The Last of Us 2 release date, trailers, news and rumors
There are only a few months left to wait until we can all finally get our hands on The Last of Us 2 - and we're getting excited.
The ending of The Last of Us was pretty conclusive. But as it turns out, that hasn't stopped developer Naughty Dog from cranking out a sequel in the form of The Last of Us 2 – or, The Last of Us: Part 2 if we're using its proper name.
Given the first game was hailed by players and critics alike as a masterpiece with excellent, emotional storytelling and engaging, realistic characters, we have to admit that the decision to release a follow-up isn't particularly shocking. We'd probably have been more surprised if there wasn't one. And yet, when The Last of Us 2 was first announced, we'd be lying if we said our hearts didn't skip a beat.
The
Last of Us 2 was first announced by Naughty Dog at PlayStation
Experience in 2016 alongside a teaser trailer, but it wasn't until
September 2019 that we were finally told the game's initial release date
of February 2020 during a State of Play livestream. However, Naughty
Dog later announced that the release date has been delayed by a few
months, and we now know we'll be joining Ellie and Joel again in May
2020.
