Gamescom 2019: 10 Announcements That Would BREAK The Internet

9. Sony's New First-Party Studio Game - Uncharted 5?

This has been incredibly easy to miss, but Sony have been putting together a super-team of developers in San Diego for quite some time, comprised of ex-Rockstar and Naughty Dog staffers, alongside veterans of their own first-party teams.

The new development team doesn't have a name, but we know they're hard at work on... something.

A major possibility is actually Uncharted 5, either focused on brother Sam's adventures after Nate retires at the close of Uncharted 4, or better yet, a game following Cassie Drake, with Nate on comms helping her out.

After all, Naughty Dog tend to work through one franchise and then hand it off to other developers. It happened with Crash, then Jak & Daxter, so why would Uncharted be any different?

As the main ND team have moved onto The Last of Us 2 (and possibly 3), Uncharted makes too much money to not continue in some form.
