Uncharted 4 vs. Shadow of the Tomb Raider

So Who Wins?

2017

Both Uncharted 4 and Shadow of the Tomb Raider arguably represent the pinnacle of their respective series. On the surface, they’re similar sorts of experiences, though in reality they actually play very differently –and the tone of their stories are totally at odds with each other. Still, at the end of the day, they’re third-person action/adventure titles heavily inspired by intrepid action heroes like Indiana Jones, set amid exotic environments and spanning ancient ruins and mythology.

Honestly, you should go and play both games. But if you’ve only got the time for one, we’d still have to crown Uncharted 4 as King of this particular flavor of action-game. Again, they do offer slightly different takes on buccaneering sort of action, but Uncharted 4 represents the better overall package.
