Another rumor involving the release date of “The Last of Us Part 2” is making headlines on the web and is adding weight to the other speculations that the sequel might come out this year. According to Inverse, the source of the rumor came from Peruvian game retailer LawGamers.
In an attempt to bring hype to “The Last of Us Part 2” and entice people to pre-order the title, the retailer released a promotional image for the game. And located at the bottom left corner of the said image reads: “LANZAMIENTO: OCTUBRE 2019,” which translates to “Launching: October 2019.”
Of course, people should take this information with a grain salt, especially since retailers leaking release dates of games usually end up flat. However, the rumor does go in line with the whispers that “The Last of Us Part 2” is indeed coming out in 2019.
There are several clues hinting at this fact and one of them is the previous tweet of IGN host Alanah Pearce. Pierce previously posted on Twitter asking why “The Last of Us Part 2” isn’t on the list of 2019’s most anticipated titles. After several people told the host that Naughty Dog hasn’t confirmed anything yet, she replied with this:
“Yeah if you can’t find anything official [about ‘The Last of Us Part 2’] then it’s just my brain firmly remembering something and assuming it was public. A genuinely difficult part of games media is remembering what you are and aren’t allowed to know, and when,” Pearce tweeted. The host has since deleted the tweet but it can still be found here.
Another clue hinting at a 2019 release for “The Last of Us Part 2” is the offhand statement of composer Gustavo Santaolalla saying that the game is, in fact, coming “very soon.” With game director Neil Druckmann previously saying in 2017 that development has progressed to 50-60 percent, it’s understandable that many are assuming that the game will be coming out this year.
And lastly, dropping the game in October – specifically at a later date of the month – also leverages the Halloween zeal of the overall market. Obviously, “The Last of Us Part 2” doesn’t need hype to have a stellar sales performance but injecting some marketing on it will not hurt either.
