Seven years after the release of The Last of Us and following several delays, one of the most anticipated titles in recent gaming history has finally set a firm June 19, 2020 launch date. The Last of Us (TLOU) 2013 was a defining game from developers Naughty Dog, and arguably the most impressive title released on PS3. It was re-released in mid-2014 on PS4 as a remastered edition. Millions of gamers around the world have been waiting for the sequel, The Last of Us Part 2 (TLOU2) for years, waiting to continue the adventures of protagonists Ellie and Joel in a post-apocalyptic world infested with fungal zombies and outlaws.
If you’re in the market for an all-round monitor for gaming and PC usage and have an interest in TLOU2, we have a few hints and tips for you to consider. First off, TLOU2 differs greatly from previous major 2020 release Doom Eternal in that there’s really only one kind of monitor you should consider. Big, beautiful, and high res. TLOU2 isn’t a reflex game so much as it’s a cinematic experience. There’s action, but it’s very calculated, slower paced, and stealthy. In addition, expect tons of gorgeous landscapes and extended cutscenes, plus non-action segments that involve environmental exploration and puzzles.
All of these factors point to a monitor or display that emphasizes resolution, clarity, brightness, contrast, and color fidelity over sheer speed and framerate.
