Uncharted 1-3 Pc Repack
There is no official PC release for Uncharted 1: Drake's Fortune , Uncharted 2: Among Thieves , or Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception
. These games were originally developed by Naughty Dog as PlayStation exclusives.
When you see "Uncharted 1-3 PC REPACK" online, it typically refers to one of the following:
PS3 Emulation Bundles: Many "repacks" (such as those from Gnarly Repacks) actually package the original PlayStation 3 game files along with the RPCS3 emulator pre-configured for PC play.
The Nathan Drake Collection (PS4): While this remastered collection exists for PlayStation 4, there is no official PC port. Any PC "repack" of this collection is also likely utilizing emulation. Confusion with Legacy of Thieves: The only Uncharted games officially available on PC are Uncharted 4: A Thief's End and Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
, sold together as the UNCHARTED: Legacy of Thieves Collection. Summary of Availability Game Title Platform(s) Official PC Version? Uncharted 1-3 PS3, PS4 (Remastered) No (Emulation only) Uncharted 4 PS4, PS5, PC Yes The Lost Legacy PS4, PS5, PC Yes Uncharted 1-3 Pc REPACK
Note: If you choose to use an emulator repack, ensure you have a powerful CPU, as emulating these titles is hardware-intensive. UNCHARTED™: Legacy of Thieves Collection on Steam DirectX: Version 12. Storage: 126 GB available space. Steam Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection (2015) - GOG.com
3. Installation Guide
Step 1: Download
- Download the torrent or direct download links from the repack site.
- Ensure you have enough space for the downloaded file and the installed game.
Step 2: Disable Antivirus (Temporarily)
- Windows Defender often flags "cracked" game files as malware (false positives). Disable "Real-time protection" in Windows Security before extracting.
Step 3: Installation
- Open the downloaded folder.
- Run the setup.exe.
- Select your install location (preferably an SSD for faster loading).
- Wait for the installation to finish. This can take 30–90 minutes depending on your PC speed.
Step 4: Launching the Game
- Navigate to the installation folder.
- Most repacks come with a launcher. You will likely see "RPCS3" (the emulator) inside the folder.
- Drag and drop the game file (
.pkgor the folder containingEBOOT.BIN) onto the RPCS3 executable, or open RPCS3 and select File > Boot Game.
What Is a REPACK, Exactly?
In the warez scene, a REPACK is a cracked version of a game that has been re-compressed to reduce download size. Repackers (groups like FitGirl, DODI, or scene offshoots) strip unnecessary data—uncompressed audio, redundant textures, and even multilingual video files—and use advanced compression algorithms (e.g., FreeArc, Zstandard) to shrink the install footprint.
For a native PC game, this is straightforward. For Uncharted 1-3, however, no native PC port exists. Therefore, every so-called “Uncharted 1-3 PC REPACK” is actually a repackaged PlayStation 3 emulator (RPCS3) with the games pre-loaded, pre-configured, and bundled into a one-click installer.
4. Essential Configuration (Making it Playable)
Most Repacks come pre-configured, but if the game runs poorly, adjust these settings inside the RPCS3 emulator:
Graphics (Graphics Tab):
- Renderer: Vulkan (Best for NVIDIA/AMD). If you crash, try OpenGL.
- Resolution: Set "Resolution Scale" to 1280x720 or 1920x1080 initially. Do not push 4K unless you have a very high-end GPU.
- Frame Limiter: Set to 30 FPS. (Uncharted physics can break at 60fps+).
CPU (CPU Tab):
- PPU Decoder: Recompiler (LLVM).
- SPU Decoder: Recompiler (ASMJIT).
- Additional Settings: Check "Write Color Buffers" if textures look glitchy.
Advanced (Advanced Tab):
- Vblank Frequency: Set to
30 Hzto smooth out the framerate cap. - Clocks Scale: Keep at 100%.
5. Troubleshooting Common Issues
Problem: Black Screen on Startup
- Solution: Update your GPU drivers. Inside RPCS3, right-click the game -> Change Custom Configuration -> Graphics Tab -> switch Renderer from Vulkan to OpenGL (or vice versa).
Problem: Game is in Slow Motion
- Solution: This is usually a CPU bottleneck.
- Ensure your power plan is set to "High Performance" in Windows.
- Lower the resolution scale in RPCS3.
- Close background apps (Chrome, Discord).
Problem: Controller Not Working
- Solution: RPCS3 supports XInput (Xbox controllers) natively. Plug it in before launching RPCS3.
- If using a PS4/PS5 controller, you may need DS4Windows installed to emulate an Xbox controller.
Problem: Save Data Corrupt
- Solution: Repacks sometimes include pre-made save files. If not, you may need to start a new game. Avoid using "Savestates" (instant saves); use the in-game "Save Points" for stability.
4. Lack of Keyboard/Mouse Support
These repacks are still the PS3 version. The on-screen prompts show PlayStation buttons (△, ○, X, □). You will need a DualShock 4 or Xbox controller. Keyboard and mouse emulation is clunky at best.
