The Last of Us Release Date Surfaces at EB Games
![]()
The Last of Us, the most recent from Uncharted developer Naughty Dog, has been given a November 9 release date at EB Games Canada. Sony has not confirmed the claim, but this is a great indication we may see the PS3 exclusive survival game in time for the 2012 holiday season.
The Last of Us is described as a character driven tale with survival and action elements. It takes place in a post-apocalyptic United States, exactly where a plague has morphed most of the population into one thing much less than human.
At this point, I would usually roll my eyes and move on. An additional zombie apocalypse, you say? What a novel notion! Nevertheless, the raw storytelling energy in Naughty Dog’s Uncharted series really should be adequate to get everybody excited for their next adventure. They turned a seemingly cliché treasure hunter into a thing remarkable, and there’s no cause to think they won’t do the same with The Final of Us.
If you are not familiar with The Last of Us, check out the most recent screenshots and release trailer to get a really feel for the planet Naughty Dog is making. It promises to be a dark survival story with a healthy dose of button mashing action. Here’s hoping we see more news and a vacation release confirmation in the coming weeks.
