The Last of Us' third DLC will add new single player difficulty

 

The third and final DLC drop in The Last of Us' Season Pass will introduce a brand new difficulty mode for the single player campaign, Naughty Dog has revealed.

Though the majority of its contents will be multiplayer focused, "chock full" with new maps, weapons, and skills, the new difficulty mode should provide a refreshing gameplay experience for those of you not ready to move on from one of the greatest games of the PS3 era.

"We’ll have more information on [the new DLC] as in-game elements near completion," Naughty Dog said.

In the meantime, players can currently enjoy the the game's second DLC release, Left Behind, a prequel "of sorts" to the original single player campaign.

A difficulty level as DLC? Weak.

I hope they mean everyone gets the new difficulty level, and it will be included in the next patch for the DLC.

It looks like you have to buy the DLC to get the new difficulty level. If that's the case, this will be the first time EVER I've been pished off by ND.

Oh boy, I hope it'll be free.
Even the hardest difficulty wasn't that challenging.



Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you are necessarily right.

I sincerely hope ND won't make such a mistake. They've been perfect so far...

I watched the Grounded documentary and at the beginning they briefly mentioned "super intelligent AI" that would kill you in instantly and it "didn't feel fun" so I guess they had to dumb it down to make it more accessible. I pray to God they return thst godlike AI fromE3 in the following DLC

The only difficulty levels they need to change are the enemy AIand the broken stealth. The clicker sections are far too easy for what they should be. Lame DLC.

Except that Ranger Mode was a 10$ add on of the difficulty that was already in the previous game and was basically the whole DLC content.

 

In this case, the new difficulty is just a nice bonus to a shit ton of new multiplayer content
