Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection finally releases on PS4 tomorrow, but will it push people to purchase a PS4 system? Sony seems to think so.

“It certainly has the power to be a system-seller this Christmas,” PlayStation UK product manager Joe Palmer said in an interview with MCV. “It offers fantastic value as a gifting proposition, giving newcomers the chance to pick up a PlayStation 4 with three great games at a very competitive price. PlayStation’s audience base has also changed significantly since the original Uncharted games were released, so there’s a huge number of gamers looking to buy a PS4 who may never have played these games before.”

It may have a good chance to sell units as many current PS4 owners have never played any Uncharted titles according to Naughty Dog.

“We did a lot of research and discovered that about 80 percent of the people that own a PS4 have never played Uncharted, period. That was one of the reasons why we thought remastering it would be a good idea,” Eric Monicelli said.

The Uncharted Collection arrives tomorrow for PlayStation 4, and includes the three Uncharted games released on PlayStation 3: Drake’s Fortune, Among Thieves, and Drake’s Deception.
