Naughty Dog's "Uncharted 4: A Thief's End" will finally hit the shelves next year.
And while this will be the first time for the gaming franchise to be released in new generation PS4 console, this will also be the first time for it to include a single-player DLC.
And while fans are excitingly waiting for the arrival of the post-apocalyptic game to PS4, Naughty Dog's writer Josh Scherr has gladly shared details on the series' single-player DLC feature and how the success of "Left Behind's" single-player DLC campaign helped making "Uncharted's" version possible.
Talking to Official PlayStation Magazine UK as reported by Powerup Gaming Scherr explained how working on "Left Behind's" single-player DLC "was really just like making a big game on a small scale."
Apparently "Uncharted 4: A Thief's End" single-player campaign version will be better now that Naughty Dog has managed to resolve the issues from "Left Behind's" version.
"Now that we know what's involved in making something that size, hopefully whatever mistakes and mishaps we may have made making Left Behind... we'll be able to avoid those and make some brand new ones!" Scherr concluded.
And while "Uncharted 4: A Thief's End" will not be hitting the shelves until March 18, 2016, Sony announced that there will be a pre-order for the game packed with freebies.
Gamers who are willing to pre-order "Uncharted 4: A Thief's End" prior to its release date will receive special edition package, the official Uncharted website reported.
