The disillusionment was great when Naughty Dog's long-awaited The Last of Us: Part II had to be postponed due to the corona crisis. Finally, the release date on May 29 came close and the long wait finally seemed to come to an end.
Initially, Sony and Naughty Dog did not name a new date for the sequel to the success title, but postponed it indefinitely. Now there is a new release date and fortunately it is clear: You don't even have to wait that long.
A statement on the PlayStation Blog says that in view of the "return to normality in the global sales environment" with regard to COVID-19, it is now possible to announce that new release date. This is June 19, 2020. In short: In the end, the delay until the release will be just three weeks compared to the original planning – that should still be bearable for many gamers.
As soon as The Last of Us: Part II is in the stores, work on the highly regarded TV series on the franchise, which is being implemented by HBO, should also start.
