These leaks arrive shortly after the upcoming remake has gone gold, and simply forward of its September 2 PlayStation 5 launch date.
The Final Of Us Half I isn’t the primary time Naughty Canine and Sony have revisited the PlayStation 3 megahit. As you could know, the PlayStation-exclusive survival horror appears to be competing with Resident Evil 4 and Skyrim for the title of “video games we’ll by no means cease fucking seeing.” In 2014 it acquired its first remaster within the type of The Final Of Us Remastered for PlayStation 4. This “new” model has been, based on no less than one trailer, “rebuilt from the bottom up for PlayStation 5,” and options some new gameplay tweaks to deliver it as much as par with 2020’s standard however controversial sequel. It additionally options prettier graphics, if that floats your boat.
Due to leaks that began popping up on Twitter and YouTube yesterday, we’re getting one other preview of the visible modifications. In a video titled “The Final of Us Half I – Leaked First PS5 Gameplay Clip,” a vital, spoilery second within the remake’s opening is offered for all of the world to see, new graphics and all the pieces.
Twitter account Naughty Canine Central additionally shared some screenshots of the remake, with direct comparisons to the unique. And whereas nobody’s going to disclaim these do look prettier, a fast look on the tweet’s feedback reveals the tenor of among the sentiment surrounding this newest remake challenge.
“Yeah, no, that is OUT OF LINE!! Particularly for naughty canine. I’m NOT paying 70 bucks on a easy graphic enhancement with NO MULTIPLAYER” learn one reply. “Easy graphic enhancement” is definitely a gross oversimplification of the actual labor going into this challenge, however the remake is certainly a refresh of a nine-year-old sport with out its authentic multiplayer, and Sony is charging a full 70 bucks for it. There was pushback from Naughty Canine towards describing it as a “money seize,” but it surely’s simple to grasp people feeling underwhelmed concerning the challenge.
Folks have by no means stopped obsessing over the modifications George Lucas made to the unique Star Wars motion pictures, if for no different cause than it kind of ruins the “second in time” that these motion pictures inhabited within the ‘70s and ‘80s. I really feel the identical about The Final Of Us. It was a cool sufficient PS3 journey and a pleasant technique to wrap that technology up. A sequel felt considerably applicable, however I now really feel just like the “second in time” of the unique is now spoiled a bit due to this unnecessary-feeling remake making an attempt to make itself related.
