Naughty Dog's post-apocalyptic survival horror game The Last Of Us comes to the PS4 and brings with it not only a higher resolution, but also some interesting-sounding DLC in the form of Factions.
The Last Of Us: One Night Live Already Sold Out
There will be an official presentation on Naughty Dog's official Twitch channel on Thursday, July 24 at 11:30 a.m. Pacific and 5:30 p.m. Pacific. For those who can't make it, the official Playstation blog talked to Erin Daly, Lead Multiplayer Designer, and Quentin Cobb, Game Designer. Here are some highlights:
What Factions is about:
No New Single Player DLC For The Last Of Us
Daly: "The name Factions came from what we call the "metagame." Instead of just earning XP and ranking up like most multiplayer games, when you start multiplayer you are put in charge of a small group of survivors trying to stay alive and grow their numbers. To make progress you must ally yourself with one of the major factions from the single player game - the Hunters, a rag-tag group of brutal killers, or the Fireflies, a more well-equipped resistance group that is still trying to find a cure for the infection. As you progress, events will occur that put your survivors at risk and require you to complete missions during your multiplayer matches to keep them alive. You must survive for 12 weeks with either the Hunters or Fireflies to beat the metagame."
About Trophies:
Cobb: "Remastered will include all DLC Trophies along with the original game Trophies. No new Trophies were added but 8 of them were changed to be easier to earn."
About previously acquired DLC:
Daly: "[Any] weapons, survival skills, head items you have purchased on PS3 will carry over. You just need to go into your download list on PS4 and re-download them."
