Uncharted: Fight for Fortune announced for PS Vita

Sony has officially announced Uncharted: Fight for Fortune, an “action–adventure turn-based card game” featuring the heroes of the Uncharted universe, for PlayStation Vita. Created by Uncharted: Golden Abyss developer SCE Bend Studio and newcomer One Loop Games, it will launch as a download title on December 4 for $4.99 in North America and sometime in early December for a TBD price in Europe.

“The core gameplay in Uncharted: Fight for Fortune involves creating a team of Faction cards featuring heroes, villains, and mercenaries from the Uncharted universe, then using that team to defeat your opponent while defending yourself from their attacks,” explained technical director Chris Reese.

“Each Faction card can be equipped with powerful Resource and valuable Fortune cards, which enhance their stats and give them special abilities. Once you’ve selected and equipped a card, it’s time to head into battle! During combat, attacks either reduce the health of opposing Faction cards or the health of your opponent. Defeating an opposing Faction card removes it from play, while reducing the health of your opponent to zero wins you the game.”

Reese also revealed a new patch is in development for Uncharted: Golden Abyss, which will power up the artifacts you’ve collected for immediate use within Fight for Fortune. You’ll be able to use these artifacts in the upcoming card game to battle other players and AI.
