The Last of Us 2 delayed indefinitely due to ‘logistical concerns’

The Last of Us Part II won’t make its May 29 launch date due to logistical concerns, Sony’s PlayStation account announced today in a tweet.

The Last of Us 2 was initially due to release on February 21, 2020 before shifting the release date to May 29, 2020. Sony has yet to announce a new new release date for the game, but said in a tweet that it will update fans as soon as it can.

In a separate tweet, Naughty Dog, the game’s developer, expressed its disappointment with the delay but says the decision is out of its hands.

The Last of Us 2 is expected to be one of the biggest PS4 releases of the year – so we expect this wasn’t a decision Sony Interactive Entertainment, the video game publishing arm of the company, made lightly.
