Neil Druckmann, Naughty Dog’s Vice President calls it the most ambitious and longest game Naughty Dog has ever made in its 35-year history and the trailer below only scratches the surface of what is to come.

“We began working on this game over five years ago. It’s hard to describe the immense pressure of following up the first game. We know how much you love this world and its characters — especially Ellie and Joel. Believe me, we’re fans as well. We love them.
