The Last of Us Gamescom Trailers August 15, 2012

A lot of trailers and featurettes have been released for The Last of Us at this year’s Gamescom and I wanted to take the time to show them to you, because the game looks fantastic.  Announced at the Spike Video Game Awards 2011, The Last of Us follows two unlikely companions as they make their way through a post apocalyptic world on the run from the infected.

Take a look for yourselves at this fantastic new trailer straight from Gamescom.

Want to know more about the game’s details?  Well, here are the game’s directors to talk about it.

Finally, they’ve posted two featurettes which show just how the game is being made, in particular, how the actors portraying the in-game characters get their performances across.  First off, here’s a side by side of what goes into the development of one game cinematic.

Finally, here’s the raw performance capture video of one of the game’s cinematics.
