In recent years, video games and movies have become inter-linked sources of entertainment. Today, there are multiple examples of movies or T.V. shows that have been adapted into games or titles that have made their way from the console to the big screens. Most recently, The Witcher was praised for its cinematic adaptation on Netflix.
Similarly, the PlayStation exclusive, Last of Us, is set to get a television show based on Naughty Dog’s 2013 game. Another PlayStation game turned movie is the Assassin’s Creed Movie of 2016. Despite the franchise’s big name, people did not expect the movie to bring in a whopping $240 million at the box office.
