Uncharted: Drake's Fortune

  • Uncharted Theme: An underused theme that was Overshadowed by Awesome by Nate's theme, but is still excellent.
  • Nate's Theme is the actual de facto theme of the series (used in every installment save A Thief's End; although a remixed version is played during the opening credits). Pure adventure in music form.

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

  • Nate's Theme 2.0. The original, made better.
  • The City's Secret, from the eponymous chapter, uses wind and string instruments beautifully to portray a melancholy, soft mood. It also shares a melody with the music played over exposition of Marco Polo, giving it some degree of gravitas.
  • Bustin' Chops, one of the battle themes.
  • Reunion is a simultaneously tragic and triumphant piece that plays during Schafer's death, symbolizing both Drake's sadness and his desire to push on and take the fight to Lazarevic.

Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception

  • Nate's Theme 3.0. Expands from the second game's already impressive rendition of the theme by adding in brass instruments.
  • The game's main battle theme, which kicks in all its glory during the final battle in Ubar, Atlantis of the Sands.
  • The Caravan. This game has a lot of Arabian-sounding pieces, but this is one of the best.
  • Badlands, which features a stirring version of the game's Leitmotif in the beginning.

Uncharted 4: A Thief's End

  • Nate's Theme returns... not as the main menu song, mind you, (the menu is silent) but as the opening and closing credits song. They somehow made the song even more epic.
  • Brother's Keeper, from the final duel with Rafe.
  • Cut to the Chase, which plays during the mansion fight, is guaranteed to get the blood pumping for a swashbuckling adventure.
  • For Better or Worse, a soft piano cue that represents Nate and Elena's marriage, used as they rebuild their relationship on Libertalia.
