The Last of Us Remastered Info Released
April 9, 2014Playstation has announced the first details in The Last of Us: Remastered that will be released for PS4.
Earlier today, Arne Meyer (community strategist, Naughty Dog) took to the Playstation blog to tell us all about The Last of Us: Remastered and what we can expect with the new release:
Moving our efforts to the PS4 has allowed us to remaster an already phenomenal looking The Last of Us in 1080p with a list of upgrades including higher resolution character models, improved shadows and lighting, upgraded textures, along with even more improvements. We love setting challenging technical hurdles for us when working on each game – and this is no different. We’ve been working hard on The Last of Us Remastered to release a next-gen evolution worthy of the 200+ Game of the Year awards, not to mention the acclaim and expectations of our fans. We will be revealing more detailed information about the upgrades for the PS4 version in the coming months.
In addition to all the technical updates, we’re also including an exclusive director’s commentary for all in-game cinematics featuring Creative Director and Writer, Neil Druckmann; Voice Actor, Troy Baker, who plays Joel; and BAFTA Award winning Voice Actress, Ashley Johnson, who plays Ellie.
We’ve released a ton of additional content since The Last of Us launched in June 2013, including our first ever single player expansion, Left Behind. We’re happy to say that the major content releases will be included with The Last of Us Remastered:
– Left Behind single player expansion
– Abandoned Territories multiplayer map pack
– Reclaimed Territories pack – details will be coming soon on exactly what is included
Whether you are new to The Last of Us or have played it already on the PS3, we hope you are all looking forward to this release. We are!
The write up also included information about pre-order bonuses through the Playstation Store and their favorite retailers. There is no set date for the game yet, but it is scheduled for release this summer.
