Now Playing: The Last of Us Part II Remastered Announcement Trailer
No Return, a new roguelike mode, also comes with this version. In it, players can choose from a number of characters, some of whom have never been playable in the series before, as they try to survive as long as they can through a series of randomized encounters. Each character will possess their own unique traits and the mode includes boss battles, too.
Lost Levels mode will let players experience some parts of the game as early-development versions that were later cut from the original release, while new developer commentary can be activated for players looking to add new insights to their experience. Guitar Free Play will allow players to toy with Ellie’s intricate guitar minigame at will. New skins for Ellie, Abby, and weapons can also be unlocked in-game with the remaster.
For players seeking more accessibility options, the original 2020 game already did quite a lot in that regard, but the remaster adds descriptive audio and speech-to-vibration options.
Update (November 17, 2023, 5:00 PM PT): Sony and Naughty Dog have now confirmed the news. You can read the official developer blog post, which includes the same details alongside some additional words from the studio’s Jonathan Dornbush.
