Previously, Naughty Dog used the term “Outbreak Day” as a reference to the day when the Cordyceps virus reached critical levels, thus laying the groundwork to what is known as one of the best PlayStation titles to date. In June,The Last of Us Part 2topped the chartscoming in on the number one spot on theNPD grouplist which covers US sales closely followed byCall of Duty: Modern WarfareandAnimal Crossing: New Horizons.ThroughoutThe Last of Us Part 2’s release, it saw plenty of set-backs including launch delays due to complications from the COVID-19 pandemic andmajor story leaksthat began to appear online, not to mention thehorrific online abusesome of the cast members of the game received too.
We hope the road will remain a lot smoother these days for Naughty Dog and we also hope that tomorrow we finally get to see something of the much anticipated online mode toThe Last of Us Part 2. Long time fans of the online factions mode to the originalThe Last of Ushave been waiting with bated breath for any news on when the much-desired MP add-on would make its way to Naughty Dog’s newest title as in September last year,fans found outthatThe Last of Us Part 2wouldn’t include amultiplayercomponent but that they are working on releasing it at a later date as it’s own standalone experience so, I hope that the wait is finally over on tomorrow’s The Last of Us Day!
