The Last of Us: DLC Will Be Revealed This Week

     Bruce Straley, Co-director of The Last of Us, posted this Tweet on Monday morning:


     So we are finally getting information on the secretive DLC!  We already know that 2 of the 3 DLCs will be for multiplayer, but for the 3rd- the one many gamers are really waiting for is the addition to the single player campaign.
"For the first time ever we’ll be offering single player DLC. The journey and cast of characters in The Last of Us lends itself to thorough narrative exploration and we’ve got more of the story to tell."  -Eric Monacelli, Naughty Dog Community Strategist [ Playstation Blog ]
     What peaks my interest is how Naughty Dog will continue the story without damaging the subtle and controversial ending the game had.  To me it would be wonderful if they covered parts of the story from another character's perspective.  What I mean is like playing the game as Bill.  Think of the options Naughty Dog has to offer by opening up the tragic and beautiful world The Last of Us created through this type of DLC.  It would maintain the impact of the main game while getting a whole different view.

     Naughty Dog has always done well, and I'm sure this DLC will be another outstanding achievement reflecting upon the human condition.
