us Part 2. These findings suggest the project was active during the development period of the latter title.

Coverage from outlets including Insider Gaming, GameGPU, and TwistedVoxel indicates that Naughty Dog ultimately opted to focus resources on remaking The Last of Us instead of continuing the Uncharted project. The discovery has prompted significant discussion among players regarding the potential return of the Nathan Drake series.

Future developments will clarify whether the studio maintains any remaining assets from the shelved project. There is currently no confirmation from official channels regarding whether the Uncharted remake will be revisited or if these prototype files represent a permanently canceled initiative.
