"The Last of Us Part II may soon get a mod that supports multiplayer gameplay. Modder Speclizer recent test gameplay of their work-in-progress that showcased two Ellies bounding through a field together. As the PC mod is still in development, the Ellies aren't currently able to do much other than hang out and run around but it's already making fans pine for a proper multiplayer mode."
"The mod aims to eventually add PvP combat to , and would not feature multiplayer support for the game's story mode or any interactions with NPCs. Speclizer also that the mod is exploratory, and not guaranteed to be completed. It might become the unofficial version of the online mode fans have wanted for the sequel, or might just end up another failed fan project."
"Many fans are still mourning the cancellation of The Last of Us Online , an official multiplayer spinoff of the beloved franchise which Naughty Dog terminated two years ago. The decision to cancel The Last of Us Online -previously known by fans as based on the original 2013 PlayStation 3 game's multiplayer mode-was made in order to prioritize developing future single-player titles, such as the upcoming Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet . Speclizer's mod is an exciting peek into what could've been."
The Last of Us Part II PC mod under development adds experimental multiplayer, showing two Ellies running together in early tests. The mod currently allows only running and social presence, with no story-mode multiplayer or NPC interactions planned. The long-term aim is to add PvP combat, but the project is exploratory and completion is not guaranteed. The mod revives fan interest after Naughty Dog cancelled The Last of Us Online to prioritize future single-player titles such as Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet. Speclizer previously created battle mode, "Spare or Kill" ending, deleted-feature restorations, a dog companion, and a Kratos size mod.
