Uncharted 4 Director to Fans: "Stay Vigilant" About Leaks

Leaks become more common as a game nears its release date, and with Uncharted 4: A Thief's End's launch only two weeks away, creative director Neil Druckmann urges fans to stay vigilant when it comes to spoilers on the internet.

Druckmann tweeted a warning, saying "it'll get harder and harder to control leaks" as we get closer to Uncharted 4's release. He added there are "[b]ig surprises in store" for those who hold off on reading leaked information online.

It seems that retailers in the United Kingdom have broken the street date and started to sell Uncharted 4 early. The game's multiplayer is currently unavailable, but it's likely that early players can make their way through the entire story before the game's official release.

The "[b]ig surprises in store" that Druckmann tweeted about are also likely to be from the story. It was revealed that the fourth Uncharted game will dive into protagonist Nathan Drake's mysterious childhood, which we've only seen glimpses of in Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception.

Uncharted 4 launches for the PS4 on May 10.

In related news, developer Naughty Dog announced that Uncharted 4 has more open areas and 10x the playable space than previous games in the series.
