Uncharted 4 development ‘will not be impacted’
Amy Hennig, writer and director on theUnchartedseries, has left Naughty Dog, Sony has confirmed toIGN.
In her 10 years at Naughty Dog, Hennig was most known for writing and directing the threeUnchartedPS3 games. She was also writing and heading the upcomingUncharted PS4 title. “The development timeline ofUnchartedwill not be impacted,” Sony’s statement reads.
IGN sources claim Hennig was “forced out” byThe Last of Us’ Neil Druckmann and Bruce Straley, whom might be taking overUncharted(they co-wrote and co-directedUncharted 2, respectively).
That Hennig, whose last day was March 3, might have been “forced out” is surprising and discomforting. We’refortunatefor her work on the series up until this point and I’m interested to see what she does next, as well as what this may mean for theUnchartedseries andThe Last of Usleads.
