How to run in Uncharted 4

You expect Sully to sprint after you?!

Uncharted 4 is a fantastic game, and players get to experience it again with the release of the Legacy of Thieves collection. You join Nathan Drake on his final mission as he runs around trying to find the lost treasure of Henry Avery. Speaking of running, how do you do that?

Uncharted 4 doesn't actually have a run button. The speed of Nate is controlled purely by how far forward you push on the left stick. This may surprise newcomers who are used to being able to sprint in most games, however, Naughty Dog chose not to incorporate that function.

The Uncharted games have been known for their cinematic brilliance and enthralling storylines since the series began in 2007. Although running is needed for getting to cover, the game likes to focus on the details that are revealed by each of the characters.

This means that there are quite a few walking cutscenes and places where speed is limited to enhance the drama and concentrate on the plot points.

Although many players are not be fazed by the choice to exclude an L3 sprint option, some fans have made it known that it can be frustrating at points not to have the ability to run. Some areas of the game would arguably benefit from it, but we're sure you'll enjoy the experience all the same.
