Celebrate Outbreak Day With New Theme Song, PS4 Theme, Avatars and More For ‘The Last of Us Part II’
Today is Outbreak Day, a yearly celebration of the community built up around love for Naughty Dog’s 2013 post-apocalyptic masterpiece The Last of Us.
Each year on September 26, Naughty Dog and Sony put out new merchandise and special offers related to the game and its upcoming sequel and 2018, which marks the 5th anniversary of the event, is a banner year for Outbreak Day goodies.
PS4 owners can download a new The Last of Us Part II Ellie Dynamic Theme and an avatar pack for their console, but only for 24 hours! So you best be quick and snap them up before 27 September. There are also discounts on The Last of Us Remastered and all DLC on PS4 until October 2.
Outside of the console, there’s a nifty deal with Mondo Records for a vinyl record of the OST for the first game and a rather snazzy poster. These are a limited-time release so you only have until 9:00am PT this Saturday, September 29 to get your hands on them.
Naughty Dog is also releasing ‘Cycles’, Gustavo Santaolalla’s theme for The Last of Us Part II that was first heard at Sony’s E3 2018 Showcase. Beyond that, there are wallpapers for your mobile phone, a T-shirt with Ellie’s Tattoo design from The Last of Us Part II and stickers for messaging on IOS platforms.
All of this can be found at the game’s website, where you can look back on previous Outbreak Days.
Here’s hoping we get another glimpse at The Last of Us Part II again soon too.
Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.
The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.
Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers — played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere — can be seen trapped inside.
You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.
There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…
The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
