Kanye West has taken to Instagram to share his high praise for Naughty Dog’s critically acclaimed title, The Last of Us Part II. The game, a hallmark of narrative-driven gaming, has once again sparked discussion, this time from one of the world’s most influential entertainers.
In a recent Instagram Story, West wrote, “Last of Us 2 on Survivor + mode got me spending all day on one board. By far the best game ever made so far. This is not a sponsored post.” Accompanying this glowing statement was a brief video clip of his gaming setup, showing his immersion in the punishing difficulty of the Survivor + mode.
Released in 2020 for the PlayStation 4, The Last of Us Part II continues to generate intense debate and acclaim. Developed by Naughty Dog, the game’s gripping tale of revenge, morality, and human connections is set against the backdrop of a post-apocalyptic world.
The Last of Us Part II has achieved remarkable success since its release, including more than 320 Game of the Year awards and commercial milestones such as over ten million units sold by 2022. It was recently remastered for the PS5 while a PC version is also planned to launch later this year.
The Last of Us as a series has come a long way, with its sequel garnering critical and commercial success, and the TV show becoming one of the most popular and critically acclaimed shows by HBO. The second season of the TV show is reportedly planned for this year and will focus on the story and events featured in the second game.
