Pricing and Details for Uncharted 4: A Thief's End Triple Pack DLC

A PlayStation Store listing in September 2015 revealed the pricing for the standalone Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End Triple Pack. The DLC bundle was priced at $24.99 when purchased separately from the main game.

For players planning to buy the game digitally, Sony also offered the Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End Digital Deluxe Edition for $79.99. This version bundled the full digital game with the Triple Pack. Considering new PlayStation 4 games typically launched at $59.99, the Digital Deluxe Edition offered a small discount of around $5 compared to buying the game and the DLC pack individually.

Triple Pack Contents

The main draw of the Triple Pack was its inclusion of the first-ever single-player story expansion in the Uncharted series. While Naughty Dog had previously released the critically acclaimed story DLC Left Behind for The Last of Us, this was a new venture for the Uncharted franchise, creating significant anticipation for a post-launch narrative chapter.

In addition to the story content, the bundle included two multiplayer packs. These packs were set to unlock new, rare, and legendary items for use in the game’s online modes. This content was designed to give players who purchased the pack a head start on customization and in-game assets for the multiplayer component.

Availability Across Editions

An important clarification for collectors and fans of physical media was that the Triple Pack was not included in the premium physical versions of the game. Neither the Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End Special Edition nor the more expensive Libertalia Collector’s Edition contained the DLC bundle. This meant that anyone who purchased these physical editions would still need to buy the Triple Pack separately from the PlayStation Store if they wanted the story expansion and multiplayer items.

This decision highlighted a common trend at the time, where season passes and major digital add-ons were sometimes kept separate from even the highest-tier physical collector’s editions, primarily being bundled with digital deluxe versions instead.

Release Context

Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End was scheduled to be released exclusively for the PlayStation 4 on March 18, 2016. As the next major title from Naughty Dog and the conclusion to Nathan Drake’s saga, it was one of the most anticipated games for the console. The early announcement of a comprehensive DLC plan signaled a strong commitment to supporting the game with both single-player and multiplayer content long after its initial launch.
