Naughty Dog's post-apocalyptic masterpiece The Last of Us will be ported to PlayStation 4 this year, a Sony employee has revealed.

Speaking during an interview on Turkish CNN, PlayStation's Eurasian Software Market Manager Sercan Sulun said that a PS4 port would launch this summer.

"There is no information about a new The Last of Us game but I can share this knowledge; as of this summer, The Last of Us will be on the PS4. Both on PSN and physically," Sulun said (translated by IGN).

"The PS4 version will also include the DLC so you will be able to play 'Left Behind' as well."

Absolutely stoked. Top 3 game for me and only played it once before selling my PS3, and didn't play the DLC. Been clamouring to replay this.

I am hoping by "and physically" this is a genuine port rather than streaming.

Well if Tomb raider was anything to go by I got a physical copy almost half of what a brand new game costs at launch, and I think is currently about half price on PSN I think (I could be wrong on that though).

So I doubt you will have to pay full price.

Will it come with any improvements graphically?

Tomb Raider looked great on 360 and PS3; and Definitive Edition literally was a SUBSTANTIAL upgrade graphically. These new consoles open a lot of doors for graphical improvement; so I think it's safe to assume it'll look a LOT better.

Never played the first one but this is one of those titles that certainly put me back into wanting a PS4 but I know the misses will go crazy if I go back to two consoles :p

Welp, looks like I'm waiting for this now :rofl:

 

Have a feeling Sony will include the PS3 version in the annual IGC rotation at E3.

Interesting point...though Tomb Raider showed up on PS+ for PS3 quite quickly after launching on PS4. Who knows, I'd expect Last of Us to do the same, promoting it on PS3 shouldn't have much impact on PS4 sales. I'm the target audience for this re-release. Sold PS3 to help pay for PS4 and because it seemed the efficient thing to do

And lemme guess, they'll try to rip people off by charging $60 for last years game too, wont they?

 

 

If they don't improve on it graphically and charge full RRP then I would agree it would be a bit of a rip. It's a good game, but basic re-releasing it for a new console with no improvements and charging full price would be ######.

I'm certain they will have some graphical improvements. 1080p, higher res textures, maybe enhanced lighting and whatnot. But I fully do not expect it to be anywhere near the quality of NDs first proper next gen title.

If I wasn't starting Uni this year there would be nothing keeping me from buying a PS4. Although my course will have PS4 dev kits to play with :D

Personally i think they need to do a lot more than just improve the graphics to justify full price for a game that'll only be a year old by the time its rerelease is released.

 

 

Digitally, yes. Go physical and you can get a new copy for less atleast 1/3 less.

But $60 is still RRP.   Target/Best Buy/Amazon/Gamestop whoever can choose to drop the price (they get $12 - 15 per copy sold, so they have some wiggle room to drop it to move product anyway).  Actually, Gamestop still has it for $60, $54 used.

Good idea, but doubt they will do that third party launch window offer again. Not for this one. My guess is $50 digital and physical, and of course upgraded graphics, as in 1080p60. If Second Son can do it, then surely Last of Us should be a breeze.

If they improve it like they did with Tomb Raider, this is going to be AWESOME and I will be very glad that I saved myself for that.
