Uncharted series star Nathan Drake makes his first-ever appearance on iOS and Android devices this week with the launch of Uncharted: Fortune Hunter, a mobile-exclusive puzzler from Sony.

Sony also revealed that players who solve Uncharted: Fortune Hunter‘s mysteries will unlock bonus content in the PlayStation 4 series sequel Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End, which is set for release next week.

Uncharted: Fortune Hunter features characters and settings from previous Uncharted games, but shifts away from the series’ standard third-person shooter gameplay in favor of mechanics that are better suited for touch screens. The game features hundreds of puzzles in which players draw paths and tap on-screen hotspots in order to guide Drake to each level’s exit.

Available as a free download supported by in-app purchases, Uncharted: Fortune Hunter offers six major questlines that extend across four unique gameplay environments. After reaching specific gameplay milestones, players can unlock a series of “skins, relics and one-time-use boosters” for Uncharted 4‘s multiplayer mode.

Uncharted: Fortune Hunter‘s switch to puzzle-oriented gameplay mirrors Square Enix’s recent mobile releases Hitman Go and Lara Croft Go, which featured similar touch-driven, turn-based mechanics.

Nathan Drake’s mobile debut promotes the upcoming launch of Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End, which is set to hit the PlayStation 4 next week. Developed by franchise creator Naughty Dog, Uncharted 4 is pitched as the final entry in the series, wrapping up storyline elements that have lingered since 2007’s Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune.

Fortune Hunter is the latest in a string of Uncharted games and related media that have premiered throughout the last year. October of 2015 saw the launch of Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection, a PlayStation 4 compilation release that bundled upgraded versions of Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, and Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception.

Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End launches digitally and at retail on May 10th.

AMD is quietly building a frame generation mode that beats Nvidia at its own game
AMD's next frame generation trick might make your GPU pump out seven extra frames for free.
AMD RX 7800

AMD has been hinting at Multi-Frame Generation for its Radeon cards for a while now, and it looks like the company is further along than it has let on. Preliminary support quietly showed up in the ADLX FidelityFX SDK back in April with the FSR Redstone update, letting users pick a frame generation ratio for the best mix of performance and image quality.

Since then, AMD has shipped several big driver updates, including FSR 4.1.1. As reported by Wccftech, a user on the Chiphell forums used a tool called RadeonTuner to dig through the Adrenalin 26.6.2 WHQL drivers and found options AMD has not talked about publicly. RadeonTuner is a cleaner, more user-friendly take on the Adrenalin software, and it can surface features that live inside the driver but never appear in the official app.

I wouldn’t have recommended this Nintendo Switch 2 accessory before, but this deal changes everything
Nintendo Switch 2

Buying a Nintendo Switch 2 isn't exactly cheap these days, especially after Nintendo's recent US price adjustments. That's why it's refreshing to see one of the console's accessories getting an unexpectedly deep discount.

If you've ignored the official Nintendo Switch 2 Camera because it seemed overpriced, now might be the perfect time to take another look. GameStop has slashed the accessory to just $10, a huge drop from its regular $55 asking price. That's roughly 82% off, making it one of the best Switch 2 deals we've seen in a while. To put that into perspective, the camera now costs less than many Switch 2 carrying cases or screen protectors. At this price, it's much easier to take a chance on an accessory you may have skipped at launch.

Well… at least God of War Laufey is getting a physical disc
Santa Monica Studio quietly confirmed the upcoming adventure won't be download-only.

Last week, Sony lit the gaming community on fire by announcing that all new PlayStation games released from January 2028 onwards would be digital-only, effectively bringing an end to physical discs for future releases. At the same time, the company also confirmed it would shut down the PlayStation 3 and PS Vita digital stores by July 2027, reinforcing concerns that digital storefronts and the games tied to them don't last forever. Unsurprisingly, the announcements triggered widespread backlash from collectors and long-time PlayStation fans. In the middle of all that, Santa Monica Studio offered a surprisingly comforting update: God of War Laufey will be available on disc. It's only one sentence, but it says a lot.

More than just a physical release
