We’re right on the doorstep of releasing the “Drake’s Fortune Multiplayer Pack” – our latest set of downloadable content which includes six character skins and two new maps available separately or as a bundle for use with UNCHARTED 2: Among Thieves.

The matchmaking system will then prioritize your matchmaking based on the installed content. The matchmaking system will first attempt to place you in matches where all Read more...
