Boosters are a means of gaining an advantage in the multiplayer mode of Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception.
Overview[]
The booster system has had a few additions from its Uncharted 2: Among Thieves counterpart. This time around, boosters are able to be leveled up and with each level its effect will be enhanced. The way to level up boosters are by getting medals related to its effect, every booster can only be leveled up three times, with their levels being called Bronze (default), Silver and Gold. Each level increases the amount of medals to be gotten, or in some cases it can change the medal needed.
