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)
  • Guns for Hire (Humans): Each human companion has two unique, unlockable abilities that enhance their combat effectiveness. Examples: Carmina Rye can throw multiple sticks of dynamite; The Judge shoots 3 arrows at once and his arrows track moving targets; Nana can see through smoke and shoot through cover; Pastor Jerome uses incendiary shotgun shells and blesses the player with reduced damage; Gina Guerra uses explosive rounds and never runs out of ammo for her LMG; Hurk Drubman Jr.'s rockets track vehicles more effectively and he reloads faster.
    Human
  • Fangs for Hire (Animals): Timber (dog) automatically tags enemies and nearby crafting materials, can dig for resources, fetch weapons from downed enemies, and scare off some hostile wildlife. Horatio (boar) is a powerful tank who charges enemies, shatters shields, draws enemy fire, and can self-revive once from being downed in combat, making him exceptionally resilient.

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).
  • MP3 Players: Found in various locations throughout Hope County and on Expedition maps. Each one found unlocks a new music track that can be listened to via the in-game music player, adding to the player's auditory experience and world immersion.
  • Dear Photograph Locations: Specific viewpoints in Hope County. Interacting with them shows the player a pre-Collapse photograph of that exact location, highlighting the drastic changes over 17 years and providing a poignant narrative touch about what was lost.
  • Treasure Hunts: Marked locations on the map that involve solving environmental puzzles, navigating obstacles, or finding keys to access a hidden stash. Rewards typically include Perk Points, crafting materials (often rare), and sometimes unique weapon skins or Far Cry Credits.

colorize Combat & Gear
Weapons Overview
  • Pistols (e.g., Para .45, Aegis 9mm, Raffica, Fossa R-81): Sidearm (Semi-Auto, Burst, Automatic)
    Reliable sidearms for various situations. Can be used while hanging, swimming, or for quick shots. Some are fully automatic.
  • Revolvers (e.g., Barok .44): Sidearm (High Damage)
    Powerful handguns dealing significant damage per shot, but with slower fire rates and smaller capacities.
  • Long Guns (Assault Rifles, e.g., AK-47, FAL, Mettler M-30, HS39): Primary Firearm (Automatic/Burst)
    Versatile automatic or burst-fire rifles suitable for most combat encounters at medium range. Common enemy drops.
  • Shotguns (e.g., Spezzotti 12 Gauge, Condor, Flanker): Primary Firearm (Close Quarters)
    Devastating at close range. Includes pump-action, double-barreled, and semi-automatic variants.
  • Sniper Rifles (e.g., M14 Custom, Nagant Mosin, Mazur LDR): Primary Firearm (Long Range, Precision)
    Used for taking out enemies from a distance with high precision. Some are bolt-action, others semi-automatic.
  • Heavy Weapons (e.g., RPG-7, China Lake GL, DShK): Primary Firearm (Explosive/High Power)
    Powerful weapons like rocket launchers, grenade launchers, and mounted machine guns encountered in specific sections or dropped by heavy enemies.
  • Melee (Fists, Environmental Objects, Grappling Hook Takedowns): Close Quarters Combat
    Nate can engage in hand-to-hand combat with punches, grapples, and environmental takedowns. The grappling hook can also be used for aerial melee attacks.
  • 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.
  • Makeshift Firearms: Various (Pistols, Rifles, SMGs, Shotguns, Sniper Rifles, LMGs, Bows)
    A wide array of firearms with a distinct scavenged, jury-rigged aesthetic. Weapons are tiered from Rank I (grey), Rank II (blue), Rank III (purple), to Elite Rank (gold). Higher tiers feature significantly better damage, more mod slots, and often unique visual elements like colorful paint or added scrap metal. Ammo types are generally standard, with bows offering special arrows (piercing, explosive).
  • Saw Launchers: Special/Heavy
    Signature weapons of New Dawn. They fire sawblades that can ricochet off surfaces. Multiple variants exist, including ones that fire multiple blades or have enhanced damage, becoming increasingly devastating at higher ranks.
  • Melee Weapons: Melee (Blunt, Edged, Improvised)
    Crafted melee weapons like spiked baseball bats, reinforced pipes, makeshift spears, and sharpened blades. Also tiered, with higher ranks offering more damage and durability. Some can be thrown.
  • Explosives & Throwables: Gadget/Consumable
    Craftable grenades, dynamite, Molotov cocktails, C4, and proximity mines. Their appearance reflects the makeshift nature of the post-apocalypse. Upgrading the Explosives Lab in Prosperity unlocks more powerful versions.
  • Energy Weapons: Special (Elite Rank)
    Late-game weapons like the Blaster Rifle, which fire energy projectiles and are particularly effective against high-rank, armored Highwaymen.
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.
  • Gear Sets & Pieces: Players craft and equip individual gear pieces for Head, Torso, Legs, Hands, and Feet. Each piece provides specific perks (e.g., reduced damage from melee, faster movement while crouched, increased ammo capacity for a weapon type). Gear is tiered (Rank I to Elite). Equipping multiple pieces from the same 'Set' (e.g., Highwaymen Set, Scout Set, Heavy Set) grants additional powerful set bonuses, encouraging players to tailor their gear to their preferred playstyle (stealth, run-and-gun, tank).
  • Cosmetic Outfits: Purely cosmetic full-body outfits that change the player character's appearance. These do not provide any stat bonuses or perks and are separate from the functional gear system. Many are unlocked through gameplay, challenges, or were part of special editions/packs.
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.
  • Makeshift Gear Pieces: Players equip individual pieces of gear for head, torso, legs, hands, and feet. These items have a distinct post-apocalyptic, scavenged aesthetic, often incorporating scrap metal, leather, and repurposed materials. The visual design of gear often reflects its set type (e.g., Highwaymen gear looks aggressive and cobbled together, Scout gear looks lighter and more agile).
  • Cosmetic Outfits & Weapon Skins: A variety of full-body cosmetic outfits (e.g., 'Space Force' outfit, 'Retro Sci-Fi' outfit) and weapon skins allow players to change their visual appearance and weapon aesthetics without affecting gameplay stats. Many are unlocked through in-game progression, completing challenges, finding them in the world, or via special editions and microtransactions.
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.

Progression is heavily tied to upgrading the Prosperity home base. Facilities like the Weapons Workbench, Garage, Training Camp, Infirmary, Explosives Lab, Healing Garden, and Cartography office can be upgraded using Ethanol, unlocking higher-tier weapon/vehicle crafting, increased health, stronger companions, faster fast travel, and revealed map locations. Players earn Perk Points from challenges, Treasure Hunts, and leveling up to unlock abilities in categories like Brawler, Covert, Survivor, and specific companion-enhancing perks. Crafting materials are diverse (Components, Duct Tape, Gears, Springs, Titanium, Carbon Fiber, Circuit Boards) and tiered, corresponding to weapon/vehicle ranks.

public World & Exploration
World & Level Design
N/A

Hope County's map is a condensed and significantly altered version of Far Cry 5's, reflecting 17 years of post-nuclear transformation. Familiar landmarks are often overgrown or repurposed. Key areas include Prosperity (home base), Highwaymen outposts, and New Eden's territory. A major addition is 'Expeditions,' which take players to self-contained, off-map locations across the USA, such as a crashed I.S.S. space station in Louisiana, Alcatraz Island, a Navajo Bridge in Arizona, a Florida amusement park, and a government plane wreck. These offer unique environments and high-value resources.

Playable Vehicles
  • Jeep (4x4): Land Vehicle (Off-Road)
    A rugged jeep used by Nate, Sam, and Sully for traversing the expansive plains and muddy tracks of Madagascar. Features a winch that can be used to pull down structures, create paths, or pull the jeep up steep inclines.

  • Grappling Hook (Traversal Tool, not a vehicle): Personal Traversal Gear
    While not a vehicle, the grappling hook is a key traversal tool that allows Nate to swing across large gaps, rappel up and down cliffs, and perform dynamic maneuvers, significantly expanding his movement capabilities.
  • Makeshift Cars, Trucks, ATVs, Motorcycles: Land Vehicle
    A wide variety of ground vehicles, all sporting a distinct post-apocalyptic, scavenged, and often armored or weaponized appearance. Vehicles are tiered (Rank I to Elite) and can be crafted at the Garage in Prosperity. Higher-tier vehicles offer better durability, speed, and mounted weaponry (e.g., machine guns, saw launchers). Examples include rusty sedans with plows, dune buggies with mounted MGs, and armored trikes.
  • Boats: Water Vehicle
    Basic watercraft like fan boats and small patrol boats, reflecting the makeshift theme. Useful for traversing Hope County's extensive river network. Some may have light mounted weapons at higher craftable tiers.
  • Helicopters: Air Vehicle
    Craftable and upgradable helicopters, crucial for rapid traversal of the map and providing air support. They also feature a scavenged look and can be equipped with weapons like machine guns or rockets at higher tiers. Essential for quickly reaching Expedition start points or out-of-the-way locations.
  • Unique & Special Vehicles: Land/Air Vehicle
    Includes special pre-order or Deluxe Edition vehicles (like the Unicorn Trike), and potentially some unique vehicles found or awarded through specific missions or Treasure Hunts. These often have distinct visual flair or slightly enhanced stats.

  • Standard Wildlife: Deer, Skunk, Rabbit, Fish, Birds etc.
    Neutral Wildlife. Can be hunted for basic crafting materials (skins, meat for bait) and to complete hunting challenges. Some, like skunks or eagles, can be minor threats.

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 (Prosperity vs. Highwaymen)
    A series of missions that guide the player through upgrading Prosperity, recruiting key specialists (like a doctor, explosives expert, etc.), weakening the Highwaymen's grip on Hope County, and ultimately confronting their leaders, Mickey and Lou. It also involves interacting with Joseph Seed and the community of New Eden.
  • Outpost Liberation & Scavenging
    Clear out Highwaymen-controlled Outposts to gain Ethanol (the primary resource for upgrading Prosperity facilities) and establish fast travel points. Once liberated, Outposts can be 'scavenged,' which returns them to Highwaymen control at a higher difficulty level (more alarms, tougher enemies) but offers significantly more Ethanol upon re-liberation. This forms a core repeatable gameplay loop for resource gathering.
  • Expeditions (Rank I to III)
    Travel to unique, self-contained maps outside Hope County to retrieve a package containing rare crafting materials (like Carbon Fiber, Titanium, Circuit Boards). Each Expedition has 3 difficulty tiers, with higher tiers offering better rewards but featuring more numerous and tougher enemies, and sometimes modified objectives or extraction points.
  • Specialist Recruitment & Loyalty Missions
    Side missions focused on finding and recruiting key specialists who provide unique upgrades to Prosperity's facilities (e.g., Bean for intel, Selene for healing garden). Some companions also have short loyalty missions that delve into their backstory or upgrade their abilities.
  • Treasure Hunts
    Self-contained environmental puzzles marked on the map. Players must decipher clues, navigate obstacles, or find keys to access hidden stashes. These reward Perk Points, valuable crafting materials, Far Cry Credits, and sometimes unique weapon skins or lore notes.
  • Story of Eden (New Eden Missions)
    A series of missions involving Joseph Seed and his community, New Eden. These often involve more mystical or introspective tasks, exploring Joseph's changed philosophy and the strange powers manifesting in the post-Collapse world.
people Multiplayer
Multiplayer Details
N/A

The primary multiplayer offering is two-player online co-op for the main campaign and Expeditions. Players can tackle missions, explore the world, and fight the Highwaymen together. Co-op enhances tactical options and allows for reviving downed partners. There is no competitive multiplayer mode or a map editor like Far Cry Arcade from Far Cry 5.

extension Editions & DLC
Available Editions

Available in Standard Edition, Special Edition (SteelBook, artbook, Naughty Dog points), Libertalia Collector's Edition (12" Nathan Drake statue, SteelBook, artbook, Naughty Dog points, sticker sheet, multiplayer outfits/weapon skins). Later released as part of the 'Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection' for PS5 and PC, which also includes 'Uncharted: The Lost Legacy' and features enhanced graphics and performance options.

Available in Standard Edition and Deluxe Edition. The Deluxe Edition included the Knight Pack (SVD Claymore variant and sidecar motorcycle skin), the Hurk Legacy Pack (Hurkling outfit, Hurk's Wrath M249 variant, and Hurk Legacy off-road vehicle skin), and the Retro Sci-Fi M133M shotgun skin and RAT4 rocket launcher skin. Pre-order bonuses often included a unique Unicorn Trike skin.

Post-Launch Content / DLC

The primary post-launch content was the standalone story expansion 'Uncharted: The Lost Legacy' (starring Chloe Frazer and Nadine Ross), which was also included in the 'Legacy of Thieves Collection'. The original PS4 version of Uncharted 4 received numerous free updates for its multiplayer mode, including new maps, modes, weapons, and cosmetic items. No single-player story DLC directly for Nathan Drake's Uncharted 4 story was released.

Post-launch support for Far Cry New Dawn was minimal compared to mainline titles. It primarily consisted of cosmetic item packs available for purchase (e.g., weapon skins, outfits) and some free Ubisoft Club rewards. No major narrative DLC expansions were released, as the game itself is a spin-off sequel.

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 New Dawn a full game or DLC for Far Cry 5?
    A: Far Cry New Dawn is a standalone, full-priced game. While it's a direct sequel to Far Cry 5 and reuses a modified version of its map, it does not require Far Cry 5 to play and has its own complete story and progression systems.
  • Q: Do I need to play Far Cry 5 before New Dawn to understand the story?
    A: It is highly recommended. New Dawn's narrative, characters (like Joseph Seed, the Ryes, Pastor Jerome), and the overall state of the world are direct consequences of Far Cry 5's ending. Playing FC5 first provides crucial context and emotional weight to New Dawn's events.
  • Q: Is there multiplayer in Far Cry New Dawn, and what can you do?
    A: Yes, Far Cry New Dawn supports two-player online cooperative multiplayer. Players can tackle the entire main campaign, liberate Outposts, and undertake Expeditions together. This allows for tactical coordination and mutual support.
  • Q: What are Expeditions, and why are they important?
    A: Expeditions are repeatable missions that take players to unique, self-contained locations outside of Hope County (e.g., Alcatraz, a crashed space station). Their primary purpose is to acquire rare, high-tier crafting materials essential for upgrading Elite Rank weapons and vehicles. They offer diverse environments and can be replayed at higher difficulty levels for increased rewards.
  • Q: How does the weapon and enemy tier system (RPG-lite mechanics) work?
    A: Both weapons and enemies are tiered (Rank I, II, III, Elite). Higher-ranked enemies are significantly tougher and deal more damage, often requiring weapons of a similar or higher rank to defeat effectively. This encourages players to constantly scavenge, craft, and upgrade their arsenal and home base (Prosperity) to keep pace with escalating threats.
  • Q: Can you still fish and hunt like in Far Cry 5?
    A: Yes, fishing and hunting are still present, though slightly de-emphasized compared to FC5. Hunting provides skins and bait, with Monstrous Wildlife offering rare pelts for high-end crafting. Fishing spots are available for catching different types of fish, which can be sold or used in trade.
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.

Built on the Dunia Engine, New Dawn showcases a striking 'superbloom' post-apocalyptic aesthetic. Hope County is transformed with vibrant, almost alien-looking flora, vivid colors, and unique atmospheric effects like auroras. This contrasts sharply with Far Cry 5's pre-collapse realism. Environmental storytelling is strong, with remnants of the old world overgrown or repurposed by survivors and the Highwaymen. Character models and weapon designs reflect the scavenged, makeshift theme.

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 by Tyler Bates and John Swihart captures the dual nature of the world – hopeful rebuilding mixed with brutal survival. Licensed tracks, often with a retro or folk vibe, feature on in-game radios. The Highwaymen have their own distinct, aggressive musical themes and radio broadcasts, contributing to their menacing presence. Sound design emphasizes the makeshift nature of weapons (clanky, jury-rigged) and the vibrant but dangerous wildlife.

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.

The UI retains Far Cry's first-person HUD elements (compass, ammo, health) but with a distinct 'DIY' post-apocalyptic aesthetic. Health is represented by segmented bars that regenerate up to the last full segment. Enemy health bars and rank indicators are more prominent due to the RPG-lite tiered system. Crafting and upgrade menus are frequently accessed and crucial for progression.

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.

Far Cry New Dawn inherits many accessibility features from Far Cry 5, including customizable controls (key remapping, sensitivity), aim assist options, adjustable difficulty levels (Easy, Normal, Hard), and extensive subtitle customization (size, background opacity, speaker names). Colorblind modes are also available.
