A great surprise gift just fell from Naughty Dog into the hands of the waiting fans-The Last of Us Complete for PS5. It seals both The Last of Us Part I and The Last of Us Part II with all the Remastering and puts them all together within one single stylish box. And yes, it sounds just as it is. Here lies the experience of complete gut-wrenching building of all sagas in that of Joel and Ellie polished for the latest console by Sony.
The announcement hit through Naughty Dog’s official Twitter account, along with a hype trailer (of course) and a link to details. No pre-orders, no waiting; this is now happening. The very best way to get into the whole experience for all of you people out there who missed these games somehow (where have you been?). Part I got the full remake treatment last year on PS5, while Part II’s masterpiece remaster saw the light this year, accompanied by all the extra goodies feature-the lost levels and a roguelike mode to die for.
And the comments section? Nothing. Super suspicious; you would expect such a drop would have blown everybody’s mind. Probably too busy slamming the “purchase” button to tweet. Or perhaps this same-old-no-new-tease-offering-no-3-no-DLC bang has some folks feeling kinda…whelmed.
And it kinda makes sense to throw both games into one pack. Between these two near-masterpieces, you get really what could be the best TV-prestige equivalent cruel, beautiful, and emotionally draining to the finest. Get yourself a PS5 and have never played those games (or want to traumatize yourself all over again)? This is your chance.
What is the latest from Naughty Dog? Speculations are still out there discussing the supposed Part III and its multiplayer spin-off, not to forget that vague sci-fi project they have been dropping hints about. But let Joel and Ellie take another bow for now.
Pro tip, click that link on Naughty Dog’s tweet for details about the price. And perhaps grab some tissues while you’re at it. You know why.
Did I mention the roguelike mode? Because it’s killer fun. Just saying.
Go on and scream at Naughty Dog on Twitter if you want to complain about no PC port. Or don’t. They’re probably just counting your money.
