The Last of Us was released in 2013, which means that the game is now going to be a decade old. Do you feel old yet? Maybe not. This is because the game has this charm in itself that makes the game an evergreen masterpiece that can be played at any period.

But what is even more surprising is that the developers of the game at Naughty Dogs seem to have taken a pledge to never let the game go outdated. This is also why, every few years or so, fans get news regarding the refurbishing and rebuilding of the game, giving a brand-new chance for players to experience that post-apocalyptic magic once more to fans.

Thus, a multiplayer spin-off is not a huge deal from a development standpoint. However, it is surely a huge upgrade for fans of the series who can now play the game with their friends and embrace the post-apocalyptic world with them.

But talking about the recently released artwork for the game, it seems that the team might be adding a huge super yacht level for players to get the eerie vibe that the original had, along with a vast area, reminiscent of the old world scattered all around.

Another artwork was released a few months back

Back in June 2022, Naughty Dogs announced this multiplayer spin-off with artwork that looked a lot like the second installment of the ‘Last of Us’ franchise. With playable characters standing on a balcony and shooting at some other characters engaged in combat below.

This is also an homage to the actual game that has always emphasized saving ammo and making way for close combat rather than long-range combat, which can waste ammo in a world that has a lot of shortage for the same.
