Reintroducing The Last of Us as an even more modern gaming experience is not only pleasing long-time fans, but an act of corporate synergy as Sony looks to expand the popular IP to different mediums. It’s unclear what the time frame could be for a release date, yet one must assume the timing is not coincidental. The remake news arrives just as Naughty Dog continues to work on a multiplayer project and a long-rumored new installment in the Uncharted franchise. RELATED: HBO's 'The Last of Us' Has Set a Filming Start Date and Location Sony has now brought in several Naughty Dog developers to back the remake post- Part II, making it a priority for all of their studios to focus on well-established IP instead of fresh, original content. However, they never got the appropriate funding, and their plans to remake other popular PlayStation games, including the first Uncharted, never came to fruition and the team was moved to help develop The Last of Us Part II. According to Bloomberg, Sony has been developing the project for quite some time, but it is now a priority for Naughty Dog to push it towards the finish line.įocusing on the frustration from the conglomerate’s smaller studios, Bloomberg reports that Sony originally commissioned the remake in secret around 2018, hiring a small team of developers outside of Naughty Dog to bring the original story to a new generation of gaming. The Last of Us is reportedly getting a remake that will update the game’s visuals and gameplay from 2013, bringing it closer to the look and feel of last year’s sequel, The Last of Us Part II.
