sports_esports Gameplay & Mechanics
Companions/Followers
  • Samuel 'Sam' Drake (AI): Nate's older brother. Accompanies Nate for the majority of the game. Sam is a capable AI companion in combat, engaging enemies with firearms and melee. He also assists in traversal (e.g., boosting Nate up ledges, cooperative environmental interactions) and participates in puzzle-solving and dialogue.
    Human
  • Victor 'Sully' Sullivan (AI): Joins Nate and Sam for significant portions of the adventure. Provides combat support, often with heavier weapons or from a strategic position (like piloting a vehicle). Offers guidance and witty banter. Assists in traversal and puzzle elements.
    Human
  • Elena Fisher (AI - Temporary): Accompanies Nate during certain later chapters of the game. She is resourceful and capable in combat, using firearms and assisting Nate. Her presence is crucial for narrative and emotional development during these segments.
    Human
  • Online Multiplayer Teammates (Original PS4 Version): In the original PS4 multiplayer modes, players would team up with other human-controlled characters, utilizing various weapons, Mysticals (supernatural power-ups), and Sidekicks (AI support characters like Snipers or Brutes that could be summoned).
    Human (Player Characters)
  • Hurk Drubman Jr. (Co-op Player): In two-player online co-op, the second player controls Hurk. Hurk has access to the same weapons and abilities as Ajay (based on the co-op player's own progression in their game if they are hosting, or a preset if joining). Co-op allows for tactical teamwork, reviving each other, and combined firepower against enemies.
    Human
  • Temporary AI Allies (Mission Specific): During certain missions, outpost attacks, or Karma events, Golden Path rebels will fight alongside Ajay. Their effectiveness varies, but they can provide covering fire and distract enemies. They are not persistent, controllable companions like in later Far Cry titles.
    Human (Golden Path Rebels)
  • Rideable Elephants: While not a 'companion' in the traditional sense, Ajay can ride elephants. Elephants can charge through barricades, trample enemies, and swing their trunks to attack. They are powerful, albeit temporary, allies in combat situations.
    Asian Elephant
  • Shangri-La Tiger: During the Shangri-La missions, Ajay (as Kalinag) is accompanied by a mystical white tiger. The player can direct the tiger to attack specific enemies. The tiger is essential for combat and puzzle-solving within these sequences.
    Mystical Tiger
Key Collectibles
  • Treasures: 109 small, often shiny, collectible artifacts hidden throughout the game's chapters. These range from ancient coins and pirate trinkets to jeweled objects. Finding them often requires careful exploration of environments, sometimes in out-of-the-way spots.
  • Journal Entries: Contextual items or landmarks that Nathan Drake can interact with, causing him to sketch or write about them in his journal. These entries provide additional lore, character thoughts, or clues for puzzles. There are 25 specific Journal Entry collectibles.
  • Journal Notes: Loose notes, letters, or documents found in the environment that Nathan can pick up and read. These often provide backstory about historical figures like Captain Avery, the founding of Libertalia, or the lives of its inhabitants. There are 23 specific Journal Note collectibles.
  • Optional Conversations: Specific moments where a speech bubble icon appears above an NPC's head (usually Sam, Sully, or Elena). Interacting triggers unique, optional dialogue exchanges that flesh out character relationships and provide additional story context. There are 36 of these.
  • Rock Cairns: Piles of stacked rocks found in some of the larger, more open environments. Nate can knock them over. While not a traditional collectible with a counter, interacting with them is a minor activity. (More prominent as a collectible in The Lost Legacy).
  • Mani Wheels: Found at religious sites, shrines, and scenic points throughout Kyrat. Spinning them grants Karma and XP. Finding and spinning all of them unlocks a specific perk and contributes to 100% completion.
  • Lost Letters: Hidden notes scattered across Kyrat, written by a British Army officer stationed there in the 19th century. They tell a personal story of his experiences, love, and the impact of colonialism, providing historical lore.
  • Mohan Ghale's Journals: Pages from Ajay's father's journal, hidden in various locations. Collecting these reveals Mohan Ghale's backstory, his motivations for starting the Golden Path, his relationship with Ishwari and Pagan Min, and his internal conflicts.
  • Propaganda Posters: Pagan Min's propaganda posters are plastered throughout Kyrat. Tearing them down or defacing them grants XP and contributes to regional liberation and 100% completion.
  • Masks of Yalung: Terrifying masks associated with a demonic cult, hidden in dark caves and remote locations. Collecting them for a side character (related to Shangri-La lore) reveals a disturbing side story and grants rewards.
  • Kyrat Fashion Week Quest Items (Rare Skins): Specific rare animals need to be hunted with particular weapons for Mr. Chiffon's 'Kyrat Fashion Week' quests to craft unique gear upgrades.

  • Explosives (Grenades, Dynamite, Propane Tanks): Throwable / Environmental
    Standard grenades and dynamite can be thrown. Red propane tanks or barrels in the environment can be shot to cause large explosions.
  • Standard Firearms: Various (Pistols, SMGs, Assault Rifles, Shotguns, Sniper Rifles, LMGs)
    A wide array of conventional firearms. Can be customized with attachments like scopes (various types), suppressors, extended magazines, and paint jobs. Weapon progression involves unlocking them via purchase or completing missions.

  • Throwables & Explosives: Tactical/Area Denial
    Grenades, Molotov Cocktails, C4, Mines (Proximity & Remote), Bait (to attract predators towards enemies).
Armor / Gear Sets
  • No Equipable Armor System: Nathan Drake does not have an equipable armor system where players can find or upgrade different pieces of armor for stat boosts. His survivability is based on his health (which regenerates when out of combat) and player skill in using cover, dodging, and defeating enemies efficiently. There are no armor items to collect or equip.
  • Cosmetic Outfits (Multiplayer & Bonus Content): In the original PS4 multiplayer mode, and as unlockable bonus content for the single-player campaign (often after first completion or via special editions), various cosmetic outfits for Nathan Drake and other characters were available. These were purely visual and did not offer gameplay advantages.
  • Crafted Gear Upgrades (Capacity): While Ajay doesn't equip traditional 'armor' pieces for direct damage reduction that are visually represented, he crafts upgrades to his gear using animal skins. This includes: Weapon Holsters (carry more weapons), Ammo Pouches (carry more ammo for specific weapon types), Quivers (carry more arrows/bolts), Syringe Kits (carry more syringes), Bait Bags, Throwables Bags, Loot Bags, and Heavy Ammo Bags. These are essential for increasing survivability and combat effectiveness by allowing more resources to be carried.
  • Body Armor (Consumable): Players can purchase or find Body Armor which provides an additional, non-regenerating health bar segment. This is consumed when damaged and needs to be replenished. It's a temporary defensive boost.
  • Cosmetic Outfits (Limited): The game features some unlockable cosmetic outfits (e.g., via Uplay rewards or special editions), but these are purely visual and do not offer stat bonuses. Ajay's default appearance changes slightly based on story progression or choices in a minor way.
Outfits/Customization
  • Nathan Drake's Outfits: Throughout the story, Nathan Drake wears several distinct outfits appropriate to the location and situation (e.g., casual wear at home, rugged adventure gear in Madagascar, diving suit, formal attire for an auction). These are generally fixed for specific chapters. Unlockable cosmetic outfits are available after completing the game or through special editions/Legacy of Thieves Collection, allowing players to replay chapters with different looks (e.g., classic Drake outfits, wetsuits).
  • Multiplayer Character Customization (Original PS4): The original PS4 multiplayer mode allowed extensive customization of playable characters (heroes and villains from the Uncharted series) with hundreds of unlockable clothing items (hats, shirts, pants, accessories) and taunts.
  • Default Outfits: Ajay Ghale's primary outfit is fairly standard throughout the game, consisting of practical clothing suitable for the mountainous environment. There are very limited changes to his base appearance.
  • Unlockable Cosmetic Outfits: A few cosmetic outfits could be unlocked via Ubisoft Club (formerly Uplay) rewards or were included in special editions (e.g., Hurk's outfit for the co-op player). These are purely visual and do not affect gameplay stats. Unlike later Far Cry games, extensive character customization through clothing is not a feature.
trending_up Progression & Upgrades
Skills & Progression

Uncharted 4 does not feature a traditional RPG skill tree or extensive character stat upgrades for Nathan Drake. Progression is primarily through acquiring new weapons and gear found in levels or dropped by enemies. There are no craftable upgrades for Nate's personal abilities. Gameplay mastery comes from improving player skill in combat, stealth, platforming, and puzzle-solving. Some weapon 'upgrades' are simply finding more powerful versions or attachments. The grappling hook is a key new tool that enhances traversal and combat options.

Ajay Ghale's abilities are upgraded through two skill trees: 'The Tiger' (offensive skills, focusing on assault tactics, weapon handling, and takedowns) and 'The Elephant' (defensive/utility skills, focusing on health, crafting syringes, survival, and stealth). Skill points are earned by gaining XP from completing missions, liberating outposts, hunting, and other activities. Crafting is essential for upgrading gear capacity (weapon holsters, ammo pouches, loot bags, syringe kits, etc.) using animal skins hunted from Kyrat's diverse wildlife. A Karma system rewards or punishes Ajay for his actions towards Golden Path members and civilians, unlocking perks and affecting interactions.

public World & Exploration
World & Level Design

Example Missions
  • Story Chapters (Prologue - Epilogue)
    A series of linear, narratively-driven chapters that progress the main story of Nathan and Sam Drake's hunt for Captain Avery's treasure. Each chapter is set in a distinct location and features a mix of exploration, platforming, puzzle-solving, stealth, and intense combat encounters, punctuated by cinematic cutscenes.
  • Puzzle Solving Sequences
    Integrated into main story progression, these involve deciphering clues from Nate's journal, manipulating environmental objects, aligning symbols, or using light and shadow to uncover hidden paths or mechanisms related to Avery's trials and Libertalia's secrets.
  • Major Set-Piece Encounters
    Spectacular, highly scripted action sequences that serve as climactic moments within chapters. Examples include the Madagascar jeep chase, collapsing clock tower escape, ballroom brawl, ship graveyard battle, and encounters with armored vehicles or heavily armed enemy groups.
  • Stealth Sections
    Numerous areas allow or encourage a stealthy approach. Nate can use tall grass, cover, takedowns from ledges or above, and silenced weapons (if found) to eliminate enemies or bypass encounters without raising an alarm.
  • Vehicle Traversal & Combat Sections
    Specific chapters feature drivable vehicles like a jeep (in Madagascar) or a boat (around island chains). These sections involve navigating large environments, sometimes engaging in vehicular combat, or using the vehicle's winch for environmental puzzles.
  • Flashback Sequences
    Several chapters are flashbacks depicting earlier events in Nate and Sam's lives, such as their time in a Panamanian prison or their childhood in an orphanage. These provide crucial backstory and character development.
  • Main Story Campaign (The Golden Path)
    A series of narrative-driven missions where Ajay Ghale gets involved with the Golden Path's rebellion against Pagan Min. Key objectives include disrupting Pagan Min's operations, rescuing important figures, making critical choices between Amita and Sabal's conflicting strategies, and ultimately confronting Pagan Min. This also involves uncovering the truth about Ajay's parents and their connection to Kyrat.
  • Outpost Liberation
    Capture enemy-controlled outposts scattered throughout Kyrat. This involves eliminating all Royal Army soldiers within the outpost, either stealthily (for bonus XP) or through open combat. Liberating outposts turns them into Golden Path strongholds, unlocking fast travel points, safe houses, side missions, and reducing enemy presence in the region.
  • Fortress Assaults
    Capture heavily fortified strongholds belonging to Pagan Min's lieutenants (De Pleur, Noore, Yuma). These are significantly larger and more challenging than regular outposts, often requiring more strategic planning and heavier firepower. Liberating fortresses further destabilizes Pagan Min's regime.
  • Shangri-La Missions (The Legend of Kalinag)
    Find hidden thangkas (sacred paintings) that transport Ajay into visions of the mythical paradise of Shangri-La. In these surreal sequences, Ajay embodies the ancient Kyrati warrior Kalinag, fighting demonic Rakshasa alongside a mystical tiger companion, seeking to free Shangri-La from corruption. Each mission involves combat, light puzzle-solving, and unique visual storytelling.
  • Side Missions (Weapon Convoys, Hostage Rescue, Assassination, Eye for an Eye, etc.)
    Various optional missions offered by Golden Path members and other NPCs. These include ambushing Royal Army weapon convoys, rescuing hostages, assassinating high-value targets, avenging fallen Golden Path members ('Eye for an Eye'), hunting specific animals for Kyrat Fashion Week, or delivering packages.
  • Karma Events
    Dynamic, randomly occurring events in the open world where Ajay can choose to help Golden Path rebels under attack, defend civilians, or stop Royal Army patrols. Completing these positively impacts Ajay's Karma level, which unlocks perks and discounts.
  • Campaign Story Choices (Amita vs. Sabal Missions)
    At several key points in the story, Ajay must choose to follow either Amita's plan or Sabal's plan for a particular mission. These choices have immediate consequences for the mission's objectives and dialogue, and cumulatively affect the Golden Path's leadership and the game's ending.
  • DLC Missions (Valley of the Yetis, Escape from Durgesh Prison, Hurk Deluxe Pack)
    Separate mission sets included in DLC. 'Valley of the Yetis' is a new campaign where Ajay defends a relay station against cultists and Yetis. 'Escape from Durgesh Prison' is a permadeath challenge to escape and reach an extraction point. 'Hurk Deluxe Pack' adds missions starring Hurk.

help_outline FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
  • Q: Is Uncharted 4: A Thief's End the last Uncharted game with Nathan Drake?
    A: Yes, Naughty Dog has stated that Uncharted 4: A Thief's End is the conclusion to Nathan Drake's story arc. While the Uncharted universe continued with 'The Lost Legacy' (starring Chloe Frazer), Drake's journey as the protagonist effectively ends here.
  • Q: Do I need to play the previous Uncharted games to understand Uncharted 4?
    A: While Uncharted 4 has a self-contained main plot, playing the previous three games (Drake's Fortune, Among Thieves, Drake's Deception) is highly recommended. It significantly enhances the emotional weight of the story, the understanding of character relationships (especially with Elena and Sully), and the impact of Nathan Drake's final adventure.
  • Q: What is new in terms of gameplay in Uncharted 4 compared to previous titles?
    A: Uncharted 4 introduced several new gameplay mechanics, including a grappling hook for enhanced traversal and combat, more open 'wide-linear' level designs with drivable vehicles (jeep, boat), improved stealth mechanics with tall grass and enemy tagging, and more dynamic melee combat with environmental interactions.
  • Q: Does the 'Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection' include multiplayer?
    A: No, the 'Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection' for PS5 and PC includes the single-player campaigns of Uncharted 4: A Thief's End and Uncharted: The Lost Legacy only. The multiplayer modes from the original PS4 releases are not included in this collection.
  • Q: How long is Uncharted 4: A Thief's End?
    A: The main story campaign of Uncharted 4 typically takes around 15-20 hours to complete. Finding all collectibles and exploring thoroughly can extend this to 25-30+ hours.
  • Q: Is Far Cry 4 a direct sequel to Far Cry 3?
    A: No, Far Cry 4 features a new story, setting, and protagonist (Ajay Ghale). While it shares thematic elements and gameplay mechanics with Far Cry 3, and Hurk Drubman Jr. returns, their narratives are not directly connected.
  • Q: Can I play the entire Far Cry 4 campaign in co-op?
    A: Most of the open-world content, including liberating outposts, fortresses, and exploring Kyrat, can be played in two-player online co-op (with the second player as Hurk). However, main story missions are generally designed for solo play by the host, though the co-op partner can often assist in the combat surrounding these missions in the open world.
  • Q: What are the 'Battles of Kyrat' multiplayer modes?
    A: Battles of Kyrat is Far Cry 4's competitive PvP multiplayer. It's an asymmetrical mode where one team plays as the Rakshasa (Golden Path warriors using bows, stealth, and animal summoning) and the other as Pagan Min's Elite Guard (using conventional firearms and vehicles). Game modes include capturing outposts, collecting propaganda, and securing demon masks.
  • Q: What is Shangri-La?
    A: Shangri-La is a mythical, heavenly realm in Kyrati folklore. In Far Cry 4, Ajay can find thangkas (religious paintings) that transport him into hallucinatory visions of Shangri-La, where he plays as the ancient Kyrati warrior Kalinag, fighting demonic forces alongside a mystical tiger companion. These sequences offer a unique visual style and gameplay experience.
  • Q: Do my choices between Amita and Sabal really matter?
    A: Yes, your choices to support either Amita or Sabal in their leadership struggle for the Golden Path have significant consequences. They affect the types of missions you undertake, the dialogue from characters, the state of certain locations in Kyrat, and ultimately contribute to different variations of the game's ending and the future of Kyrat.
  • Q: Can you ride elephants in Far Cry 4?
    A: Yes, riding elephants is a prominent feature. Ajay can mount wild elephants or find them at specific locations and use them as powerful, destructive mounts in combat, capable of trampling enemies and smashing through obstacles.
build Technical Details
Graphics & Visual Fidelity

Powered by Naughty Dog's proprietary engine, Uncharted 4 is renowned for its groundbreaking visuals, especially at the time of its PS4 release. It features incredibly detailed character models with realistic animations and facial expressions, breathtaking and diverse environments, advanced lighting and shadow effects, and spectacular cinematic set pieces. The level of environmental detail, from foliage and water effects to material textures, is exceptional. The PS5 and PC versions in the 'Legacy of Thieves Collection' offer enhanced resolutions, frame rates, and graphical settings.

Powered by the Dunia Engine 2, Far Cry 4 delivers stunning visuals of the Himalayan landscapes, ranging from lush, dense forests and vibrant valleys to snow-covered peaks and ancient, detailed temples. The game features advanced lighting, realistic weather effects, and highly detailed character and animal models. NVIDIA Gameworks technologies like HBAO+, PCSS, TXAA, and enhanced God Rays were available on PC for improved visual fidelity.

Audio & Soundtrack

Original score composed by Henry Jackman, featuring sweeping orchestral themes, adventurous melodies, and emotionally resonant pieces that underscore the narrative's highs and lows. The music dynamically adapts to gameplay, building tension during combat and enhancing the sense of wonder during exploration. Sound design is top-notch, with impactful weapon sounds, detailed environmental ambiances, and stellar voice acting.

The original score was composed by Cliff Martinez, blending orchestral elements with traditional South Asian instrumentation to reflect Kyrat's atmosphere. The game features in-world radio stations, most notably Radio Free Kyrat hosted by the charismatic and often hilarious Rabi Ray Rana, who provides commentary on Ajay's actions and the ongoing civil war. Sound design effectively captures the diverse wildlife, distinct weapon sounds, and environmental ambiance of the Himalayas.

User Interface (UI/UX)

Features a minimalistic and cinematic HUD, displaying ammo count, equipped weapon, and contextual prompts for interactions, stealth, and combat. A simple objective marker guides players. No traditional mini-map during gameplay to enhance immersion; players rely on environmental cues and Nate's journal. The journal contains sketches, notes, and puzzle solutions.

Features a standard first-person HUD with a mini-map, health bar (regenerating), ammo count, and objective markers. A radial menu is used for weapon selection, syringe crafting/use, and throwing items. The world map is detailed, allowing for custom waypoints and tracking collectibles. Interaction prompts are clear and contextual.

Accessibility Options

Naughty Dog has been a leader in accessibility. Uncharted 4 (especially in the Legacy of Thieves Collection) offers a wide array of options: extensive control remapping, subtitle and caption customization (size, color, background, speaker names), options for motion blur/camera shake, aim assist lock-on, options for QTEs (hold vs. tap), high contrast modes, audio cues for collectibles and combat, navigation assistance, and more.

Includes options for subtitle display (size, background), customizable controls (key remapping, sensitivity), aim assist, and adjustable difficulty levels. Game-specific features like tagging enemies and highlighting interactive objects aid gameplay visibility.
