Released in French cinemas on February 16, the film Uncharted hit the box office worldwide ($139 million at the end of the first weekend of operation) to the point of already being profitable (it cost $120 million of dollars). Figures that have undoubtedly reassured the producers after mixed reviews to say the least. If it is Tom Holland who plays the role of Nathan Drake in the feature film, we should not forget that since the beginning of the series in 2007 on PS3, the hero is doubled by Nolan North.
Moreover, PlayStation has requested his services to produce a video in which the American actor reveals all the easter eggs present in the film. Some are easy to find, others, on the other hand, require a perfect knowledge of the franchise. While Uncharted 4: A Thief's End was supposed to put an end to the license, Naughty Dog would no longer rule out the possibility of extending the pleasure, without it being known for the moment whether Nathan Drake will be back or not.

In 2019, Nolan North already confided: "A lot of people want a fifth episode for Uncharted, but the train has passed. It's great that so many people remember such an iconic license. In fact, we didn't even know not that there would be an Uncharted 2. I only remember being excited to be involved in this second installment, and when it started to hit, Naughty Dog knew there would be Uncharted 3 and Uncharted 4. [...] On the other hand, you don't want it to last too long at the risk of it becoming nonsense. It's true that it was both sweet and bitter to wrap up the series, but we're proud of what we've accomplished. Besides, Naughty Dog and Sony wanted it to end this way, so that's fine with me."
Recently, Christina-Marie Drake McBrearty, freshly recruited by Naughty Dog, explained in her LinkedIn CV that her mission was to "build future teams not only to create new games, but also for the legacy of Uncharted which represents something very personal for me and my family." It was enough to revive hope among the fans.
