An Assassin's Creed or Uncharted-style Predator game is something Prey and Predator: Badlands director Dan Trachtenberg is "desperate for" and no, he hasn't forgotten the series' PS2 game rated 47 on Metacritic

Dan Trachtenberg has the weight of the whole Predator franchise on his shoulders after directing 2022's excellent series revival, Prey. With animated film Killer of Killers getting a strong response and the upcoming Predator: Badlands continuing the live-action train, Predator's on a major upswing. I just have one question: where's the great Predator video game?

That's a question Trachtenberg himself is looking for the answer to. "I am desperate for there to be a third-person action adventure, Uncharted, Assassin's Creed, that kind of open-world thing," he tells IGN. I won't come down too hard on Trachtenberg for perhaps implying that Uncharted is an open-world game, and either way he's certainly right that a AAA Predator game could be very cool.
