Sony just made it official: as previously rumored, Uncharted 2 will feature a multiplayer aspect complete with Deathmatch and Co-op gameplay modes. There’s also Plunder, a wangled take on the age-old classic of Capture the Flag. Players are take on the role of a land-pirate with the objective of plundering gold from an enemy encampment and transport it back to base. Picking up gold handicaps your character in the way of cutting down weaponry selection to only a pistol and reducing movement speed. To combat this infliction of encumbrance, players can pass along the gold to other teammates by tossing or handing it over.
Check out a video trailer above showcasing various gameplay segments from the three modes. A open beta will commence on June 3, accessible through redeemable vouchers which are to be included in all North American copies of Sucker Punch’s electrifying PS3 romp inFamous.
