But through a combination of great writing and acting, as well as much more expressive characters thanks to the game’s enhanced graphics, the story transcends its formula. There’s heartbreak, deception, and death-defying escapes.
There are multiple sides racing to find the same treasure Nathan and Sam are up against a literal army of mercenaries. Uncharted 4’s story is a pretty typical pulp adventure. Sam has been described as more reckless than Nate and a little jealous of his brother’s achievements. It is said his disappearance is what originally caused Nate to pursue a life of treasure hunting. Sam is five years older than his younger brother Nate, and previously thought to be dead.
