The multiplayer was far from the selling point of The Last of Us. People who bought the game bought it to play its single-player campaign, which was and is lauded as one of the best single-player stories of all-time. And for the upcoming sequel, developer Naughty Dog is once again focusing on the game's story, which once again looks bar-setting, and once again will be the reason people buy the game. But will it have multiplayer? Sony has previously said that multiplayer will return for the sequel, but at the moment, it hasn't revealed said multiplayer or even said anything further about it.

That said, on -- at least some -- Days of Play PS4 boxes, there's some fine print that mentions that The Last of Us Part II doesn't have multiplayer. Of course, this may be nothing more than a misprint or a mistake, but it's interesting to see on an official PlayStation product.

As you will know, there's been multiple Naughty Dog listings that more or less suggest that The Last of Us Part II has multiplayer, but maybe things have changed. Or, again, maybe this is a mistake.

The Last of Us Part II is in development for PS4, and currently doesn't have a release date. However, a few reports, rumors, and leaks are suggesting the game is coming sometime early 2020.
