WithÂThe Last of UsÂDay come and gone, many were wondering if we’ve heard all we are going to hear about the infamous zombie game. Specifically, whether there would be an announcement about a new multiplayer mode (similar to the originalTLoU). According to the series creator Neil Druckmann, fans of the series should be patient – notablyÂThe Last of Us 2’s multiplayer mode will “be worth” the wait.As mentioned above, news comes directly from Neil Druckmann who tweeted a final cap-off to the first-everÂTLoUDay. Following a series of Tweets with fun content from developers and fans alike, Druckmann thanked “all the wonderful fans for” the love and support. Notably, he vaguely referenced “that other thing” noting that fans should “be patient. It’ll be worth it.”
While the language is obviously vague, it is hard for anyone to not imagine he is directly talking about and upcoming multiplayer mode forÂTLoU Part 2. Despite the multiplayer being insanely popular on the original game, fans have been speculating an official reveal of the mode would be announced as part of the designated celebration. Druckmann seems to be speaking directly to those fans in the reply.
Naughty Dog has been unusually quiet since early development on what exactly this new mode would be, or ifTLoU Part 2wouldhave multiplayer at all. Despite not launching with a designated mode, Naughty Dog had posted numerous job listings for character customization and in-game stores to bulkup a multiplayer component. As part ofthe spree of leaks, we also got some footage of an early build forÂThe Last of Us Part 2’s multiplayer – though little else has been heard of since then.
The Last of Us Part 2Âis available now, exclusively on PS4. If you haven’t picked up get game yet, you canget it on Amazonto help support DualShockers.
Editor’s Note:ÂThe headline was changed from “The Last of Us Part 2 Multiplayer Mode Confirmed, Coming Soon” to “The Last of Us Part 2 Multiplayer Mode Confirmed in Vague Tweet” to better reflect the story.
