With new details emerging, we want to take a look at what you need to know, right now, about the highly anticipated Uncharted 4 release.

In 2011, Naughty Dog released its third game in the Uncharted series. Uncharted 3 arrived for the PlayStation 3 and it immediately received widespread acclaim for its graphics, gameplay and story. Since then, we’ve seen the release of the PlayStation 4 and Naughty Dog’s The Last of Us. Both have helped to drive anticipation for an Uncharted 4 release.

Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End was first revealed in the fall of 2013. Since then, we’ve seen the series writer and director leave the company and the minds behind The Last of Us join the project. We’ve also seen gameplay teased and a number of new Uncharted 4 release details emerge, some good and some bad.

The official Uncharted 4 release date remains unconfirmed though we’re finally starting to nail down a precise window for Naughty Dog’s next big edition to the world of Uncharted.

With E3 2015 just weeks away and new details now available, we want to take a look at everything we know right now about the Uncharted 4 release. This includes new details and it will bring those of you who haven’t been following the development of the game up to speed.

Writing on the Official PlayStation Blog, Neil Druckmann confirmed that fans of the series won't see the game until 2016. At the time, he claimed that the title was more "ambitious than we originally envisioned" as the reason why the team at Naughty Dog made the decision to push the release date.

Right now, the only confirmed specifics that we have to go on is a Spring 2016 release. The first day of Spring in 2016 is March 20th. While nothing is set in stone, we should see the developer confirm a firm release date well before the start of the new year.

With E3 2015 just a few short weeks away we, and many others, are hopeful that the company releases new Uncharted 4 details to hold us over until we get much closer to the game's highly anticipated release.

The company is also expected to do monthly live streams after E3 to give fans a glimpse at the inner workings of one of the most popular video game studios in the world. It's not clear yet if Uncharted 4 will be a part of those streams.
