Uncharted 4: A Thief's End is getting a big update on PlayStation 4 at some point today, which introduces the game's long-awaited co-op component. Titled Uncharted 4: Survival, the new mode is playable by up to three players - friends or strangers - with the AI filling in for missing players. This means that you can even tackle Survival alone - no PlayStation Plus subscription necessary.

The incoming patch will obviously be free to download, and it apparently weighs in at around 3GB. We'll update this story when it's available.

Will you be giving Survival a shot? Grab your buddies and find some cover in the comments section below.

Update (19:30PM GMT): Uncharted 4 update 1.18 is out now on PlayStation 4.

I have to wait for my wife to finish the campaign , I don't want to ruin anything for her. Dying to play the multiplayer too but the locations could be spoilers.

Call me when they add couch co op, maybe by 2020. Until then my PS3 still has work to do.

@sinalefa savage! Although I think local co-op is in this? Surely has to be.

@get2sammyb I used to have the same issues with UC2 and UC3 as well. Initially it was fine but after a while my PS3 started having issues reading them. So usually, what I had to do was boot up another game first or turn on and let my PS3 run for a few minutes before loading up either one of them. It's strange...

The whole thing is basically trying to avoid grenades. The AI spams them like crazy. I understand they don't want you to camp behind cover but it's pretty ridiculous.
