The colours add a tone to each shot and further captures the post-apocalyptic setting in which evolves the entire the story. The detail in the concept art is also beautifully terrifying. To be able to see and understand how art was turned into a 3D video game environment within this artbook is simply magical. While playing the video game is an experience in itself, this artbook sends chills down your spine as you relive certain unforgettable scenes, whether it’s set in the snowy Wyoming regions or the destroyed Seattle territory. From photorealistic to digital artwork, it is impressive to discover how the game was conceived. The quality of each concept art is also stunning as the developers invited countless artists from around the world to help bring their ideas to life. The glossy paper allows the pictures to be appreciated in all of its rendered greatness, the oversized hardcover format offers a perfect size to display multiple shots without overcrowding each page, and the spine treatment is meticulously produced to avoid issues over the long-term for collectors. – Neil Druckmann | Director of The Last of Us Part II “Instead of trying to find an ‘interesting story’, we needed to unearth a strong emotional core. It also sparingly chronicles the development of the game with some never-before-seen details on omitted ideas while also offering insight on the importance of detail to better capture the desired realism within the game. With a foreword by the art director Erick Pangilinan and a prologue by the game director Neil Druckmann, this deluxe edition hardcover offers an extensive look at various concept art for characters, creatures, and settings as it recounts the whole story of the video game from start to finish. What is The Art of the Last of Us Part II about? It is a collector’s item created in collaboration between Dark Horse Books and the developers at Naughty Dog that presents fans the behind-the-scenes of their artistic conception of the video game The Last of Us Part II, the sequel to The Last of Us, an action-adventure story set in a post-apocalyptic United States of America where a mutated strain of a fungus grows exponentially throughout the world and humanity’s last ray of hope lies in the hands of Joel (a smuggler) and Ellie (a teenage girl with a gift or a burden). On June 19th, 2020, they’ve come out with what was my most anticipated game of the year, The Last of Us Part II, and my excitement for it couldn’t have been any higher as I went on to complete the game clocking in almost 25 hours of gameplay for this critically-acclaimed single-player game and its controversial story. In 2013, when they released their brand-new IP, The Last of Us, they have successfully proven to the world that they were at the top of their game and will always aim to deliver authentic, original, and compelling stories for fans around the world. It is upon playing their first game in that generation of consoles, Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, that the video game developer Naughty Dog became my all-time favourite team as every game they released going forward had a quintessential focus on story-telling with innovation at heart in terms of gameplay mechanics, score immersion, and visual realism that pushed the limits of the console to unimaginable milestones.
