The Last of Us is now a very popular franchise, even more so than it was previously, all thanks to the recently ended HBO series. This franchise has no intention of stopping either. Season 2 of the series is on its way, and developer Naughty Dog is giving the finishing touches to the upcoming multiplayer-focused The Last of Us Factions.

And recently, some really trustworthy sources have revealed a bunch of new information on this upcoming game.

Everything fans should know about the upcoming “The Last of Us” multiplayer game

The biggest fact about this game is that it would indeed be a multiplayer-focused game, but it would have a very unique storyline. It would be interesting to see how Naughty Dog adds a story to this game.

It is also being said that it will be as ambitious as the mainline games in this series. This game would also introduce new characters to this franchise, which means there is a chance of seeing those characters in the upcoming season of the series or the next story-based game.

Players would also be able to explore a bunch of new locations. Maybe it would be based in more distant locations than the first or second game. Sources suggest that this game’s leaked concept art suggests that this location would be somewhere on the West Coast of the USA. Most hints point to San Francisco.

One thing that everyone knows for a fact is that this new game would also be released for PC and probably PS4 too. This makes sense given the fact that multiplayer games gain more traction when they release on more platforms. This ensures that they can reach more people.

One must consider the fact that not everyone has a PlayStation 5 as of yet.

Would the story be connected to mainline games?

One question that no one has even asked as of now is if this game will have any connection to the stories of the previous two games. Fans are left wondering if anyone in this new game’s story would even mutter the names Joel, Ellie, or even Abbie.

It seems all these answers will come soon enough, during PlayStation’s huge showcase coming sometime in April or May.
