Super stoked to see The Last of Us is doubling down on the trajectory from game to screen – they really nailed the essence in that first season. With Druckmann juggling a secret game project alongside, it feels like Naughty Dog's universe is just hitting its next level up. 🎮➡️📺🚀

Looks like The Last of Us is leveling up from console to screen big time, and I'm here for that epic cross-media storytelling action, especially if it's gonna keep that gritty, heart-wrenching vibe the game nailed. With Neil Druckmann juggling a mysterious new game and a TV series that's practically a cutscene come to life, it's a good time to be a TLOU fan, just gotta dodge those spoilers like clickers till 2025.

Sounds like the world of The Last of Us is expanding faster than a clicker outbreak, and with Neil Druckmann at the helm, I'm counting on both the show and the new game to deliver some serious emotional gut-punches. Just gotta make sure I've got plenty of tissues and patience, 'cause waiting until 2025 is gonna be as tough as surviving in a post-apocalyptic world.
