The Uncharted saga is coming to a close, and Sony has now given us a firm date for the beginning of the end. Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End will launch exclusively on the PlayStation 4 March 18^th 2016. This news comes after Sony announced in March that the title would be delayed until Spring 2016, as the “game [became] much more ambitious than we originally envisioned.”

Now that the finish line is in sight, Sony is happy to deliver a few details on the three physical versions of the game that will be available for gamers. The fist, of course, will be your bog standard edition which will give you just game disc. As someone who likes to get right into the game and couldn’t care less about expensive baubles, this is all that I would ever need.

However, for those that don’t mind forking over a bit more money, there are two limited edition versions that will be available at launch. The first is the $79.99 Special Edition, which includes:

Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End Blu-ray Disc
Collectible Steelbook case designed by Alexander “That Kid Who Draws” Iaccarino
48-page hardcover art book by Dark Horse and Naughty Dog
Naughty Dog & Pirate Sigil sticker sheet
Naughty Dog Points: A pack of in-game currency to unlock various multiplayer content

If that’s not enough for you, and you want to make the most of Drake’s final outing on the PlayStation 4, there’s the $119.99 Libertalia Collector’s Edition, which includes everything listing above plus:

A 12″ premium Nathan Drake statue by Gentle Giant
Three multiplayer outfits: Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, Heist Drake, and Desert Drake outfits
Two custom weapon skins: Golden Weapon Skin and Desert Weapon Skin
Henry Avery Sigil ball cap
Madagascar Sidekick outfits

But that’s not all, for those that don’t need to deal with pesky game discs, Sony has some extras for those that prefer to have a digital copy of your games. The $79.99 Digital Deluxe Edition features:

A digital copy of Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End
Uncharted 4 Triple Pack: Includes future access to the first-ever, single-player story add-on for the Uncharted series and two multiplayer packs that will unlock new, rare and legendary multiplayer items
Instant unlock of two multiplayer customization items

If you thought that was it, there are countless other bonus packs, and other “special goodies” that are available depending on where you pre-order your copy of Uncharted 4. With that being said, Uncharted fans will have plenty to choose from to satiate your adventurous side come March 18^th.
