Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection is a compilation that includes remastered versions of both Uncharted 4: A Thief's End and Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, originally released on the PlayStation 4 in 2016 and 2017 respectively. These games were originally developed by Naughty Dog, with the PC port being made by Iron Galaxy Studios and published by PlayStation PC. This is the first time the Uncharted series came to PC, and is the first game developed by Naughty Dog to release on PC since Keef the Thief: A Boy and His Lockpick in 1989. The game only features slightly improved shadow resolution and filtering, anisotropic filtering and reflections compared to the PlayStation 5 release. The PC port also added support for FSR 2.1 and DLSS 2.

Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection released on October 19, 2022, nine months after its release on PlayStation 5. Review copies suffered from many severe glitches and stutters, which were mostly fixed through a launch day patch. Some reviews might thus not fully reflect the technical state of the game at release. On release, the game suffered from incorrectly-functioning motion blur, significantly longer loading-times compared to PlayStation 5, and the LoD was found to be inconsistent at times. Its performance was well-regarded with no intrusive stutters.

The post-launch patches addressed issues regarding stability, performance, mouse-input. LoD-management, motion-blur-visibility, and several bugfixes.

Anti-aliasing (AA)

Modify the game's executable to disable TAA

Recommended to use along with the Sharpening workaround, as the game may appear over sharpened after disabling TAA. If you own the Steam version, then use Steamless to unpack the executables first. Has to be applied to both u4.exe (base game) and tll.exe (The Lost Legacy) separately. Open the game's executable in a HEX editor (e.g. HxD). Find: 75 04 B0 01 EB 02 32 C0 41 88 86 93 14 01 00 as HEX. Replace it with: EB 04 B0 01 EB 02 32 C0 41 88 86 93 14 01 00 Find: C5 C0 57 FF 40 0F 95 C6 Replace it with: C5 C0 57 FF 40 32 F6 90 Save the changes.

Workaround (Nvidia): downgrade to older 517.48 GPU driver[dubious – discuss]
517.48 will be missing the NVIDIA-provided game optimizations and bugfixes from the 522.25 release. Reportedly did not solve the problem for all users.

Workaround: Turn off Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling
Reportedly did not solve the problem for all users. Go to Windows Settings. Click System. Click Display. Scroll to the bottom and click Graphics. Click on Change default graphics settings. Turn off Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling. Restart your computer.
