Last week, a new report appeared stating that the developer Naughty Dog was in the process of restoring the original. The last of us for PlayStation 5. Although this game is one that is in love with the hearts of many, the news was largely greeted by reactions from those who believed that PlayStation should not seek to remake a game that is not so old. Now, new information has emerged that better explains why Naughty Dog is apparently working on this project.
In a new episode of The MinnMax Show, Bloomberg reporter Jason Schreier, who initially revealed this news The last of us remake last week, we talked more about why this is a direction Naughty Dog is going. Schreier said in essence that the reason the studio is remaking the game is that, at the moment, many employees in the studio have nothing else to do. It is said that the developer is currently in pre-production for some of his future projects and, as such, those dealing with Naughty Dog do not have many things, which makes it easier to move on to this remake.
To further explain this, the pre-production process is one in which the initial ideas for video games are usually fully realized. This includes final elements such as the story, characters, art and world that will be found in a particular video game. Until these aspects are fully described, it is difficult for developers to start working on a game that has not even completed its vision. As such, until production for a new game actually begins in full, it’s hard for an entire studio, especially one the size of Naughty Dog, to get all the developers to work on a game that’s still in this creative phase. .
Given this, I imagine that many other fans will be perfectly fine with Naughty Dog looking to rebuild. The last of us. Although it may seem a little too soon for a remake of this kind, the thought of seeing the original game running in the engine that was found in The last of us part II it looks pretty exciting. As for when this project could officially see the light of day, however, we still do not know. Maybe PlayStation and Sony will unveil the official game later in 2021.
