Considering how long HBO’s Last of Us adaptation could intend to run, Naughty Dog may or may not have a whole lot of time to put a Part 3 together.
Sony has shared a first look at its limited-edition The Last Of Us DualSense controller and confirmed its release for April 10. The controller will cost $84.99 and pre-orders for it start on March 14 on the PlayStation Direct website and participating retailers. As seen in Sony’s promotional images of the controller, the limited DualSense’s design combines a black-and-white matte body with glossy icons of The Last of Us trophies printed across its surface. “Among the trophies, three particular images will immediately stand out for TLOU fans: The firefly, moth, and wolf,” added Naughty Dog’s Neil Druckmann. While the first icon is a clear reference to the Fireflies from TLOU Part 1, the moth and the wolf “represent the intertwining lives and duality between Ellie and Abby in Part 2.”

For completionist The Last of Us fans who have unlocked the game’s platinum, the new limited DualSense controller could pair well with their achievements. It is worth noting that the PC version of TLOU Part 2 Remastered will also have full support for PlayStation controllers. What’s more, players no longer need a PSN account to play PlayStation titles on PC, but Sony will give special rewards to gamers who do. In the case of TLOU Part 2 Remastered, PC players with a PSN account will receive 50 points to unlock bonus features and an Ellie skin featuring Jordan’s Jacket from Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet.
The Last of Us has been around for over a decade now, but its popularity will likely continue to grow thanks to HBO’s show. Fans have also wondered if the long-awaited The Last of Part 3 will become a reality, but according to Neil Druckmann’s recent statement, the series could end with the second game.
