Earlier this morning, Uncharted: Fight for Fortune was confirmed to be hitting the PlayStation Vita on December 4th for $4.99. We covered a lot of information in the original news piece and posted a trailer of the game, but Chris Reese, Co-Studio Director at Bend Studio, took to the comments section of the PS Blog to reveal even more about FFF.
Here’s a rundown of all the tidbits, in full bullet point glory:
- They don’t consider it a side project, but only three people at Bend Studio worked with One Loop to develop the game.
- Bend designed the game, One Loop developed it.
- You can expect much bigger titles from Bend in the near future.
- There will be trophies.
- You don’t need to own Uncharted: Golden Abyss to play Fight for Fortune, FFF just reads the saved game data from your memory card.
- If you connect Fight For Fortune to Golden Abyss, it will allow you to power up a bunch of different cards.
- Uncharted: Fight For Fortune encompasses the entire canon of the series.
- The $5 Uncharted: Fight for Fortune purchase gets you cards and characters from Uncharted: Golden Abyss, Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune as well as Uncharted: The Eye of Indra.
- The two expansion packs will have cards and characters from Uncharted 2: Among Thieves and Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception.
- Relationships are important in the game and give you combos (example: play a Drake, Sully, and Elena card next to each other for a triple combo).
- There will be a demo available on December 4th.
- The single player will feature between 6-8 hours of playtime.
- Over a year was spent fine tuning the game to make sure it was balanced.
- Fight For Fortune was made with full approval from Naughty Dog.
