Uncharted: The Lost Legacy Reviews
Uncharted: The Lost Legacy is a great standalone adventure featuring two extremely charismatic personalities. There's a story here that's brilliantly told with intertwined gameplay/narrative design that I've not seen in a game in some time. The intriguing relationship of Chloe/Nadine made playing through the game more than worth it, and some questionable new gameplay mechanics couldn't detract from an otherwise brilliant experience.
Charts a clear new course for the franchise
The best in the series since Uncharted 2, Chloe Frazer's Indian sojourn is a thrilling, fresh and engaging adventure.
Despite the absence of Nathan Drake, this is still very much an Uncharted game, and it hasn't lost a beat.
When the game does relinquish control, during firefights and around puzzles, it tends to improve sharply. Such is the case in chapter 9, where the designs of the studio meet the input of the player to create a winning symbiosis. Earlier chapters are far less successful and consistent. The end result is a game that's less than the sum of its parts.
While I'm in the former camp, I also realise I'm likely outnumbered by those in the latter.
A solid adventure whose gameplay should maybe take the 'Un' out of Uncharted
Although not quite on the same level as the previous games in the Uncharted series, Lost Legacy is still a very worth play with some new gaming mechanics added and truly impressive graphics.
The Uncharted series may have moved away from our old pal Drake, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Uncharted: The Lost Legacy is as beautiful as ever, and its storyline is just as captivating as you would expect. In fact, the arch, peaks, and valley, in terms of its plot, are unmatched in the current landscape.
Chloe and Nadine's adventure demonstrates that the world of Uncharted can tell many other stories even without the iconic Nathan Drake. The Lost Legacy is a successful spin-off that includes the very best of the series and offer a new and interesting point of view.

Uncharted: The Lost Legacy honors its parentage with engaging characters and exotic landscapes, setting the stage for more of the best action gameplay out there. It's much of the same, but that's OK when “the same” is this good.
Proof that Uncharted can exist without Nathan Drake.
I, for one, can't wait to see where the series takes us next.
Uncharted: The Lost Legacy takes the fun, tight gameplay of Uncharted 4 and provides an opportunity to take a somewhat slower look at two incredibly well written characters on a fun romp through a beautifully presented version of India. While it introduces little new, it provides most of what you expect from an Uncharted game and everything great about the previous entries into a cohesive package that strips away the filler, providing a condensed but stunning and worthwhile journey.
Chloe’s journey is strong and powerful, and I’m excited to see what the future holds for Uncharted and it’s characters.
Uncharted: The Lost Legacy is a worthwhile but weightless spin-off
Clocking in at around six and a half hours, Uncharted: The Lost Legacy is a worthy entry in the franchise and far from a cash grab. Considering its budget price tag and the inclusion of Uncharted 4's full multiplayer suite, it's an unexpected, albeit superlative return to a franchise that's been consistently entertaining.
The Lost Legacy has come to finalize Uncharted series; at least the ones that are already released. Best element and most epic moments of this lovely franchise have found their way to The Lost Legacy and with 40$ price tag, this beautiful spin-off is a must-buy for every uncharted fan out there.

Naughty Dog has done a great job again. Uncharted: The Lost Legacy is truly a masterpiece. It is a symbol of the power and the magnificence of the 8th generation. Naughty Dog is one of a kind. They single-handedly increased the fans and, of course, the buyers of the Sony PlayStation 4 and this is something that not everyone can do. There are only a few developers that can create a franchise like this. A franchise that gets great ratings from dour critics; a franchise that encourages people to buy a console. Sony should be happy to have one of the best game developers of all time working just for them. Naughty Dog is truly a living legend in today's game industry. The legendary Naughty Dog and its genius creators have shown the world how to make a good game, again! With the little time they had to make something that was supposed to be an expansion pack at first, what we see today is crazy.

Uncharted: The Lost Legacy doesn't add anything new to the familiar formula of Uncharted series. It also doesn't have great set pieces like the airplane crash mission in uncharted 3 or train mission in Uncharted 2. The game, in fact, is like a collection of all the great features that the series is known for and is a great ending for a great franchise. The Lost legacy also improves the level design of Uncharted 4 and has its own creative moments and achievements.
