The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered Review

This game is been like a bit rollercoaster and the game had its fair share of controversies When the last part of Us was first released in 2020, critics started gossiping and received it. 

Now, here’s the real talk! Do we really need The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered? Since the original game is available on PS4 and PS5 through backward compatibility. 

There isn’t much new content in The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered, but it offers enough new content to make it worth $10. If you’re new to The Last of Us or a mega-fan, the PS5 remaster is totally awesome!

It is now a great time to experience ‘The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered without all the drama around its release. The Last of Us game is the new remastered version for PS5 and is definitely the way to go. 

On top of improved graphics, it also includes a new rogue-like multiplayer mode called No Return, as well as some cool extras like a director’s commentary and cut gameplay sequences. It’s awesome for me to be able to enjoy the game without any outside distractions.

I experience certain games being tied to special memories and moments in our lives! And the remastered of this game is the best example. The emotionally charged characters build curiosity and breathe new life into the game.  

We find the characters of Joel and Ellie who live in the super chill town of Jackson, Wyoming. They have got a movie theatre and daycare, people fall in and out of love. It’s pretty much the best place to survive the post-apocalypse! 

You can enjoy yourself in the rich narrative that explores themes of love and loss in a world consumed by chaos. What I noticed in this game is that it introduced a host of technical enhancements that bring the environments to unprecedented levels of realism. 

Ellie finds herself embarking on an intense journey to Seattle for some seriously spoiler reasons. It will be bloody in the heading stages that’s for sure. 

In the first stage, Ellie is just heading to a party and you can rush through it. if you’re the curious type, there is much more to discover and you’ll stumble upon carnival games and even a face painter to chat with 

However, it is important to note that these preliminary stages only comprise a small portion of the overall experience. 

Now in the second season, Ellie ends up in the Seattle sewer system and it’s not just a walk in the park. I won’t reveal what happened during the intense moment, but there are obstacles to overcome.

Once she gets there, she crosses paths with Abby from the Washington Liberation Front. They’re trying to protect Seattle from religious cult dudes who keep attacking. One of the best parts is seeing Ellie and Abby’s actions impact each other, and how similar they are.

The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered comes with a $10 upgrade, providing a compelling reason to revisit this modern masterpiece and see it anew.

I have to admit that some parts of Ellie’s journey still feel a little too real and intense for me right now. 

Maybe in the future, I’ll feel ready to dive back in, but for now, I think I need more time to process everything it puts you through. 

Games like these show how profoundly they can impact us for better and for worse!

Enhanced performance on PlayStation 5 allows smooth transitions between intense combat sequences and heart-wrenching narrative moments.

So, when you’re playing The Last of Us and its sequel, you’re mostly doing three things: sneaky shooting, looking around for stuff, and solving some puzzles now and then. It’s kind of like a recipe for the game. 

In The Last of Us, even the little extra things you find and optional moments you come across usually tell a bigger story, even if it’s not totally clear how they connect at first. 

You really get a sense of what happened just by exploring and putting all the pieces together.

The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered is better than the original in many ways.  The new levels are just okay and the graphics didn’t improve much. But overall, this is the version to get if you love The Last of Us.
