Adult Ellie From 'Last Of Us 2' Leaked?

Another leak has surfaced on the internet that gives a hint on Naughty Dog's sequel to The Last of Us. Sources say the leak came from an 'unknown magazine' that The Last of Us 2 will be released next year. The game is said to be set 5 years after the timeline of the original and will focus on a mature Ellie, around 19 years of age.

Where'd you get it again?

The rumored leak came from a magazine scan. Supporting information says that the article was supposed to be published after E3 2016 but was cancelled because Naughty Dog pulled out The Last of Us from the presentation just right before the event started. In effect, the magazine was also said to be pulled out from publishing, NowLoading reports.

What's in the mag?

The page features interview comments from Neil Druckmann and Brce Straley, director and producer respectively. The information implies that the video game will be set up as another huge scale adventure that plays along the boundaries of sandbox but not being totally free to roam. It is reported that gamers will expect to explore areas the size of cities.

"The gameplay freedom is huge, we want the players to be creative and explore these mechanics as much as possible using anything they have at their disposal in each location."

The mag also talks about the main protagonist, Ellie, who is now a grown woman, 19 years of age. It is reported that she will be challenged with bigger problems compared to the original. Naturally, she would take after Joel who taught her everything. The producer proceeds to say that the game will focus on Ellie's gradual evolution from a teenager to a grit survivor.

You sure about this leak?

First, the article leans a bit more towards the fake end of the spectrum since it is typically not in focus. Second, looking at the grammatical errors of the said 'unknown magazine', it looks like it will not pass as approved for some large scale company such as Naughty Dog. Third, the magazine remains to be 'unnamed'.

On the bright side, Naughty Dog and Sony has confirmed that The Last of Us Remastered will support 4K gameplay on the PS4 Pro.
