Last Of Us Part 2 Multiplayer Mod Shut Down By Sony
Kotaku • • technology
Key Points:
- Nearly three years after Naughty Dog canceled its planned Last of Us Online multiplayer game, fan modders led by Speclizer were developing a multiplayer mod for The Last of Us Part II, gaining significant attention online.
- Sony sent a letter to the modders requesting that the multiplayer mod not be released, effectively halting the project despite its progress and popularity.
- Speculation suggests Sony's intervention may be linked to the mod's access being placed behind a Patreon subscription, which could involve monetization issues.
- The original Last of Us Factions multiplayer mode remains playable on the PS4 remaster but was excluded from the PS5 Part I remake, and with official multiplayer projects canceled and fan mods blocked, the future of Last of Us multiplayer appears uncertain.
