When Uncharted premiered in 2022 under director Ruben Fleischer, critics were far from impressed. Though Tom Holland and Mark Wahlberg led the charge and the box office returns were solid, the film stumbled with reviewers, landing a mere 41% on Rotten Tomatoes. Devotees of the original video game were particularly vocal in their disappointment. Still, audiences saw something worth defending, offering a far kinder 89%. Often dismissed yet quietly admired, Uncharted now finds a new life, thanks to streaming, where forgotten films earn their redemption.

Tom Holland and Mark Wahlberg’s bold leap into gaming cinema, Uncharted, staged an unexpected comeback, proving that even a critic-bruised blockbuster has the power to level up with time.

Prime Video has recently welcomed Uncharted, the action-packed film inspired by the Naughty Dog video game franchise. According to FlixPatrol’s report, the film climbed to the fifth spot on Prime Video’s Top 10 Movies list, sitting just behind A Knight's War, Hidden Figures, The Accountant 2, and Heads of State. Though overlooked during its theatrical run in 2022, Uncharted is now earning fresh praise as one of the most polarizing yet popular video game adaptations on streaming.

Earlier this year, Uncharted soared on Netflix with over 10 million views. The film follows orphaned brothers Sam and Nate Drake, whose search for Magellan's hidden treasure begins with a stolen map. Years later, Nate teams up with fortune hunter Victor Sully Sullivan. What follows is a thrilling globe-trotting chase filled with betrayals, cryptic clues, secret crypts, and deadly mercenaries, unraveling secrets that stretch from Boston to the Philippines. With renewed attention and rising viewership, the spotlight now turns to what comes next for the franchise.

As Uncharted continues climbing the streaming charts, curiosity is reaching a fever pitch, fans everywhere are asking the same thing: is a sequel or part two finally on the way?

Although a sequel to Uncharted has not yet been released, the 2022 film appears far from finished. A second installment is still in development, though updates have remained scarce. With Tom Holland currently focused on other major projects such as Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey and Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the wait may be longer than expected. In an interview with ScreenRant, Mark Wahlberg revealed that a script has arrived, joking, “Start growing your mustache. It's gonna take awhile.”

Mark Wahlberg expressed his excitement about returning for the next chapter of Uncharted, saying he is curious to see where the story might lead and is looking forward to continuing the journey. While some fans speculate whether Tom Holland will take on the role of James Bond, Uncharted's comeback has impressed a massive fanbase sparking renewed interest in a long-awaited sequel.
