Naughty Dog Discusses The Last of Us Remastered Graphics

Naughty Dog co-president Evan Wells says The Last of Us Remastered for the PlayStation 4 will be a visually stunning experience.

In a new interview with Naughty Dog co-president Evan Wells, he revealed that "the graphic fidelity has been turned up to eleven. We've got 1080p, we're pushing the draw distances further, we're creating higher resolution character models, better lighting, better shadows."

Wells also revealed that Naughty Dog is  targeting 60 fps for The Last of Us Remastered, but the game's final frame-rate has not been revealed.

Lastly he said that Naughty Dog started working on The Last of Us Remastered almost immediately after the original PlayStation 3 game was finished.

"We had a lot of people on the forums saying 'can I play this on PlayStation 4?' We've been actually anticipating that, and started working on it pretty much as soon as we finished the PlayStation 3 [version]," he said. "We weren't sure whether it was going to go anywhere, but when we saw the fans clamoring for it we doubled-down, and put more effort behind it."

The Last of Us Remastered is set to launch on PlayStation 4 this summer, with a reported price of $60. In addition to updated graphics, the game will feature previously released single- and multiplayer expansions.
