Sony wants to release a remake of The Last of Us along with the second part on PS5

Much attention was paid to the remake The last of us, which is currently being worked on in Naughty dog… However, Schreier claims that the main goal of the project is to bring the combat system and other gameplay features of the original to the level of the second part in order to release a sequel kit for the PS5.

Some worried that the actors would be called to rewrite lines, however, according to Schreier, the remake team is not going to do this – everything will be left as it is.

One of the key reasons to do a remake in Naughty dog there was a lack of goals for most of the studio – while Neil Druckmann and other leading specialists come up with a concept for the next big project, the rest of the team needs to do something. This “something” was the remake.

In addition, for many in ND it is much easier to work on a more modern version of the first The Last of Us after the difficult development of the sequel, when many ideas were constantly changing and had to adapt to changing leadership teams.

Now the studio, among other things, is working on a multiplayer game in the universe – it looks like it will be a separate release outside of the upcoming The Last of Us: Part I and Part II for PS5. Perhaps, by the way, this is why the sequel to The Last of Us never received any special improvements for the PS5 – ND is working on a native version of the sequel.
