April is Prevention of Cruelty to Animals month and Naughty Dog is trying to make everybody aware with some animal themed items for Uncharted 3: Multiplayer characters. For April, and only April, Naughty Dog will have some very special and limited DLC available for purchase. Pogo and Trumpet, the pets of studio co-presidents Evan Wells and Christophe Balestra, are now immortalized on custom t-shirts and weapons. All proceeds from the sales of these items will go to a charity that supports the prevention of cruelty to animals. These items will be available individually and as bundles. The sales of the Pogo and Trumpet items will start April 2 in the North American regions and later in the month in all other regions.
That won’t be all, though. Naughty Dog is also launching other animal themed character parts DLC globally this month. Every animal item you’ll be able to purchase as part of the animal theme is outlined over on Naughty Dog’s UNCHARTED 3 Multiplayer Free-to-Play page. We will have a bundle for all the animal themed parts that includes the exclusive T-Rex Head for Talbot.
All proceeds from the sales of Pogo and Trumpet items go to a charity supporting the Prevention of Cruelty to AnimalsOne of the coolest things about the animal theme will be the new Tournament rewards that can be earned. You can earn the Croc Gun and Mr Croc Shirt as Tournament rewards. If you hit the gold tier you can earn the unique Snake Eyes T-shirt. The Shade Raptor Mask for Drake and Shade Dive Helmet for Talbot are achieved by reaching Platinum status. Buy tickets to enter into the weekly Tournament and unlock these items as a testament to your outstanding gameplay ability.
I’m sure PETA will be silent on this issue, but what about you the reader? Are you going to dabble in some of these animal themes? Let us know in the comment section below.
