With just under a month until the game’s release, anticipation is continuing to build forÂThe Last of Us Part II. While the game experienced some unexpected circumstances in the past few monthsfrom a delayto somedevastating story leaks, few would deny thatÂThe Last of Us Part IIis a game that many are looking forward to. As the continuation ofone of the most acclaimed games of all-timeand (likely) one of the PS4’s final exclusives, we only have a few more weeks to wait until the game is finally out, and today gave us a new look at what looks like an intense new chapter for Joel and Ellie.

As previously announced, Sony debuted its latest State of Play broadcast, this time focused specifically around new gameplay footage fromÂThe Last of Us PartÂII.Over the course of the nearly 25-minute presentation, Naughty Dog gave us some new details on the upcoming sequel and what players can expect from its world, while also giving us an extensive look at a brand new gameplay section that hasn’t been shown before. In case you missed it, you can check out the State of Play video below:

Now that we’ve gotten another extended look atÂThe Last of Us Part II, we want to hear from theÂDualShockerscommunity:what was your reaction to the new gameplay footage? Are you looking forward to the game even more? What surprised you about the new demo (aside from a Vita cameo)? What else do you think we will see when the game finally releases? Let us know in the comments below.

As a huge fan of the original game,ÂThe Last of Us Part IIis a game that I’ve both been incredibly looking forward to, but also kind of dreading. Given what we’ve seen of the game so far in previous trailers, we already know that it will definitely be an intense, upsetting experience. But based on the incredible story that Naughty Dog gave us through the original game (and the brand new gameplay footage), I have no doubt thatThe Last of Us Part IIwill be an amazing game in its own right, and one that I hope caps off this generation on a high note.

The Last of Us Part IIwill release exclusively for PS4 on June 24, 2025.
