Hey, guess what’s been making waves online? The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered spilled the beans on psdeals.net, this site that keeps tabs on PlayStation Store stuff. They’ve got this snazzy new cover art with Ellie and Abby front and center, and juicy deets on fresh game modes and tweaks. Check it out on psdeals.net if you’re curious.
So, here’s the lowdown from the store listing, pulling directly from PlayStation’s hush-hush PSN page. The Remastered edition is bringing the goods for PS5 – we’re talking 4K fidelity mode, faster loading times, and the whole shebang with DualSense integration. A trailer spilled the beans on a January 19, 2024 launch date, and you can peep that on Insider Gaming.
Now, onto the fun stuff! No Return is the new kid on the block – a roguelike mode where you pick characters, some totally fresh to the series, and try not to bite the dust in a string of random encounters. Each character’s got their own quirks, and there are boss battles in the mix.
Lost Levels mode lets you time travel a bit, experiencing early-development versions of game bits that got the boot from the original release. And get this – there’s developer commentary if you’re hungry for more behind-the-scenes nuggets. Guitar Free Play is a cool addition, letting you jam on Ellie’s guitar minigame whenever you fancy. Oh, and there’s a bunch of new skins for Ellie, Abby, and your weapons – unlockable in-game, of course.
For those who want to play with more accessibility, the original 2020 game was already pretty considerate, but the remaster spices things up with descriptive audio and speech-to-vibration options. It’s like they’ve thought of everything!
