The Last of Us 2 Demo: Gameplay available to players at Pax East


It has just been revealed that Naughty Dog (developers of the upcoming game The Last of Us 2) will be bringing an hour-long segment of the game to the Boston convention.

Set between 27 February to 1 March, attendees of Pax East will be able to try out a section of the game called "Patrol".

This focuses on the part of the game where Ellie and her girlfriend Dina head out of Jackson to clear out the infected in the surrounding area.
