Summary

In the sequel to Drake's Fortune, Nathan Drake comes across a map that showcases the location of Marco Polo's missing ships. It takes him on a journey to find the infamous Cintamani Stone, and uncover the truth behind it.

A massive leap from the first. Everything hits harder, the set pieces, pacing, gunplay, even the charm. The first game laid the bricks. This one built a temple and blew it up in style.

The story is not my thing. But you’re not here for that. It’s all about the action, and damn, it delivers.

A must-play if you’re into action-adventure, treasure hunts, and cinematic thrills. It’s an experience that still sets the standard for the genre.

A rather huge step up from the mostly okay first entry that pretty much did its best to patch out the issues the series had.

Visuals have noticeably improved; environmental variety is a huge step up; snowy environments are a fresh change from Uncharted 1, which had only jungles and bunkers.

Cover shooting and sometimes wonky shooting are passable but are aged, but what this entry did the best is ramping up set pieces to a new level. The train section with the attack helicopter chase is just iconic.

Characters and acting are great, but personally, even after playing this entry two times, I did not see the appeal of the new story of this entry. People still hype it up as the peak of the series. I know it's subjective, but I just don't get the appeal but can recognize the continued improvement of already established characters and a new fan favorite, Chloe Fraser, although all that cameraman drama was kinda odd and forced.

This entry has aged much better and is definitely worth a play.
