Also, only a limited few knew that the hit post-apocalyptic zombie game "The Last of Us: Part 2" was actually in the making. Talk about complete low-profile.
Engadget reported that there has yet been no official confirmation regarding "The Last of Us: Part 2"expected release date or any more details for the new game. For now, let's simply take it all in as the teaser trailer debuts the already grown up Ellie filled with the desire for vengeance.
Naughty Dog's "The Last of Us: Part 2" trailer opens with a grown up Ellie strumming a guitar while singing. The words in her "self-composed" song simply are filled with utter desire for vengeance. Joel then enters, gun in hand. Ellie tells Joel, "I'm gonna find, and I'm gonna kill, every last one of them."
Well, Neil Druckmann, "The Last of Us: Part 2" creative director, said that Ellie will be taking over as the game's lead protagonist, in a report by MXDWN. "The Last of Us: Part 2" will be a few years ahead of the previous game installment, since Ellie is now 19 years old with a half-sleeve tattoo on her right arm.
Druckmann pointed out that "The Last of Us: Part 2" should not be considered a sequel. Instead, it is a continuation of the first installment "The Last of Us: Part 2." This is because according to him the "idea of a sequel diminishes the overall experience of the series and its story as a whole." Although he didn't reveal how Ellie would play out as a protagonist, whether she will be like her Father, Joel, Neil did not spill out any further information.
Since the game is still a long way off, stay tuned for more "The Last of Us: Part 2" news and updates as Naughty Dogs promised to release more details, soon. What do you think of Ellie's tattoos, by the way?
