Naughty Dog has moved to quash rumors indicating that the firm’s upcoming PlayStation 3 adventure sequel Uncharted 2: Among Thieves requires a mandatory install of 1.7GB.
According to VG247, reports on the install originated from a listing printed on the game’s official boxart. However, this turned out to be nothing more than a typo, with Naughty Dog asserting that the game will not require an install.
Posting on the ubiquitous Internet phenomenon that is Twitter, the developer’s co-president, Christophe Balestra, stated: “Uncharted 2 does not require any install.” That’s that, then.
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves will be released exclusively for PS3 in October 2009.
