Touted as gaming’s Citizen Kane , Naughty Dog’s The Last of Us takes players to a post-apocalyptic world, 20 years after a pandemic destroys almost the entire human population, leaving cities abandoned to be slowly reclaimed by nture. The player steps into the shoes of Joel, a violent survivor, who is hired to smuggle a 14-year-old girl, Ellie, out of an oppressive military quarantine zone. What seems at first like a cut-and-dried sneak through the country quickly spirals out of control, turning the trip into a brutal fight for survival against infected humans, other groups out for your resources, and the harsh post-apocalyptic environment.
Not only does the game offer intense, deep combat dynamics, it also gives players an intense, emotional story thanks to the Naughty Dog’s cinematic storytelling, made even more real by performance capture and high production values. You will have to sneak, think and, when all else fails, fight your way through the beautiful, abandoned landscape, in rendered in amazingly immersive graphics.
