the last of us part II

Naughty Dog and Sony have released the latest in their video series detailing aspects of their upcoming game, The Last Of Us Part II.

The video above has commentary from the development team on just how expanded the physical space of the game is. They also detail how the expansion has raised the stakes of protecting the innocence of the safe settlement where Ellie resides. In contrast to the hopelessness of the first game’s setting, you see decorative lights everywhere in this town along with the sounds of children laughing. It’s an unsettling feeling to know the peace of the game in these moments won’t last.

Luckily you don’t have to wait much longer to experience it for yourself. The Last Of Us Part II launches exclusively on PlayStation 4 in a few days (June 19, 2020). Pre-orders of the physical game are selling out everywhere.
