#PGW Uncharted 4 multiplayer debuts

During the PlayStation conference at Paris Games Week, Naughty Dog took to the stage to reveal the debut of the Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End multiplayer.  While the footage does seem to be taken from the in-game engine, be aware that it is very cleverly put together with some nifty camera angles.  But none the less, it does give us some representation of what to expect, so please enjoy.

 

Also courtesy of the PlayStation Blog, some new gameplay mechanics were detailed, which will be introduced in the Uncharted 4 multiplayer, in response to feedback from the previous two instalments, as seen below.

• Sidekicks: When you are in a pinch you can call in your friendly Sidekick to help you. These are unique, AI-controlled characters that come equipped with special abilities that can help turn the tide of a battle.
• Mysticals: These are super natural abilities from the Uncharted series that give a player unique powers – see if you can recognise what Mystical abilities we are showing off in the trailer.
• Last, you will be able to leverage the grappling hook in a number of locations in our multiplayer maps – we have also heavily leveraged this exciting mechanic for our melee. Yes, you will be able to land on people and take them out – would you expect less?

Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End will release exclusively for the PlayStation 4 on March 18^th 2016 and for those that picked up the Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection, you will be granted access to the multiplayer beta of Uncharted 4 from December 4^th to the 13^th.
