Powerful, provocative storytelling, Fiercely reactive combat drenched in tension, Ingenious level design grounded in a breathtakingly realised universe
A narrative so ambitious it occasionally loses focus
Naughty Dog's PS4 swansong is an astonishing, absurdly ambitious epic that goes far and beyond what we could have imagined for a sequel to an all-time classic...

The Last of Us, Part II outshines the original in practically every way. The game takes level design, combat, stealth, AI and interactive narrative and uses each element to elevate the other.Unpredictable, intelligent and self-aware, this game seems to pr...

Combat more fluid with more elements, Pockets of exploration, with plenty to collect, More upgrade options
Wish we could explore more
The Last of Us 2 doesn't seem to be simply a rehash of its predecessor. Instead it elevates the original formula, adding some small but vital features, while keeping the elements that made us fall in love with the original...
A deep story that builds upon the original, Ellie's story and the tales of those around her are all touching and nuanced, Combat is viciously satisfying, Sets a new benchmark for diverse representation in gaming blockbusters,
Small parts of campaign could have been paced more gracefully, Certain villains could have benefitted from further development,
From this chapter alone, The Last of Us 2 is an accomplished sequel in every regard. It feels marvellous to play, and doubles down on the thematic elements that helped the original shine. Ellie is a stunning, nuanced lead who exhibits far more emotional d...
Abstract: I've rewritten this sentence five times at this point. When I first got into this gig of sharing my thoughts on video games, I was told to never start a review by discussing the actual writing process. And yet I can't think of anything else. I just finish...
