The grim experience is balanced with moments of fun and intimacy, especially the scenes between Ellie and Dina (played by Shannon Woodward), her girlfriend. This merciless journey is taking players to some dark places, as Ellie is confronted with the emotional fallout of her actions. We will not spoil your fun suffice to say that an unfortunate violent event is setting off Ellie on a revenge crusade. Finally, Joel and Ellie settled down in this town run by Tommy and Maria. The Last of Us Part II is taking place in Jackson, Wyoming, five years after the events from The Last of Us.
The game features many other returning characters, like Joel Miller, played by Troy Baker, his brother Tommy, played by Jeffrey Pierce, or Tommy’s wife Maria, played by Ashley Scott. The actress Ashley Johnson, who is returning after the 2013’s success, plays Ellie incredibly. In this sequel, we discover Ellie as the central character, a gay woman, and the first gay character in a mainstream video game. However, Ellie caught the player’s attention: the teenage rebel girl, sarcastic, conflicted, but also funny, and very likable. For those unfamiliar with the story, Joel is the father figure that transported Ellie across a post-pandemic America.
Back in 2013, Ellie was in a supporting role, Joel being the main character. Naughty Dog, after making history in 2013 with the depiction of a female character – Ellie, is making again the headlines breaking LGBTQ+ barriers featuring a gay character as the main hero of this video game – the returning character Ellie. The Last of Us Part II may be praised for its gameplay, visuals, sound design, but the narrative is probably one of the peak qualities of the game. As result, the bar was set very high for The Last of Us Part II, and we have to say from the very beginning that Naughty Dog comes out with a video game that is at least as good as the previous one, meeting and exceeding our high expectations. It is also the recipient of multiple “Game of the Year” awards and generally regarded as one of the greatest games ever. The Last of Us, published in 2013 for PS for PS4 & PS5, is one of the best-selling video games of all time with over 20 million units worldwide. This was one of the most anticipated video games, after the huge success of the previous game of the series. The Last of Us Part II is an action-adventure survival horror video game developed by Naughty Dog and published on 19 June 2020 by Sony Interactive Entertainment for PlayStation 4.
