No one doubted that The Last of Us Part II would have excellent reviews, the hype was too high for the opposite. However, this situation allowed observing how this game compared to other titles released during the year. Whereas this has been the year of games like Half-Life: Alyx and Final Fantasy VII Remake. Whether you like TLOU or not, the position this sequel was in was a bit interesting. Now, everything indicates that they have exceeded expectations and Part II will be filled with awards over the months.

Much of the acclaim seems to be directed at her narrative, being described as violent and intense in a rather emotional way. Considering the details leaked more than a month ago, it will be fascinating to see how the context gives these situations another language. Of course, its gameplay has also been described as an evolution of the tense and memorable system of the original title.
