The announcement of the game The Last of Us Part 2
Last night, during the PlayStation Expierence 2016 game fair, the announcement of the second part of The Last of Us game took place. The development of the continuation will take the team from Naughty Dog. The same studio is the developer of the first part of the game, as well as the Uncharted series, which tells about the adventures of the thief Nathan Drake.
The announcement took place at the very end of the exhibition, and it never sounded from the scene what kind of game it was. The only thing about which the players were immediately warned: the project is in the stage of very, very early development, that is, we will see the finished product not earlier than in 2018, exclusively for the PlayStation 4.
The trailer raises many questions: first of all, who will be the main acting character in the game. According to the plot of the first part and with the most optimistic calculations, the main character of the game Joel was at least 50 years old. In the trailer, Ellie has already seriously matured, which means that at least five to ten years have passed since the events of the first part. So far no additional information, except that the developers do not give the “game,” and will hardly give it until the spring of 2017.

The last installment of The Last of Us came out in 2013 and immediately became a hit: 1.3 million copies were sold in the first week, and 7 million copies in a year. The project was also reissued for the PlayStation 4 with improved graphics and a new campaign complexity mode .
The game received rave reviews from critics and players, and more than three hundred awards according to various publications and organizations. Among them are the Golden Joystick Awards 2013 (the best original game, the best storytelling), the Good Game Awards 2013 (the best game), the USA Writers Guild Awards 2014 (the best scenario). Mini prequel Left Behind has also been awarded numerous prizes.
Until recently, Sony and Naughty Dog did not give fans any hope of continuing the series, despite the overwhelming success of the original TLoU and Left Behind mini prequel. The rumors of two years ago about the adaptation of the first part of the game also have not yet been confirmed.
