This is according to Polygon, who spoke with The Last of Us: It's almost exactly a year to the day since The Last of Us 2 was released to a somewhat mixed, albeit overall positive reception. However, some fans may be wondering if the sequel will have multiplayer, and while were not sure if it will be like what was seen in the original game, we can confirm that multiplayer is indeed coming back in some capacity. The Last of Us: Part 2 was given an extended gameplay demo at E3 2018 that showed off a section of its single player story.

All trophies will be earned naturally just from playing.While The Last of Us is, and always will be, a predominantlyВ singleplayer series, the original game's Factions mode proved to be a hit with hardcore fans. The beauty of The Last of Us Remastered Multiplayer is that no boosting is needed. Likewise, as development began on the evolution of our Factions mode from The Last of Us Part I, the vision of the team grew beyond an additional mode that could be included with our enormous single player campaign.djb5f2,411. As weвЂ™ve stated, the single player campaign is far and away the most ambitious project Naughty Dog has ever undertaken. We wanted to address multiplayer in The Last of Us Part II. This mode was instead delayed to beВ released further down the line, but many months on, fans are yet to receive even a trailer.Called 'Factions,' The Last of Us online multiplayer mode aligns you with one of two factions: Hunters or Fireflies (their roles are explained in the single player campaign).

This leaves the glaring question of why fans are having to hunt for job postings to uncover information about Factions. However, almost 10 months later, that's still the closest fans have gotten to a reveal. This had fans very excited at the time, anticipating an upcoming release. Last year, leaked Factions gameplay footage emerged which appeared to show the game in working order. Whether this will be for Factions or something else is still very much a mystery.Aside from job postings, fans have also in the past received hints that the Factions mode is further along than the silence would suggest. The job postings were aimed at a couple of different professions concerning a new standalone multiplayer game, which adds further fuel to the fire of Factions being its own game.В Naughty Dog is also hiring temporary video editors to work on trailers, suggesting the announcement of something is fast approaching.

However, this project is unlikely to impact the development of the Factions mode as this singleplayer project will most likely be worked on by a different team. If The Last of UsВ RemakeВ is to be announced before Factions, it would surely not bode well for the highly requested multiplayer mode.Another rumored upcoming Naughty Dog project is Stray's Cross an all-new AAA sci-fi title. Instead, rumors surrounding a remake of The Last of Us have been circulating, although fans will be hopeful that this is lower down on Naughty Dog's agenda. This upgrade, which allows players to choose between 30 and 60 FPS alongside graphical improvements, released in May this year.That being said, very little info regarding The Last of Us 2'sВ Factions has been leaked since then. Since the launch of the PlayStation 5, Naughty Dog had been working on upgrading The Last of Us 2 for the next generation.

But with no official confirmation, fans are growing anxious waiting for any news from Naughty Dog.The Last of Us 2В is available now on PS4. Last year Neil Druckman said Factions would be worthВ waiting for, which reassured fans at the time and suggested the unconfirmed project would be a Factions equivalent. The identity of the standalone multiplayer project Naughty Dog is working on could either make or break The Last of Us 2 fan's hopes of a Factions mode. The fact that Factions has received less info than other Naughty Dog projects could suggest the game is some way off.If Factions is to be announced this year it will likely be in the build-up to, or on The Last of Us day, which falls on September 26.
