Uncharted: The Lost Legacy will put the spotlight on two previous supporting characters in the Uncharted universe, but don't expect its central protagonist to appear in the upcoming standalone expansion.
Following up about previous statements regarding Nathan Drake's involvement in The Lost Legacy, Game Director Kurt Margenau confirmed to the PlayStation Blog that the star of the Uncharted series won't appear in the standalone DLC "at all."
"We’re not going to touch on Nathan Drake in this, at all," Margenau said.
Margenau followed up statements from writer Josh Scherr, who said the team "entertained a few possible ideas around including Nate as a secondary character ... but everything we did felt superfluous because we tied it all up with Uncharted 4."
(As for what Drake is up to during the game, Scherr jokingly suggested "You can sort of imagine Drake sitting on the couch playing Crash Bandicoot while Chloe and Nadine are off galavanting."
The Lost Legacy team has hinted at Drake's absence before, but did note the DLC would still acknowledge his existence, given that the two stars of The Lost Legacy, Chloe Frazer and Nadine Ross, have different, complicated histories with Drake. Scherr previously suggested that the two might bring Drake up in conversation, as well as that other characters might make cameo appearances.
Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, set six to 12 months after the events of Uncharted 4 and sees Chloe and Nadine on the hunt for the Tusk of Ganesh in India. The team at Naughty Dog has previously said the expansion will include "the single largest level" in any Uncharted game. It will launch as a standalone game later this year or as part of the Uncharted 4 Digital Deluxe Edition. For more on the game, check out the original PSX 2016 reveal demo below:
