Details About “No Return” Mode Revealed in New Trailer for ‘The Last of Us Part II Remastered’ [Video]
You’re probably wondering what some of the new content is about for The Last of Us Part II Remastered. Sony and Naughty Dog did mention last month the new Lost Levels that were cut from the original game, along with a new roguelike survival mode called “No Return”. Sony has now shared more details on the latter in a new trailer.
According to the official description provided by Sony, “No Return” has you attempting to survive as long as you can in each run, choosing your path through a series of randomized encounters. Each run features different foes and memorable locations from throughout Part II, all of which culminate in tense boss battles.
The mode will also feature gameplay modifiers that can offer new and challenges as you fight to succeed in a host of different encounter types.
Alongside Ellie and Abby, players will be able to unlock several other characters to play as in “No Return”, including never-before-playable characters like Dina, Jesse, Lev, and Tommy. Each character will have their own unique traits, resulting in a variety of playstyles. You’ll also be able to unlock skins to use for them as you progress.
Naughty Dog has also announced that pre-orders for the W.L.F. Edition are now open, which you can order direct from PlayStation.
The Last of Us Part II Remastered arrives January 19, 2024 for PlayStation 5. Users who already own the PlayStation 4 version of The Last of Us Part II can upgrade to The Last of Us Part II Remastered for $10.
Remember back in 2022 when developer Survios had announced that they were teaming up with 20th Century Games to develop a new Alien title? Well seeing as it’s Alien Day, Survios has announced their brand-new VR title, Alien: Rogue Incursion. Coming “Holiday 2024” to the PlayStation VR2, SteamVR, and Quest 3, Rogue Incursion will feature an original story that “fully surrounds players within the terrors of the Alien universe”.
Details on the game are light at the moment, but the official site describes the upcoming title as being “designed by Alien fans for Alien fans”, with Survios aiming to craft a “technically advanced, and frightfully immersive Alien virtual reality game.”
Seeing as Alien: Isolation never got official VR support when it was released, this is obviously a welcome announcement. In the meantime, if you’re keen to experience an Alien game in VR, you can always check out the fan-made mod for Alien: Isolation by Nibre_, which allows both the Steam and Epic Games Store version of Alien: Isolation to be played using the Oculus.
And speaking of Alien: Isolation, as you might expect, it’s got a hefty 80% discount going on at the moment on Steam until May 1. So if you still haven’t grabbed it after all these years, this is as good a time as any.
