The game is going to launch for PS4 in North America on March 18, Sony announced today. The game was expected out by the march end after it was included in a slide during an investors briefing for the fiscal year that runs through March 2016. It had been set for release this year, but it was delayed back in March 2015.
Along with the release date, Sony also detailed two physical, limited edition versions of Uncharted 4: the special edition ($80) and Libertalia collector’s edition ($120). You can see the contents of these below, courtesy of the PlayStation Blog.
