The series follows modern-day treasure hunter Nathan "Nate" Drake, journalist Elena Fisher and former companions Victor Sullivan,Chloe Frazer, and Charlie Cutter (the latter two joining in future titles), as they travel around the world to uncover (and steal) various historical mysteries.

Though the game's story follows Cole using his new abilities to restore some semblance of order to Empire City, the player is given several opportunities to use these powers for good or evil purposes in the game's Karma system. These choices ultimately affect character growth, the reaction of the City's populace towards Cole, and finer elements of gameplay and the story.

The player takes the role of one of the remaining human armed forces as they fight against the Chimera invasion.
