The Last of Us developer, Naughty Dog, has released new official gameplay footage of the PlayStation 5 remake following a number of leaks.
In the ten minute video showcasing the changes from the original and the PlayStation 4 remaster, the developers talk about the process.

Not only can we see new gameplay, but also some behind the scenes footage.
This includes motion capture and the methods the developers were able to use to upgrade the graphics.
The team are using the new immersive qualities of the PlayStation 5 hardware such as haptic feedback and reactive vibration to add to the gameplay.
Naughty Dog has also improved the enemy AI and brought improvements to the stealth gameplay.
The company has been preparing the showcase video to reveal to the public, but it appears that the release was brought forward following a number of leaks.
The video and an article revealing all of the changes can be found on the PlayStation Blog which was released yesterday (July 21).
While the footage has been generally well received, Naughty Dog still seemed disappointed following the announcement.
On Twitter, Samuel Prince, senior editor at Naughty Dog wrote:
“Since this is getting some attention, I just want to say that leaks suck.
“They’re extremely hurtful to the devs who work tirelessly to bring you these wonderful games.
“Public-facing assets take a long time to create, revise, approve, localize, clear legal, ESRB, etc. Be kind!”
He didn’t confirm whether the footage which has been circulated online was real or not.
“I haven’t seen the leak, so I honestly don’t know if it’s authentic,” he said. “Leaks, in general, just suck.”
Vice President of Naughty Dog, Arne Meyer, also repeated the sentiment:
“Leaks really suck. Especially when we’re right on the cusp of an asset drop.
“It’s disheartening and frustrating to teams who have put their hearts into making awesome things for our fans.”
The remake, titled The Last of Us Part 1, will launch exclusively on PS5 on September 2, 2022.
A PC version has also been announced but currently there is no release date
