Kotaku has it from an ‘informed source’ this afternoon that the as yet to be announced Uncharted 3 will take our hero Nathan Drake to the sandy surrounds of the desert. No other details are given other than this new setting.

If true then this would be Nathan’s first trip to the desert. He’s been to the jungle and up the snow lined mountains. We’d love to see what Naughty Dog could do with sand. Either way, we know this is going to be a winner.

Let’s hope this is one of the huge titles Sony will be announcing before Christmas.
