'Nathan Drake' Drops Hints Of New Uncharted Adventure
Polar ice caps? Norway? A disappearance!? Sounds like a job for...
Could Naughty Dog be working on some additional content (or dare we say it, a sequel) to 2009's epic Uncharted 2: Among Thieves? Updates to a 'Nathan Drake' profile on German social networking site meinVZ have suggested that the treasure hunter could be heading to the North and South Pole next.
Status updates on the Drake account, which is purportedly official, have been thin on the ground until most recently, when a notice was published saying "Wahrscheinlich ist es Wahnsinn, aber ich will der Sache nachgehen. Werde nach Fredrikstad fliegen, Amundsen Heimatort. Muss es wissen!"
Now, our German isn't great, so according to Kotaku a brief translation goes something like; "This is probably crazy, but I’m looking into it. Flying to Fredrikstad, Amundsen’s home town. I must know!" Fredrikstad happens to be a town in Norway, home to explorer Roald Amundsen, the first ever to reach both the North and South Pole. He disappeared in 1928.
Which leaves 'Drake' to pick up the pieces, with a theory that the polar adventurer discovered an ancient city buried underneath the ice. Nice setup for another Uncharted adventure, but could it be DLC, a new game or just a load of hot (cold?) air? And, you know, do you trust profiles of fictional characters on German Facebook clones? E3's just round the corner, folks.
