Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End’s Lead Game Designer Kurt Margenau has disclosed what looks to be the latest next-generation render of the adventure series’ charismatic hero, Nathan Drake.
Shared via his Twitter, the image, seen below, shows a close-up of battle-weary star – now holding a more distinct similarity to voice actor Nolan North – looking into the distance, with a heap of forehead lines to boot.
It’s unknown whether the image is in-game or pre-rendered, but judging from Uncharted 4’s now-legendary E3 trailer, it looks as if this could in fact by from the game’s playable state.

The image comes from Naughty Dog’s thirty-year celebration, where the developer’s holding a party-of-sorts before a special announcement on September 30. In conjunction with the celebration, the intrepid developer’s also releasing ‘The Art of Naughty Dog’ on October 14 – a book detailing the artwork of the studio’s 30-year-long career.
Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End is scheduled to release at some point late into 2015.
