I’ll be honest, all I really want to do is squee my way through this article but I thought you might appreciate something a little more coherent.

*ahem*

After months of speculation and rumours, the news has finally broken – the third installment of Naughty Dog‘s multi-award winning game franchise, will go by the title Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception and is penned for release “late next year”.

Entertainment Weekly broke the news, earlier today with some exciting info about the upcoming game. Naughty Dog have also updated their website with the news and revamped their Uncharted game website as a teaser site for Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception.

UNCHARTED 3: Drake’s Deception features the return of famed fortune hunter Nathan Drake and follows him through a gripping, action-packed storyline that will take you all over the world. In his search for the fabled “Atlantis of the Sands,” Nathan Drake and longtime friend and mentor Victor Sullivan set off on a daring trek into the heart of the Arabian Desert. But when terrible secrets of this lost city are uncovered, their journey becomes a desperate bid for survival that will force him to confront his deepest fears.

Throughout UNCHARTED 3, you’ll be taken to spectacular new locations around the globe that will showcase all of the work we’ve taken on to take our physics, particle and visual effects to a new level.

Competitive and co-op multiplayer will return as a key ingredient to the UNCHARTED 3 package, where all of the new features we have planned will combine with our signature single-player cinematic gameplay to create a unique action-adventure multiplayer experience that can only be found in the UNCHARTED universe.

Oh, and there’s one more thing – UNCHARTED 3: Drake’s Deception fully supports high-resolution Stereoscopic 3D.

And if that isn’t enough for you, a teaser trailer has also been released!

It’s like Christmas has come early!
