The leak was published by a Naughty Dog developer, allegedly. Sony acted quickly to remove the pre-release footage from YouTube, but that wasn’t before the video had been downloaded from the site and shared elsewhere. No spoilers will be delineated here, but there are places that are collating the story details, and people are reposting clips in social channels like Reddit and Twitter. If you want to avoid the spoilers, try muting words like “The Last of Us 2,” “Joel,” “Ellie,” etc.
In the statement, the developer said it is saddened by the spoilers. “We know the last few days have been incredibly difficult for you. We feel the same,” said Naughty Dog. “It’s disappointing to see the release and sharing of pre-release footage from development. Do your best to avoid spoilers and we ask that you do not spoil it for others.”
The game was delayed indefinitely, but now we know that The Last of Us Part 2 will launch digitally and physically on June 19. Naughty Dog iterated that it is not long till the game is available for PlayStation players, and that “no matter what you see and hear, the final experience will be worth it.”
