Naughty Dog and Sony revealed today that, thanks to the worldwide problem that is the coronavirus, it’s delaying one of 2020’s most anticipated games, The Last of Us Part II. It’s gone from a release date of May 29 to TBD.
The game development studio made a statement on Twitter stating that “due to logistics beyond our control,” it can’t launch the game. It added, “We’re hoping that this won’t be a long delay, and we’ll update you as soon as we have new information to share.” Sony corroborated the delay and explicitly blamed the coronavirus for the problem, saying “the global crisis is preventing us from providing the launch experience our players deserve.”
