After the success of last year’s big PS3 exclusive Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, a sequel was inevitable. While the first details won’t be revealed until later this month when Game Informer’s January 2009 issue hits newsstands and the debut trailer premieres during Spike TV’s 2008 Video Game Awards show on December 14th, Naughty Dog today unveiled the game’s title, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, and Game Informer released the cover shot of their January issue featuring the title as its headline story (image above is a cropped portion of the cover). Despite no game specifics being announced yet, we can learn one major thing about the game from the magazine cover alone. The setting has changed from dense, tropical jungles to frigid, snowy mountains. There is an announcement teaser up on GameTrailers.com as well, but I haven’t been able to check it out yet.
