Update: If you've been having problems downloading Uncharted 4: A Thief's End via PlayStation Plus, you might want to try one more time. We're now seeing reports that the problem has been fixed, and Push Square editor Sammy Barker corroborates that by successfully redeeming the title via the PlayStation Store webpage.
Original story: Are you having trouble redeeming and downloading the free digital copy of Uncharted 4: A Thief's End which comes with your PlayStation Plus subscription this month? Rest assured, you're not the only one. Twitter and Reddit are running rampant with reports of issues when it comes to trying to download Naughty Dog's fourth entry in the trials and tribulation of Nathan Drake, but it might just be a case of a simple bug fix.
This scribe has managed to successfully redeem Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, but Push Square editor Sammy Barker is having the same issues as you. The message that users are seeing suggests that in-game currency is causing problems with the download, however, we have never actually purchased anything of the sort. As such, we reckon this is a glitch within Sony's PlayStation Store and will be fixed momentarily. We'll be sure to update you as and when the hardware manufacturer comments on the situation.

I was having the problem and actually came here to see if anyone was having the same issue in the playstation plus free games article.
Lo and behold, there's an article on the issue itself.
At least I'm not the only one.
EDIT: I was able to download it now, it was fixed by the looks of it.
I "fixed" it, by going to my library and downloading it from there. Don't know if others figured it out yet, haven't checked to be honest.
Sony are pulling out all the stops.
I got the error message but was able to download it anyway.
Yeah, had this issue earlier, but appears fixed now, and can add to basket and download.
Weird it was caused by in-game currency. Remember the good old days when this was the only in-game currency in Uncharted?
I redeemed via the app it's quicker than booting the console worked fine for me around 1pm
I downloaded around 12.30 and had no problems.
@Matroska "Now where'd you get this my decomposing friend?"
Man, I really loved Drake's Fortune.
cant download
I went just to add it to library but it only had download. So I clicked on download and it asked me f I wanted to download single or multiplayer, I backedout as I didn't want to download it yet. It the gave me the message about being unavailable cos of multiplayer currency bull crap but it's not inmy library, I even got the email saying 'thank you for you purchase'. What the hell can I do now?
All those stops that should never have been there.
Downloads... Hehe... Cute.
@Dman265 Did you get a fix? Pls share if so, I'm facing the same issue. Cheers
Workaround. From the store add U4 to your list, then go to your games catalogue and from the PS+ section you can download it.
cant download as its says i have mulitplayer currency ?
@BiggJazza
Still wont work, not in library under any section, not available to purchase from the store, can't do it from a web browser or the app either.
Me neither, thanks for replying. Poor form really. Never had this problem before in 2 years membership.
Still doesn't work for me, the issue it gives me is because I have multiplayer currency.
Come on, Sony, sort it out
