Many PS4 gamers went wild when they heard their Uncharted adventures would continue with Chloe and Nadine in The Lost Legacy last year. The initial disappointment of the DLC not following our beloved Drake was quickly followed by excitement at a fan favorite and rather badass character making a return. At the time we didn’t know why Chloe and Nadine were chosen, but thanks to PlayStation Blog’s Sid Shuman we do now. Mr. Shuman recently sat down with a few minds over at Naughty Dog and specifically with Creative Director, Shaun Escayg.

He revealed that Chloe was revisited because the team saw her as an interesting character with a darker moral compass compared to Drake. “They’re both treasure hunters. Drake has a bit of a hero complex, but Chloe looks out for number one, first and foremost.” Nadine makes an appearance because Chloe would need someone with military expertise to attain the Tusk (the treasure currently sought after). It just so happens that Nadine fits that role in particular because of her actions in Uncharted 4. She’s in need of work and desperate.

If you haven’t played the fourth Uncharted entry, skip to the next paragraph now! Nadine was the leader of an efficient mercenary group called Shoreline. They were hired by antagonist Rafe to help him find Libertalia. Long story short, Nadine was getting fed up with the defeats she was given (although not in combat that’s for sure) and was tired of wasting resources. She was going to take Shoreline and leave, but Rafe paid her group more money then she ever could. Of course, Nadine trapped Rafe into a 1 on 1 battle with Drake when she could and left.

Escayg also explained how these two opposites would attract and benefit from one another. “They’re opposites. Chloe is spontaneous and impulsive, where Nadine is by the book, structured,” Escayg explained. “That made for a good pairing.” Plus, their roles have been swapped as Chloe is running the show and Nadine is the hired gun instead of vice-versa.

Uncharted: The Lost Legacy is expected to drop later this year, but as to when is anyone’s guess. However, we have been informed the standalone expansion will be longer than Last of Us: Left Behind and shorter than Uncharted 4. Is anyone really that surprised by the latter though? Hit us up in the comments below on your thoughts about two badass female characters teaming up. Anything you’re looking forward to specifically? Let us know!

ReFantazio Takes a Different Approach to Romance, Setting Itself Apart from the Persona Games

Atlus’ highly anticipated RPG, Metaphor: ReFantazio, appears to incorporate familiar systems reminiscent of the developer’s acclaimed Persona series. The game features turn-based battles that heavily rely on exploiting enemy weaknesses. Additionally, players have the ability to summon warrior spirits during combat. However, the most significant aspect of this game, which will be discussed in this article, is the bonding system. Through this system, players can spend time with important characters and gain deeper insights into their personalities and stories.

In contrast to the Persona games, the bonding system ends at that point. Unfortunately, players will be unable to pursue romantic relationships with their beloved waifus, which may come as a disappointment to those who have developed strong feelings for Hulkenberg, the party’s charismatic red-haired elven knight.

According to Siliconera, the absence of romance came up during a recent question and answer session. Atlus emphasized the continued opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with your allies while also introducing additional narratives through substories. In addition, familiarizing yourself with the supporting characters will grant you access to new archetypes, which serve as the game’s character classes.

In the Persona games, romance is not obligatory; rather, it serves as a means to customize your playthrough. However, it is quite unexpected that Metaphor has chosen not to pursue such a venture, considering the significant amount of discussion it typically generates!

Were you anticipating any romantic elements in Metaphor? If you’re not satisfied with your pre-order, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

It appears that many

are eagerly anticipating the launch of the highly anticipated PS5 exclusive, Stellar Blade. Shift Up, the developer, has shared a lengthy video showcasing the “secrets” found in the physical box of the game for PS5. From what we can gather, these secrets include a reversible cover/dust jacket and a download code for cosmetic items.

We must clarify that while we do appreciate the variant cover, it may be more appealing than the game’s standard art. However, it is not something we would typically classify as a “secret.”. However, what’s interesting is that Shift Up has confirmed through the comments section that this will be the case in all regions. Additionally, the visually striking action RPG will remain uncensored worldwide.

It’s refreshing to witness a developer going the extra mile for physical collectors, and it’s evident that the developer is determined to leave a favorable mark in the console realm. Stellar Blade is set to make its highly anticipated debut this Friday, April 26th, exclusively on the PS5.
