Old is the New… New: Sony Leading the Way in Gaming Industry Remakes
In the ever-evolving landscape of the gaming industry, a trend has emerged where older classics are being revitalized, and Sony stands at the forefront of this movement. It’s not just about revisiting aged titles like Silent Hill 2; even iconic games such as Metal Gear Solid 3, the God of War trilogy, and Horizon: Zero Dawn are reportedly in the pipeline for a fresh makeover and re-release. The latest buzz suggests that the next title to join the remake bandwagon could be the very first installment of the Uncharted series.
In the recent episode of XboxEra (down below), podcast personalities Nick Baker and Jon Clarke shared intriguing insights. They claim to have individually encountered “evidence” indicating that a remake of the 17-year-old PS3 game, Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, is likely in development. However, both remain tight-lipped about the specifics of their sources and potential proof.
While Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, along with its two sequels, has already been remastered once for the PS4 with the Nathan Drake Collection in 2015, there are whispers that it might soon be time to rediscover Nathan Drake, Sully, and Chloe in a full-fledged remake. The anticipation builds as gamers wonder whether they will get to experience the beloved characters in a new and improved light.
