The Last of Us Part II Paris Games Week trailer, screens are super dark and brutal

It feels like we’ve been waiting forever for some new game details or media for Naughty Dog’s The Last of Us Part II, and with Paris Games Week now upon us, they decided that now it the time to show off a little progress in the form of an official trailer and screens.

Needless to say, The Last of Us Part II looks ridiculously mature, dark and brutal — and we can’t wait.

See the trailer and screens below. Stop by the PS Blog for the announcement too. Just a note about the trailer, according to Naughty Dog it represents “an all-new in-game cutscene on the latest iteration of the Naughty Dog engine, running on a PlayStation 4 Pro.”

The Last of Us Part II – PGW 2017 Trailer | PS4:

After nearly a year since our announcement that we?re working on The Last of Us Part II, we?re finally ready to reveal a bit more of the game. Above is an all-new in-game cutscene on the latest iteration of the Naughty Dog engine, running on a PlayStation 4 Pro. Enjoy!

At its core, The Last of Us is still very much about Ellie and Joel, but for this reveal, we wanted to showcase several new characters that are integral to their next journey. We?re sure you have many questions after watching this scene. We?re also pretty sure that we?re going to see all sorts of theories about whom these characters are, where and when this scene takes place, and how all of this fits into Ellie and Joel?s next story. For now we?re keeping mum, but we?re excited to see what y?all make of this piece of the puzzle.
