'Uncharted 4' PS4 Gameplay, Release Date News: 'A Thief's End' Available March 18, 2016

We've finally learned when we can expect the highly anticipated gameplay of Uncharted 4: A Thief's End featuring everyone's favorite character Nathan Drake from developers Naughty Dog. In a new blog post announcement over at PlayStation, the official release date for Uncharted 4 has been set earlier than most of us thought: March 18, 2016. The game will be available for PS4, plus a pre-order of the game allows players to experience special and collector's editions of the title. Learn more about this news below.

Previously, reports suggested that A Thief's End would hit shelves in the Spring of 2016, but now we know it's coming a few months earlier than expected.

"So we've made the difficult choice of pushing the game's release date," a blog post from the game directors earlier in 2015 said. "The team at Naughty Dog will be heads down working through 2015 making sure that Nathan Drake's story gets the closure it deserves. Come Spring 2016, you and Nate are in for one thrilling, emotional ride."

The statement from the directors remains the same regarding the scale of the project, but we get to play it earlier than expected! This is clearly a win for gamers, especially with the special editions that we can get with pre-orders, too!

"As we all eagerly count down the days, we have news to share on all of our pre-order offerings, including two limited edition versions of the game: Uncharted 4: A Thief's End Special Edition and Uncharted 4: A Thief's End Libertalia Collector's Edition," PlayStation announced this week. "For our PlayStation Store customers, don't worry, we've got something in store for you as well!"

According to IGN, the preorder will be available this week and includes some great new features.
