The Last of Us Part II focuses on the physical, emotional, and mental state expressed through every facet of gameplay. Naughty Dog has completely overhauled their engine, developed new combat mechanics, created new analog stealth systems. Revamping the animation system to fully express Ellie’s desperation, resourcefulness, and agility.
Within broader, more complex, and more detailed environments, the human enemies you’ll encounter are now more threatening and capable, using sophisticated communication and environmental awareness to create intense, more dynamic stealth and head-on combat encounters.
The Last of Us Part II features new and returning characters, brought to life by the latest performance capture techniques and an exceptional cast.
Five years after their dangerous journey across the post-pandemic United States, Ellie and Joel have settled down in Jackson, Wyoming. Living amongst a thriving community of survivors has allowed them peace and stability, despite the constant threat of the infected and other, more desperate survivors. When a violent event disrupts that peace, Ellie embarks on a relentless journey to carry out justice and find closure. As she hunts those responsible one by one, she is confronted with the devastating physical and emotional repercussions of her actions.
A Complex and Emotional Story
Experience the escalating moral conflicts created by Ellie’s relentless pursuit of vengeance. The cycle of violence left in her wake will challenge your notions of right versus wrong, good versus evil, and hero versus villain.
A Beautiful Yet Dangerous World
Set out on Ellie’s journey, taking her from the peaceful mountains and forests of Jackson to the lush, overgrown ruins of greater Seattle. Encounter new survivor groups, unfamiliar and treacherous environments, and terrifying evolutions of the infected. Brought to life by the latest iteration of the Naughty Dog engine, the deadly characters and world are more realistic and meticulously detailed than ever before.
Tense and Desperate Action-Survival Gameplay
New and evolved gameplay systems deliver upon the life-or-death stakes of Ellie’s journey through the hostile world. Feel her desperate struggle for survival through improved features such as high-intensity melee combat, fluid movement, and dynamic stealth.

sorted bySimply get a ps5 and play TLOU part 1, preferably on the hardest difficulty. Day 1 ps3 player, day 1 ps4 player for the remaster. Gaming perfection, masterpiece. Very much looking forward to the remade version providing the original difficulty, suspense, and Joel’s brute force type gameplay is maintained. Probably the only post 16 bit era game I’ve forgotten how many times I’ve finished it. 20-30 times at least. (edited)
The story though is just a absolute dumpster fire.
Whereas users gave it a different score.
Graphically great but story is not as special as people make it out to be. Fans are die hard about this game. Truth is, the First one is a better game and the set the scene beautifully.
The agendas in the 2nd story fit today issues which gave it the high score.
Uncharted, God of war, Assassin's creed, FF, metal gear, Halo, ghost of tsushima star wars, shenmue, Mass effect, half life, witcher, and so on have a better and memorable story.
Anyone telling you to buy this game without playing the First is just a blind fan.
Some people can't seem to grasp that the story in this one is just crap and that is more apparent since it is without the characters or dialogue to carry said crap story. (edited)
What makes it a bad story is the poor writing and awful pacing
I thought it was a massive letdown. The story Was poor regardless of whether it's to your taste or not. It's artificial and simply trying to tick as many boxes as possible. They ripped out everything good about the first game and trashed it.
There are some great cinematics and I liked the upgrading system but I found gameplay very repetitive. Many of the main characters were unlikeable and/or annoying. The only thing I can say in its defence is that everyone's expectations were sky high.
Surprisingly people seem triggered very easily when this game gets any form of criticism. It's opinions, everybody is entitled to theirs. It's meta critic rating is 9. Something and last time I looked user reviews at 5. Something. That should give you a clue - liked by the Hollywood circles type but not by the majority of gamers. Many on this thread wouldn't have you believe it but the proof is in the pudding.
Is this a good deal? OK I suppose. I brought it pristine used for a fiver. Glad I didn't pay any more.
Lmao sorry to burst your bubble but this is very easy to refute - "critic reviews" aka "game journos" are incentivized to out out their review as quick as possible to get more traffic for their website, not to actually complete games. Not only this but they want to maintain priority access to a developer's games so they are also incentivized to put out positive scores. Evidence of this is easily found everywhere
Just shows the disconnect between "game journos" looking for political checkboxes and actual gamers that have actually played the far superior games released on the same year:
- Doom Eternal
- Final Fantasy 7 Remake
You preferred those games and that's cool. But why does that mean the critics and awards must be wrong? The real disconnect between the critic and user scores is that for every critic review you click into you can read a full write-up from someone who's clearly played the whole game and critiqued it accordingly. Look at the majority of the one-liner 0/10 user reviews and it's clear that's not the case.
I’m so glad someone is with me! Tbf, after a few sessions I’m pretty sure I got half way through it then a bit got annoying where something kept attacking me from behind and the controls were so bad I couldn’t be bothered. I found it hugely over rated but I might change my mind if I got stuck in.
It's inferior in every way except gameplay and graphics. And in terms of gameplay, what that means is that they updated it to include the mechanics introduced for MGS2. But the problem is that MGS wasn't designed around those mechanics, such as first person aiming or being able to hop over railings, and it just makes it too easy. You can bypass whole areas just by hopping over a rail and dropping down.
Play the original. Twin Snakes is a curious re-imagination, maybe worth a run through, nothing more
If half the people think the game is awful and half thing it's great, the reality would put it in the middle as mediocre
Agree here. I do definitely prefer the first game but this second game is a must-play, for completeness and continuity of the story IMHO.
It does feel slightly drawn out in places, but it’s an incredible story with huge investment (it’ll be one heck of a film / series).
Bold moves made story wise, that pay off despite the gut-punch.
Getting damn near time for a second play through.
If you go back to my quote I specifically said "game journos" are out of touch with actual gamers. I disregard that score entirely
Instead I make my decision whether to buy a game on what actual gamers say as well as a few trusty reviewers like Act Man, ACG, Angry Joe.. that actually take their time to play the game instead of rushing and don't kowtow to developers to get privileged access. Angry Joe took more than a month to get Elden Ring review out for example

An absolute must play.
You are
You might want to reread his post again.
Or simply people that had a different opinion of the game to you? Meta scores can be boosted just as easily as bombed. I don't know why it's so difficult to accept others have genuine differing opinions to their own.
A user score that actually takes into account ownership of the game. 4.7/5 = 94/100 - almost exactly the same as the Metacritic score. And still people choose to believe the review-bombed user scores. (edited)
It's so crap you've played it 3 times and put 50+ hours into it? you've got too much time on your hands!
I strongly encourage everyone to give this a try. If anyone is on the fence given the very vocal critics of this game please keep in mind that this game was review bombed on the day of it's release. That meant people gave bad reviews based on what they heard and hadn't even had the chance to play it. If you are unsure please please give it a go.
The story was beautiful - really liked the way they did it and really challenges your perception of the standard these guys are good, those guys are bad, which is invariably the the case in the gaming and movie world.
One of the few games where I got quite emotionally invested in the characters. Highly recommended.
