The Last of Us Part II Remastered Preview - A Hands-On Breakdown Of The Remaster's No Return Roguelite Mode - Game Informer

The Last of Us Part II Remastered Preview - A Hands-On Breakdown Of The Remaster's No Return Roguelite Mode - Game Informer
Following in the footsteps of its predecessor, The Last of Us Part II is getting the big remaster treatment in January, over three years after it was released for PlayStation 4. This updated version leverages the PlayStation 5ās hardware with graphical bells and whistles like native 4K resolution, improved textures, and unlocked framerate. It also adds new interactive goodies, such as developer commentary and previously unplayable lost levels. But the centerpiece of the packageās new offerings is a new mode called No Return.
In this new roguelite adventure, players choose from one of 10 playable characters, from main stars like Ellie, Abby, and Joel to previously unplayable faces like Tommy, Dina, and Lev, to battle a randomized series of combat encounters. I traveled to Sony Interactive Entertainmentās office in San Mateo, California, to play several rounds of No Return and speak to the director of The Last of Us Part II Remastered, Matthew Gallant, to learn how and why Naughty Dog implemented this surprising addition.
My initial assumption was that No Return was an idea intended for the original release of The Last of Us Part II that didnāt make the cut. However, Gallant states the mode was conceived after Naughty Dog decided to update the sequel. āWeāre like, okay, we knew we were going to be doing this next-gen upgrade and offering the PS5 improvements and the fidelity and the performance mode, haptics, and all that really great stuff,ā says Gallant. āThat was for sure going to be in The Last of Us Part II Remastered, but then we were thinking, āWhat else would be really great? What would surprise people, delight people, give them something to make this a really robust offering?āā

Naughty Dog wanted something that took advantage of the gameās exceptional combat that had the same high stakes as The Last of Us Part IIās Grounded difficulty, in which players must restart the entire game if they die just once. It also wanted to challenge players to constantly change their tactics and behaviors; Gallant believes many players settled into their chosen playstyles and loadouts once they got deep into the story campaign. The run-based, randomized blueprint of the roguelite became the clear answer. āWe thought that this roguelike mode [would] be a really great way to surprise players, get them thinking on their feet again, throw them into situations where they might be uncomfortable having to react or to plan on the fly,ā says Gallant.
Upon starting a new run, I choose one of two available characters: Ellie or Abby. Each character has a playstyle and specialized traits. Ellie is classified as āBalanced,ā meaning sheās well-rounded, while her three traits are gaining 50 percent more supplements, the ability to craft Molotovs (other characters must unlock this recipe), and two upgrade branches. Abby is a Brawler, meaning she hits harder, and her traits include a health regen that restores HP each time she performs a melee attack. Dina excels at crafting, based on how sheās able to repair the WLF radio in the story. Lev, who I unlock later, is stealth-focused, so heās automatically equipped with his powerful and silent bow. His sister Yaraās trait allows Lev to accompany her as an AI companion at the expense of starting with only a basic firearm, meaning her upgrade path is longer by default.Ā
I choose Ellie, and my run begins in the hideaway. This HQ takes different forms location-wise and has a workbench to upgrade weapons and a trading post to purchase new guns and tools from a randomized selection, which changes upon each visit. If youāre unhappy with what the trading post currently offers, you can reroll the selection by spending a small amount of currency. I begin with a pistol, a knife, and a couple of health packs. A corkboard displays the current run, a branching web of levels represented by Polaroid photographs that display any stipulations.
The first levelās match is Assault, which tasks me with defeating three waves of enemies. I can go loud, but I choose to pick them off quietly, my preferred tactic in the story campaign. Iām reminded of how good the combat feels after being away from it for three years. The action is brutal, and I find myself wincing all over again at the sickening sound effects as I pierce throats with my knife or cave in someoneās skull with a bat. And yes, human enemies still scream out the names of their fallen comrades (āNo! Mike!ā) in agony upon discovering my handiwork.Ā
The Last of Us Part IIās unsettlingly grounded depiction of violence is juxtaposed by No Returnās more video game-y elements. Abbyās health regen trait means that health symbols explode out of enemies when she strikes them. Level modifiers can be goofy, such as one that makes all enemies invisible, detectable only by using listen mode, or by shining your flashlight to cast their shadows. Gallant, who worked on Part IIās combat in the original game, says Naughty Dog always valued keeping things grounded when it came to the series combat, but No Returnās non-canonical nature presented the opportunity for them to cut loose and get wild.Ā
āWe know our combat mechanics are really fun, we know our gameplay is really fun, [and weāre] trying to give that its own space to be fun and not quite as heavy as the main story,ā says Gallant.Ā
Between killing enemies, which range from human factions such as the WLF, Seraphites, and Rattlers to various types of infected, I scour the zones for crafting ingredients. Resource chests, which are highlighted with an indicator and appear in different places throughout a level, offer larger rewards for those brave enough to reach them.Ā
After working my way through the web of zones, I eventually reach the endpoint: a boss battle. Iām pitted against a giant Bloater (along with a few Clickers), and, to my embarrassment, Iām killed after only a few minutes. Unfortunately, I didnāt get a chance to exact my revenge, though it wouldnāt be a guarantee that I could. Other bosses could appear instead, such as a Seraphite Elite or a Rattler Captain, which are new encounters not seen in the campaign.Ā
My death means having to start a whole new run. Itās disheartening, but at least I know my path wonāt unfold the same as before. Levels occasionally have mods such as adding a thick fog that makes it harder to spot enemies (and, in turn, concealing you better) or causing hazardous pustules of spores to rain from the sky. Sometimes, tripwires will be placed all over the arena. Some levels provide an AI companion to lend a hand. Using Ellie, I play one mission that pairs me with Dina for some tag team play. Other mission types include Hunted, which throws a never-ending barrage of enemies at players with the goal of surviving until the time limit expires. Certain levels have their nature obscured and labeled as mystery zones, meaning you have no idea what youāll get until you play them.Ā
āIf you donāt make it out of the situationā¦knowing that the gameās going [to] be just rolling this entirely new random run at you, itās going [to] be rolling all these new challenges, new combinations of stuff that you wouldnāt have expected,ā says Gallant. āSo [it] just makes coming back to the combat and running into new situations and new combinations just really exciting and really fun.āĀ
A list of challenges provides additional objectives, and completing these unlocks new characters, outfits, mods, weapons, recipes, and more. For example, I unlock Lev by completing two levels as Abby. I also unlock Gambits, a feature that introduces a riskier set of challenges once per encounter for much greater rewards. Naughty Dog has ensured that No Return is regularly evolving and expanding the more time players put into it, which helps keep it fresh for the long haul.Ā
A multitude of difficulty options means No Return can be as easy or hard as players make it. A Custom Run option even allows players to tailor their runs by choosing what mods, perks, and match types appear. Gallant believes that this flexibility in how players can mold No Return, along with the opportunity to play as fan-favorite characters, most of which were not playable before, offers enticing hooks to draw in fans who donāt traditionally play roguelites.Ā
As a fan of The Last of Us Part II and roguelites in general, No Return is a fun blend of the two ideas that feels like a better fit than I expected. The evolving challenge, fun mods, and the tension of losing an entire run due to one mistake squeeze more juice out of the already enjoyable combat. Most of all, it offers an entertaining and substantial dessert to the meaty main course of the campaign (which Gallant recommends playing before jumping into No Return). Iām not sure if Iām ready to endure The Last of Us Part IIās emotionally taxing narrative again, so Iām glad No Return lets me enjoy the gameplay side of things without that stress.Ā
The Last of Us Part II Remastered launches on January 19 for PlayStation 5.

a little bit of post-game hc rambling about selesās behavior oops
going to live with zelos, she obviously would want to try and work on her impulsive habits. lashing out, jumping to conclusions, an overall aggressive stance on... well, everything. itās something sheād always hated about herself, and after zelos returns and invites her to live with him, she saw it as a second chance. she could finally have her brother back-- not the chosen one. so sheād act like it, even if it meant taking time to unlearn bad habits.
but she lived in near-isolation for at least a decade. even the people she did see treated her as a burden, or as an obligation. when they looked at her, they saw her mother, the one who killed mylene wilder, or her father, the chosen who had an affair with an elf and ended up killing himself. they didnāt look at seles and see seles.
naturally, she developed nervous habits. paranoia of looking anyone in the eye. she believed anyone who saw her was looking at her as though she shouldāve been executed along with her mother. as though her presence was one that everyone was conspiring to get rid of. so when she moved in with zelos, she rarely went out without tokunaga. she rarely went out with zelos in general, the pressure dealt by her paranoia weighing more when people saw her, the half-elf bastard child of a murderer, with her brother, the chosen they all revered.
it wasnāt because she didnāt want to take walks with him, or go places with him. that was all sheād wanted since even before she met him. she wanted to be his sister. but her anxiety got so bad that she couldnāt take even one person staring without feeling like sheād break down.
itād eventually ease up, the more she went out. no one would force her; martel forbid zelos do anything to further hurt seles. sheād force herself, though. just because she wants to get better. she wants to get over it. she wants to be able to have fun with her brother without feeling like she might have a breakdown halfway through a walk.
