Just got news today that the final installment of the Uncharted series is being pushed back to Spring of 2016. Although the previous releases have come out during the fall holiday, it sounds like Naughty Dog isn't taking any chances on releasing "on time" and sacrificing the quality of the game:

"This game deserves every bit of the attention to detail, precise pacing, and nuanced storytelling Naughty Dog is known for," says Neil Druckmann, the studio's creative director. "So we've made the difficult choice of pushing the game's release date. Giving us a few extra months will make certain that Uncharted 4: A Thief's End not only meets the team's high standards, but the high standards that gamers have come to expect from a Naughty Dog title."
