‘The Last of Us Part II’ hits PlayStation Now on October 5th

Sony is bringing some major games to PlayStation Now this month, and they don’t get much bigger than The Last of Us Part II. The latest entry in Naughty Dog’s don’t-call-them-zombies, post-apocalypse saga arrived in June 2020 and if it weren’t for Hades, it might have swept all of the 2020 game of the year awards. The Last of Us Part II is excellent, but don’t go into it expecting a relaxing day at the beach.

Also hitting PS Now is Fallout 76, a multiplayer entry in Microsoft-owned Bethesda’s Fallout series. The rest of this month’s additions are Final Fantasy VIII Remastered, Desperados III, Amnesia: Collection, Yet Another Zombie Defense and Victor Vran: Overkill Edition.

All of these games will hit PS Now on October 5th. The Last of Us Part II, which you’ll be able to play on PC through the service, will be available to subscribers until January 3rd. 

If you’re not interested in signing up for PS Now but still want to check out TLOU2, the game’s currently on sale on the PlayStation Store. Sony has discounted hundreds of other titles as part of the Blockbuster Games sale, including Returnal, Sackboy: A Big Adventure, Days Gone and God of War.
