Following on from the leaked tip from a Sony employee last month that the award-winning The Last of Us game would be arriving on Sony’s next-generation PlayStation 4 games console later this year.
Sony has this week inadvertently leaked details confirming that it is planning to release a remastered version of The Last of Us game for PS4 consoles.
Details of the Leak
The leaked information was revealed when Sony accidentally posted a banner advertisement for The Last of Us game for PS4 on its own Sony Entertainment Network website in the US. Sony quickly removed the offending banner but not before it could be captured in a screenshot revealing that the price of the new PS4 game will be $59.99. This slip-up has generated a lot of excitement among fans who have been eagerly awaiting an official announcement.
The banner advertisement’s creation suggests that the remastered version is in its final stages of development. This means we shouldn’t have to wait too long before Sony officially confirms a release date for the new remastered version of the awesome The Last of Us game, which is exclusive to Sony’s PlayStation consoles. As more information is released or leaked by Sony, we will keep you updated.
What to Expect from the Remastered Version
The Last of Us, originally released for the PlayStation 3, has been praised for its gripping storyline, complex characters, and stunning visuals. The remastered version for the PS4 is expected to enhance these features even further. Fans can look forward to improved graphics, higher resolution textures, and possibly new content that wasn’t available in the original release. The remastered version is also likely to take advantage of the PS4’s more powerful hardware, offering smoother gameplay and faster load times.
The Last of Us has won numerous awards, including several Game of the Year awards, and has been lauded for its emotional depth and innovative gameplay mechanics. The remastered version is expected to include all previously released downloadable content (DLC), such as the Left Behind expansion, which delves deeper into the backstory of one of the main characters, Ellie.
The anticipation for the remastered version is palpable, as it promises to bring a new level of immersion and detail to an already beloved game. The PS4’s capabilities will likely make the post-apocalyptic world of The Last of Us even more hauntingly beautiful and immersive.
In addition to the graphical enhancements, there is speculation that the remastered version might include new gameplay features or modes. For instance, the multiplayer mode, Factions, could see new maps, weapons, and customization options. This would not only attract new players but also bring back veterans who are looking for a fresh experience.
The Last of Us has had a significant impact on the gaming industry, influencing many subsequent games with its narrative-driven approach and complex character development. The remastered version for the PS4 is expected to set a new standard for what remastered games can achieve, blending nostalgia with cutting-edge technology.
