Lured back to a world of thievery and treasure hunting, Nathan Drake is hot on the track of another ancient artefact in this sequel to the classic adventure title.

The original Uncharted was one of the first PlayStation 3 titles to live up to the hype the console had created, producing some of the most stunning visuals yet seen on the system. Uncharted 2 – Among Thieves takes place a number of years after the events of the first Uncharted, as Nathan returns to his treasure hunting roots to track down the lost ships of Marco Polo. Uncharted 2 carefully balances stealth, gunplay and platforming into a well-paced adventure that sees Drake move from urban cities to the chilling Himalayas.

Perhaps the most prominent addition to Uncharted 2 is a robust and in-depth multiplayer system. Players can now take Drake and others online to compete in a series of multiplayer matches that blend action and platforming. A co-operative mode is also on offer that allows up to three players to team up and complete a series of objectives.

Uncharted 2 – Among Thieves maintains the pedigree of one of the PlayStation 3’s best action titles, the same care and attention now given to both single player and multiplayer aspects of the game.
