Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End gets pushed back to April 26th, 2016

Welp, a little bit of bad news for PS4 gamers looking forward to Nathan Drake’s next big adventure. Naughty Dog has decided to push the game’s March 18th, 2016 release date off a bit longer in order to polish it up a bit more.

As a result, the new release date is officially April 26th, 2016 (27th in Euro-land). See the announcement here on the PS Blog and below.

Let?s start with the good news: Uncharted 4: A Thief?s End is wrapping up production and is shaping up to be the proper send off for Nathan Drake that we?ve promised you. The bad news is that we need a bit more time to finish the game so that it meets our standards and vision. Let?s cut to the chase, Uncharted 4: A Thief?s End has a new release date in North America of April 26, 2016.

This is our largest Uncharted game to date, and the team has been working incredibly hard to meet the challenge of closing out the game?s development in a timely manner. However, as we approached our final deadlines and started wrapping up the game?s levels, we realized that several key sequences needed extra resources to bring them to the finish line. After carefully considering all of our options, we decided to extend our schedule, making sure that we get a few more polish passes before submitting our gold master (the final disc for manufacturing).

Pushing the date is not an easy choice, and we wouldn?t do it if we didn?t feel in our hearts it?s the best course of action for the game. To you, our loyal fans, we hope you?ll accept our sincere apology. We know many of you have been waiting patiently for Nathan Drake?s final chapter, and now we humbly ask you to wait a bit longer.

On April 26, 2016 the most ambitious installment in the Uncharted series will be in your hands.
