The Last of Us Part 2: Neil Druckmann Co-Wrote Script With Westworld Writer
Druckmann spoke to that "intense" story over the weekend during a Last of Us Part II panel, calling it "complementary" to the first game. He described the first as a story about love, while Part II is a story "about hate." Ellie will also be the star of the game this time around.
The Last of Us Part II was unveiled during the PSX showcase, revealing the return of Joel and Ellie from Naughty Dog's 2013 The Last of Us, which won IGN's Game of the Year.
