I read this yesterday and was pretty sad. Uncharted 4: A Thief's End has been confirmed to be the last Uncharted game that Naughty Dog will make. However, with a title like A Thief's End, doesn't really surprise me much. Also, this is the reason I like Naughty Dog. They value creativity and they know when to end a story. Unlike other developers, they don't beat a franchise to death. In the past, it was one franchise a generation. Now it seems they are doing one franchise until the story has been told and leave it on a high note.
Now, I wonder, what is the next game that Naughty Dog will work on? I know they hinted at a second Last of Us (which the way they ended it, I really really hope they make a second installment). There's also been rumors of a new Crash Bandicoot. Who knows

PS4's Uncharted 4 will see the end of Nathan Drake
The PS4 title, launching next year, will bring a close to the character's story, Naughty Dog developers have confirmed.
It was already hinted at with the title 'A Thief's End' but now it seems that having had three games to build up the story, Drake is set to swing off into the sunset.
New gameplay footage from Nathan Drake’s final adventure was shown at Sony's E3 conference, revealing the return of a few characters to the series and new mechanics.
Now able to swing using ropes, Drake will also be able to drive various vehicles for the first time ever in franchise history, something we saw for the first time on-screen in the middle of a fictional Madagascan city, while re-introducing his old friend and mentor, Victor Sullivan.
And speaking after the showcase, lead designer Kurt Margenau told GameSpot: "[Druckmann and Bruce Straley], our directors, they have a vision [for Uncharted 4].
"We are fulfilling that vision and it's going to be awesome. It's Nathan Drake's final chapter, so I think fans are going to be happy."
Uncharted 4: A Thief's End co-director Neil Druckmann explained earlier at E3 that the first three games on PS3 were set up for this final instalment for Drake.
It seems Nathan Drake maybe ready for retirement, looking a little longer in the tooth and a whole lot more weathered from Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception.
We could see a passing of the torch event in Uncharted 4 as it seems unlikely that this will prove the end for the overall Uncharted franchise from Naughty Dog.
Uncharted 4 is set for release in Spring 2016 exclusively for PS4 and will look to build on the impressive 21 million copies sold to date for the rest of the series combined, while a movie is also in development.
Naughty Dog have confirmed that every copy of Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection comes with access to Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End multiplayer beta.
