Last Thursday, a demo came out for the Playstation store. Apparently, it was accidentally region locked. Not only has a non-region locked version been added to the US Store, but the UK is getting it's on demo on November 22nd. The game is scheduled to release in the UK on December 7th.

Sony Europe has confirmed that a playable demo of Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, released on the US PSN Store yesterday, will hit UK PS3s on November 22.

European PS3 owners have been disappointed to discover that the US demo of the Naughty Dog's much-anticipated jungle adventure is region locked, meaning those with US PSN accounts on their UK PS3s are unable to play. While Sony's US network regularly gets content ahead of its European equivalents, the company's open attitude to region coding with the PS3 has meant players have previously been able to download content from the US store without issue.

Worry no more though, Sony has since confirmed to IGN that UK PS3 owners only have a couple of weeks left to wait before getting a taste of the game. The 1.2GB demo will be available on the November, still well ahead of the game's December 7 release date.

    Why the need for their 'own' demo if they already added a non-region locked version? I guess just because its still only available in the US store?

      A lot of people don't know you can get content from other stores.
