While hands down the best video game I have ever played, The Last of Us 2 also represents one of the best narratives across any medium. A true masterclass in gameplay, design and above all storytelling. This is a mature game in the literal sense of the word, dealing with some of the deepest, rawest and most brutal emotions we experience as humans. I would recommend this game to truly anyone, first timers to hardcore gamers. I guarantee that anyone with an open mind will relish this game.
