The reach system in Uncharted 4 lets you do much more than simply hop from one handhold to the next along a clearly defined route. That’s where the reach system was formed,” Yates explained. “We wanted to be able to give the player very fine control and complete analog control over where Drake places his hands. And that meant giving players more control over Uncharted’s climbing than ever before. With some of those systems stripped away, the focus came more clearly into view: leveraging climbing in Uncharted 4 to connect the player to Nathan Drake and eventually Chloe Frazer in Uncharted: The Lost Legacy. The team was equipped with firsthand experience and visual references to understand balance and weight placement, as well as the thoughtfulness that has to go into each movement. That trip resulted in some pretty meaningful lessons for Uncharted 4’s new climbing system. “With Uncharted 4, we wanted to add more depth to the climbing and look at it more realistically,” Animation Director Jeremy Yates explained.Ī trip to an indoor climbing gym and lessons from an instructor early in production helped ground that endeavor. Climbing is a prime example of that next-gen evolution Uncharted 4 introduced a level of control players never had before while grounding Nathan Drake’s movements with stunning animations.
