How it plays

The Last of Us Part II is set five years after Ellie and Joel's journey across a post-pandemic United States. The two have settled in Jackson, Wyoming, among a community of survivors, despite the constant threat of the infected and of other, more desperate survivors. When a violent event breaks that peace, Ellie sets out on a relentless journey to carry out justice and find closure. The story follows both Ellie and Abby.

The Remastered version adds No Return, a roguelike survival mode built on the game's combat. In each run the player chooses a path through a series of randomised encounters, ending in boss battles, and can unlock different characters with their own gameplay traits.

There are also Lost Levels (early versions of three levels not seen in the original), developer commentary, Guitar Free Play, a Speedrun Mode and unlockable skins. On PC it supports DualSense adaptive triggers and haptic feedback, mouse and keyboard remapping, ultrawide screens, HDR, and DLSS, FSR and XeSS upscaling. Steam lists it as single-player.
