The Last of Us Part 2 trailer introduces new characters to story

A new trailer for The Last of Us Part II was on show at Paris Games Week today as part of Sony’s media showcase for the PlayStation.

Co-writer Neil Druckmann, following on from his work on the Uncharted series and the previous Last of Us game, said the game would focus on the story of other characters and it was up to players to determine how those stories fit in with that of Joel and Ellie.

“As far as who these characters are, where this takes place, when this takes place, we’re going to leave it up to the fans on that,” he said in a short interview after the trailer premiered.
