The game won year-end accolades, including multiple Game of the Year awards, from several gaming publications, critics, and game award ceremonies. It was praised for its narrative, gameplay, visuals, sound design, characterization, and depiction of female characters. A sequel, The Last ofUs Part II, was released in June 2020. The Last Of Us: Left Behind adds a single-player campaign following Ellie and her best friend Riley. The remastered version of the game was released for the PlayStation 4 in July 2014. It is one of the best-selling video games, selling over 1.3 million units in its first week and 17 million by April 2018. The last of Us: Left Behind is a downloadable content add-on for the game, which adds a new campaign for Ellie and Riley. It has been cited as one of the greatest video games ever made, with many critics calling it the greatest game of all time. The original score was composed and performed by Gustavo Santaolalla, and the game’s soundtrack was composed by John Ottman, with the exception of the opening sequence of the original Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, which was written by Neil Druckmann and composed by Nathan Drake. The multiplayer mode allows up to eight players to engage in cooperative and competitive gameplay.
It features three multiplayer settings: Raid, Supply, and deathmatches, both with both death and death, using a knife and pistol to attack enemies or use a knife to attack or kill them. In the dynamic cover system, the player can crouch behind obstacles to gain a tactical advantage during combat. It also features an artificial intelligence system by which hostile human enemies react to the player, and may take cover or call for assistance, and can take advantage of the player’s assistance when they are distracted, out of ammunition, or taken out of a fight in a fight. The online multiplayer mode is available for both PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 versions, and features three different game types: single player, cooperative, and multiplayer. The single player campaign is played from a third-person perspective, with Joel taking control of Ellie throughout the winter segment, and briefly controls Joel’s daughter Sarah in the opening sequences. In combat, the game features periods without combat, often involving conversation between the characters. The player is able to scavenge limited-use melee weapons, such as pipes and baseball bats, and throw bottles and bricks to distract, stun, or attack enemies. Equipment such as health kits, shivs, and Molotov cocktails can be found or crafted using collected items. Attributes such as the health meter and crafting speed can be upgraded by collecting pills and medicinal plants, Health can be recharged through the use of health kits.
