Uncharted 5 Is Reportedly In Development And Will Feature Nathan Drake

Naughty Dog is focused on releasing its first new IP since 2013's The Last of Us in Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, but a new report suggests it is also busy with the revival of its biggest franchise.

According to MP1st, and corroborated by VGC, Naughty Dog could be developing Uncharted 5, a sequel to a series that last saw an entry in 2017.
