Yep, you read the title right. Only day’s after the developers of the Uncharted franchise, Naughty Dog, released a brand new story trailer for the game, comes the unfortunate announcement that the game will no longer be released on it’s scheduled release date of April 26th, 2016.
Over on the PlayStation Blog today, SCEA’s Shawn Layden announced that the new release date for the game will be May 10th, 2016. The apparent reason behind this additional delay, is due to the high demand for the game, ultimately requiring Sony to require more time to manufacture copies.
“As you know, Naughty Dog is wrapping up production on Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End with the game on track to go gold and into production later this month. In an effort to meet the considerable worldwide demand, and to ensure that all gamers worldwide have the opportunity to play the game on day one, we have chosen to postpone the launch of the game by two weeks to allow for extra manufacturing time.
We know this news might be disappointing, and we are sorry to have to make you wait a little longer to play Naughty Dog’s latest. The good news is that the game is phenomenal — we are fully confident that it will be worth the wait and the team at Naughty Dog is eager as ever for you to experience Nathan Drake’s final adventure.”
Personally, I’m not crying just yet. There are enough titles dropping this Month that should have my attention until May at the very least. But how about you guys? How do you all feel about the Uncharted 4 delay? Let us know on Twitter @EXP4ALL
