Naughty Dog is Shutting Down PS3 Multiplayer Servers for Uncharted 2, Uncharted 3, and The Last of Us in September

It seems like yesterday that Uncharted 2, 3, and The Last of Us launched. But its been about 10 years since Uncharted 2: Among Thieves launched and Naughty Dog is moving on from these projects, ending multiplayer support for all of them.

After nearly 10 years of operation, on Tuesday, September 3, 2019 [5:00 PM PT] we will be bidding farewell to the multiplayer servers for Naughty Dog games on the PlayStation 3, including Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception, The Last of Us, and The Last of Us Left Behind. It’s bittersweet to say the least. Uncharted and The Last of Us multiplayer on the PS3 are defining entries in Naughty Dog’s history and we’ve been honored to support the passionate communities that have grown around them for almost a decade. We have so many fond memories from playing alongside you throughout the years.

However, we wanted to make sure we gave multiplayer on PS3 a proper send-off. From now until September 3, 2019 [5:00 PM PT] all multiplayer services will remain intact and we’re making all multiplayer DLC for Uncharted 2, Uncharted 3, and The Last of Us on PS3 totally free. Just fire up PlayStation Store and look for our new free Uncharted 2, Uncharted 3, and The Last of Us multiplayer DLC bundles, which include all gameplay and vanity items. Whether you’re an active player or want to play a few rounds for old time’s sake, there’s never been a better time to experience the full breadth of Uncharted 2, Uncharted 3, The Last of Us, and The Last of Us Left Behind multiplayer on PS3.

Thank you to everyone who has played Uncharted and The Last of Us multiplayer on PS3 and for all of your incredible enthusiasm, feedback, and support.

As always, be sure to follow Naughty Dog on Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram for the latest updates from the studio.

According to Naughty Dog, all servers for the multiplayer portion of each of these games will be officially closed this September 9th. This is shocking, not that the games are going offline but that people are still playing them for so long.

As for The Last of Us PS4, you can still play that online when the PS3 version is closed down.
