The New Story Trailer For ‘The Last of Us Part II’ Shows Ellie’s Brutal Mission of Vengeance [Video]
Yesterday, Naughty Dog not only announced that its hotly-anticipated game The Last of Us Part II had gone gold ahead of its June 19th release, but that a new trailer was on the way today. Well, here it is, and it’s just a teensy bit violent.
In yesterday’s audio teaser, Ellie is heard to say ‘I need to finish this’, and Joel replies ‘there’s a cost’ and in today’s full story trailer we get to see beyond that and delve into a vengeance-fuelled tale that seems to begin not too long after the events of the original game before shifting to the timeline of the older Ellie we’ve seen repeatedly during previous videos and images. What fuels this vengeance mission hopefully remains a mystery for many of you.
It’s been a rocky road to release, with delays, reports of unrest at the company, and an eventual leak of the game’s story by hackers so far in 2020, but demand and excitement for the sequel to the highly-revered 2013 post-apocalyptic PS3 title remain high.
It won’t be long before we find out if The Last of Us Part II can measure up to its iconic predecessor, as it releases on PS4 June 19.
