Uncharted 2 has now been officially confirmed, has a setting, a name, and is finally really real. He still has the same shirt though – god dammit change it, it’s snowing! You can see a very short teaser video for the game over on GameTrailers, but a full video is expected to arrive very soon after it airs on the 2008 Spike Video Game Awards on the December 14th in the US.
According to GameInformer, the sequel, which is called Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, will revolve around the 13th century explorer Marco Polo and his voyages. In terms of gameplay it will up the ante on the old game with free climbing mechanics and stealth gameplay in all-new locations, and with brand new characters.
We were big time fans of the first game, as you can see by our review here.

The first game was good, got quite far but still need to complete it. The best aspect were the scenery/graphics, but I found the repetitive bad guys quite annoying and I hope the sequel has more combat set pieces instead of just plonking you in an area with 10 people who you’ve killed many times already.
Basing the new story on Marco Polo sounds great.
