Jak IV Won't be Announced for PlayStation 3 Soon

Jak IV?
After the relatively unexpected Uncharted 2 reveal, what kind of joys might be met by the announcement of Jak IV. One website hones in on a shaky statement.

The Dutch website PS3Life.nl highlights an unofficial rumour that made the rounds in October of this year.

The article revealed the December announcement of Uncharted 2, along with other details which have since been proven correct. The now justified source went on to mention another Naughty Dog project, suspecting that it might be Jak and Daxter IV.

However reliable the source might be, there's no way Jak IV will be announced for the PlayStation 3, since Naughty Dog are head deep in Uncharted 2: Among Thieves development.

If anything, there might be a Jak and Daxter release on the PSP, in a similar vein to Resistance Retribution, which was not developed by the series' PlayStation 3 developer Insomniac, but by Bend Studios. Or perhaps Jak might come to the PlayStation Network, like Ratchet and Clank: Quest for Booty.

Thanks to TheSixthAxis for bringing the rumour to our attention.

  • Adam Black, UK: I hope this means Jak IV will still be coming out in December 2009 next year as we've given naughtydog 2-3 chances as there's not been a JAK game since 2005 and normally Jak would of done something by now. So hope they don't get drawn into Uncharted. I mean the toons are way better with brightness and 3-D scenes.

  • David Macphail, Cupar, Scotland: I hope the rumours are true, Jak & Daxter: The Lost Frontier would be probably the biggest announcement there is left to make. This game would be better than God Of War 3, easy!
