Tonight, during the Sony presentation at E3, The Last Of Us was officially announced as a game for the upcoming year.
This came with many exciting announcements from Jack Tretton, Sony president and CEO.
For those that don’t know about the game yet, The Last of Us focuses on two characters, Joel and Ellie.

The game offers players a unique and special experience unlike that of other games in that we get a detailed look into the lives of each of the characters.
