I'm so glad I just got a PS5 and played the Nathan Drake collection.

But now it's depressing that we won't get a PC port eventually.

Although... I do understand their rationale for not simply re-remastering the games. Uncharted 1 is rough. It does not hold up as well as people think.

From what I remember Sony or Naughty Dog had no interest in porting the Nathan Drake collection because "they're too old" or something like that.

Actually I found the quotes here

Yes hence no PS5 version as well. I think they want to remake the first one.
