![]() Sadly that’s not the case, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a fantastic game here, even if it may feel all too familiar for some. It feels like the perfect game for Sony’s PlayStation Plus Premium and Extra service (after you apply that PlayStation Plus discount code ), which would have enticed more subscribers to the service and subsequently encouraged people to check out The Last of Us 2. It doesn’t help that The Last of Us Part 1 is releasing on the back of the PS5 price increase in most countries, making its $70 price tag seem all the more egregious. And that’s why it only gets an honorable mention in our best PS5 games list. ![]() Still, despite the vast improvements to the game’s visual fidelity and some pleasing quality-of-life improvements, it’s too expensive to recommend wholeheartedly. The Last of Us Part 1 is the definitive version of Naughty Dog’s iconic third-person adventure game – there’s no doubt about that. The game was released on PS3 in 2013 and then again on PS4 as a Remastered edition in 2014. Is the game really worth it?Īfter all, this is the third version of The Last of Us. You can argue back and forth whether a game that isn’t even a decade old is worthy of being remade, but it’s the $70 price tag that has been the main target for detractors. We already know that all PS4 games will work on the upcoming PS5, though there’s no word on whether Sony’s next-gen console will get its own enhanced version of The Last of Us 2.The Last of Part 1 shouldn’t be a controversial remake, but sadly it is. The original TLoU was a PlayStation 3 exclusive, and was later remastered for the PS4. Since the game is developed by Naughty Dog, a California-based developer owned by Sony, it should come as no surprise that TLoU2 is exclusive to the PlayStation 4. The Last of Us 2 PS5: is it coming to next-gen? It's also unclear whether Joel will be playable or not, even if only briefly like certain sections of the first Last of Us. Joel will appear in the game at some points, as confirmed by the most recent trailers, and Dina is also accompanying you for at least a small part of the game, but whether we’ll see a full reversal of the original’s player and companion mechanic, or a more solo experience, remains to be seen. This time, Ellie is the player character. There were a few moments you took control of Ellie but it was very much Joel’s game. In the first game, players controlled Joel, while Ellie was an AI-controlled companion, who could help out in fights, but also needed help crossing the platforming puzzles in the game. ![]() The Last of Us 2 pre-order: where can I buy the game? The Collector’s Edition ($169.99) is a big jump up, adding a 12-inch (30cm) statue of game protagonist Ellie playing her guitar, a lithograph art print, a pack of five stickers and six enamel pins, a digital copy of the soundtrack and also a replica of the bracelet worn by Ellie (which you can also see on Dina’s wrist in the E3 2018 trailer above).įinally, the Ellie Edition ($229.99) contains everything already mentioned plus a vinyl record containing music from the game’s soundtrack, a fabric patch of the game’s logo, and a replica of Ellie’s backpack.Īll of the above are physical editions, but there’s also a Digital Deluxe Edition ($69.99) which combines the PS4 theme, six PSN avatars, digital soundtrack and a digital version of the art book, along with the in-game bonuses. The Special Edition ($79.99) adds a steelbook case and a 48-page mini art book, with a dynamic PS4 theme and six PlayStation Network avatars. Pre-ordering the Standard Edition also gets you a PSN Avatar image of Ellie’s tattoo, so you can represent your love of the series on your profile. The Standard Edition ($59.99) comes with just the game disc but offers a full digital version of the game too, as well as in-game bonuses in the form of an ammo capacity upgrade for Ellie’s pistol and a crafting training manual which unlocks extra crafting and upgrade recipes instantly. There are four different versions of The Last of Us Part II, but fortunately they’re fairly easy to tell apart as each edition adds more on top of the bundle before it.
