The long-awaited sequel The Last of Us Part II is about to be released. Looking back at all the trailers, most players notice that the game is much larger than before, and the scene changes are more abundant. How big is the scale of The Last of Us Part II? Neil Druckmann, the producer of The Last of Us Part II, mentioned in an interview that the entire game is the most ambitious and longest game ever played by Naughty Dog.

From the perspective of the level, some game levels are very large. It can even be said to be the largest level that Naughty Dog has ever made. There are also some levels that are compact and make people feel nervous. The map size of all levels is for the plot. Neil gives an example of when the player first arrived in Seattle when Ellie felt very lost. The game will open a new level without telling you where the destination is, allowing you to think about it and experience Ellie's feelings.

The lineup of characters in The Last of Us Part II is also larger, and many game elements that have not yet been displayed will make the rapid expansion of the entire world view very reasonable. Sometimes the plot will require you to slow down and experience this vast world, but on the other hand, because the game will take longer to tell the story, it must be further expanded. Neil said that this time Naughty Dog nearly made two games in order to tell the story well.

The Naughty Dog production team basically came up with the idea of making a sequel after the development of The Last of Us in 2013. Intermittently, the Last of Us Part II has actually been produced for 7 years, and it took 4 years to fully invest in development. Neil confirmed in the interview that when the player completes the game, after completing the entire journey, he can turn on the New Game + mode, allowing the player to continue to explore the game while inheriting Ellie's skills and weapon upgrades. It also confirms that The Last of Us Part II does not have any additional content and DLC plan.

Groups of human enemies have also been strengthened in AI. Neil explained that one of the main purposes of enhancing enemy AI is to make the enemy of this game more like flesh and blood by making the enemy smarter. Enemies will communicate with each other like real people. Enemies will exchange appropriate information with each other. You will hear the name of the enemy calling the partner. The game makes players feel not just against an AI-controlled enemy soldier, but against another living human being.

In the new game Last of Us Part II, Ellie's ability has also been improved, her movements are more agile, and new equipment and combat methods have been added. The facial expressions of the characters in the new game have been strengthened, adding realistic effects and bringing a better sense of immersion.

The Last of Us Part II is the other side of Joel and Ellie's story. The previous work is about how their emotions are connected and how Joel can achieve this beloved girl. This work wants to explore where you will go when your love is hurt? Where would you go to find the person responsible for all this? Topics like this.

The Last of Us Part II will be exclusively sold on the PS4 platform on June 19.
