Sony Group Corp. has slowed down development on an upcoming multiplayer game in its long-running The Last of Us video game series as the creators reassess its quality and long-term viability, according to four people familiar with the project. The team working on the game was scaled back after a recent evaluation, said the people, who asked not to be named because they weren't authorized to speak publicly. A small group remains on the project while the company reevaluates the direction. While the game has not been canceled, many of its developers have been moved to other projects. Following requests for comment from Bloomberg News, Naughty Dog, the Sony subsidiary working on the project, put out a statement on Twitter saying that "we've realized what's best for the game is to give it more time." Naughty Dog has been developing the multiplayer title for at least four years. It started as a complementary mode to The Last of Us: Part II, the single-player game released in 2020, but the creators grew ambitious and decided to make it into its own game, Naughty Dog said. Sony has invested heavily in "games as a service," or video games designed to be monetized beyond their initial sales through ongoing purchases. As part of that push it asked another of its video-game studios, Seattle-based Bungie, to evaluate the games across its portfolio. Bungie raised questions about the The Last of Us multiplayer project's ability to keep players engaged for a long period of time, which led to the reassessment.
据四位熟悉该项目的人士透露，索尼集团公司已经放慢了其长期运行的《最后生还者》视频游戏系列中即将推出的多人游戏的开发，因为创作者正在重新评估其质量和长期生存能力。 因无权公开发言而要求匿名的知情人士说，在最近的一次评估后，开发这款游戏的团队缩减了规模。在公司重新评估方向时，一小部分人留在该项目上。虽然游戏没有被取消，但它的许多开发者已经转移到其他项目。 在彭博社请求置评后，从事该项目的索尼子公司顽皮狗在 Twitter 上发表声明称，“我们已经意识到，对游戏最好的做法是给它更多时间。” 顽皮狗开发这款多人游戏至少已有四年时间。顽皮狗表示，它最初是作为 2020 年发布的单人游戏《最后生还者：第二部分》的补充模式，但创作者雄心勃勃，决定将其制作成自己的游戏。 索尼在“游戏即服务”或旨在通过持续购买在初始销售之外获利的视频游戏投入了大量资金。作为推动的一部分，它要求其另一家视频游戏工作室、总部位于西雅图的 Bungie 评估其产品组合中的游戏。 Bungie 对《最后生还者》多人游戏项目能否让玩家长时间保持参与提出了质疑，这导致了重新评估。
顽皮狗推特发布公告，称需要更多时间来完成最后生还者多人游戏，同时宣布多个其他项目正在开发中，包括一个全新的单人游戏IP
