Uncharted 2 was just recently announced to have both a co-op and multiplayer feature. You can check out the trailer here. But that trailer doesn't tell you about what to exactly expect. Eurogamer has a preview of the multiplayer and the run it down for you.

Like all good theatrical surprises, it started with a feint: a video showing Nathan Drake leaping and scrambling up and over the tin shacks of a Nepalese village, much like what's already been seen of the game. Then he reached a rooftop, and the camera panned down to reveal a gaggle of enemies... with red nicknames over their heads. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves has online multiplayer.

In brief: there are two five-on-five competitive modes that we know about (more to come, we're assured), plus co-op campaigns for three players that are separate from the single-player story, but revisit much of it in tweaked form. We played all these modes. There will also be a "cinema" replay mode that captures full matches with free camera control, and a stat-tracking website. The feature-set seems to ape Halo 3's - hardly a bad role-model.

    Three player coop? Why not four?

    Still, coop for U2 is absolutely ace.

      Why three? Makes more sense for 2 seeing as chloe is a major character.

    This game is looking awesome.

    The PS3 game library never really interested me much, but now with the Uncharted games and Infamous, I just might have to start looking for a cheap PS3 to buy.

    Maybe their are only three main characters?

    Anyway sounds awesome, I'm thinking it looks like a cross between Gears of War and Metal Gear Online.

    Uncharted was good, but up until now it was just good, sure the graphics in Drakes Fortune we're still top notch and it was fun, but the only aspect of it is turning it from passive to aggressive. It's one of those games that is going to sell very well, anyone could have guessed it.
