The Last of Us Part II Hands-on Demo at PAX East 2020:
“Not only did Ellie and Joel’s journey begin in Boston, but PAX East also has special meaning for us: it was where we gave you the first-ever opportunity to go hands-on with The Last of Us back in 2013,” revealed Naughty Dog. PAX East takes place later this month on February 27 – March 1 in Boston.
PAX East attendees will get the opportunity to play The Last of Us Part II’s “Patrol” game mode featuring an early area of the game where Ellie and Dina must venture out of Jackson into the surrounding areas to clear out infected. The demo will span an hour of gameplay and provide just a small glimpse into what awaits you in the full game.
Attendees will have to visit The Last of Us booth at PAX East in order to play the demo and while space is limited. Attendees can secure their spot via the Experience PlayStation mobile app available on Apple Store* and Google Play**. New spots will be opening up during each day of the event, so there’s a chance for you the player to get your hands on The Last of Us Part II if you didn’t the day prior. That’s of course if you are attending the entire weekend.
