The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered leak rumor

The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered Rumors Brew After Mention on Devā€™s LinkedIn

More evidence suggesting the existence of The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered has appeared on a Naughty Dog developerā€™s LinkedIn page.

The mention, spotted by VGC, comes from lead outsource artist Mark Pajarillo, whose most recent stint at Naughty Dog started in 2021. Pajarilloā€™s resume includes some impressive work, but thatā€™s not what weā€™re here for today. Unfortunately for him, his most recent tasks at Naughty Dog spoil the companyā€™s plans. The first bullet point on his ā€œExperienceā€ section says he is, ā€œResponsible for overseeing the production of all outsourced environment art assets, weapons and interactive props for two iconic titles The Last of Us: Part One and The Last of Us 2 Remastered.ā€ As of the time of this storyā€™s publication, you can still find the mention on Pajarillo page, but we grabbed a screenshot of the information just in case it mysteriously disappears.

Pajarilloā€™s LinkedIn post about The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered should be exciting for Naughty Dog fans. However, itā€™s not the first time weā€™ve heard about a re-release for the developerā€™s post-apocalyptic and highly controversial sequel. In July, series composer Gustavo Santaolalla let it slip that new versions of The Last of Us Part 2 were on the way. In fact, he went as far as to tease some of the new features that the remaster will bring: ā€œIn the new editions you can make me play certain themes and well, I canā€™t tell you anything else.ā€

Naughty Dog, obviously, has not yet officially revealed the existence of The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered. With so much information already out there, though, we probably wonā€™t have to wait too long before the company shares its plans. Itā€™ll be nice to hear about what the team is cooking up, especially considering its long-awaited multiplayer project is said to be on the back burner. Weā€™re also still hoping to hear about another single-player release, though, again, nothing official has come out about that yet. When Naughty Dog does have more to share about whatā€™s next, you can be sure to read about it here.
