New releases this week | June 10th – June 17th
Very quite on releases for the following 7 days, possibly due to E3 taking all the limelight this week. The Last Of Us keeps the ‘quality over quantity‘ phrase alive though.
With over 30 perfect scores from reviewers around the globe and a metacritic score of an impressive 96/100, The Last Of Us hits the ground running.
This new IP from Naughty Dog, creators of the acclaimed Uncharted series, puts you in the shoes of Joel, a black-marketeer who made a promise to a friend to get a young girl (Elle) to safety during a virus outbreak. The duo trek across a post-apocalyptic United States while fending off infected and the military who are actively tracking them down. The graphics are so realistic you will need to see it to be believe it. Be sure to pick it up when it release worldwide on Friday.
