The Last of Us: Part II might not be launching until May 2020 on PlayStation 4, but that doesn't mean you can't play it for yourself early at a certain upcoming trade show. That's right, Sony is giving PAX East attendees the chance to play Naughty Dog's epic sequel on the show floor as part of the first-ever public hands on.
Running from 27th February through to 1st March, those heading to the Boston show will be allowed to play a demo featuring a full hour of gameplay within a section named Patrol. Said to take place early in the game, Ellie and Dina will venture outside of Jackson to clear out infected in the surrounding areas.
We have to imagine that the queues to play this one will be very, very long so it would be a good idea to download the Experience PlayStation mobile app where you'll be able to book a time slot on the day and walk straight up to the booth and start playing. It's an application we sampled at EGX last year and it certainly works well if you're quick enough when slots become available.
Are you heading to PAX East later this month? Does the prospect of playing The Last of Us: Part II early excite you? Join the queue in the comments below.

You guys seen the amazing dynamic themes that have released?
Americas: 4FMP-BBNM-J5L3
Europe/AU/NZ/Russia/Middle East/Africa/India: 9DEK-PKNG-N445
@DonJorginho thankyou buddy that's great I appreciate that.
They should release a beta for a chapter or 2 like they did the first one was great when you got to try it out before hand for yourself.
Almost worth the 5 hour drive!!!
@DonJorginho Thanks for the info
Nah i'll pass, even if it was on the store i wouldnt touch it. I would be so gutted after the hour, i havent even watched any of the trailers only one years ago. I know i'll be getting it day one no matter what, even if all reviews said 1 out of 10 id still get it, only death will stop me playing this game day one lol. Just come on may, @DonJorginho its a nice theme got it installed now this will have to do untill may for me lol.
Really wish they would release these demos to download on psn for the mass playstation audience. I mean FF7 remake will be getting one going by the leaks, it would certainly hold most over until the release date
Still not sure how hyped I feel about this one. I know it will be amazing because...well, obviously. But I do not have the energy to be hype because this game was announced waaaaay too early. (Yes, I'm still bitter about that). As far as PAX East is concerned, I may or may not be able to play it. Last year, even with the convenience of the app, getting in to play Control was next to impossible. How is THIS going to play out??
As depressing as it sounds, whenever someone says The Last of Us Part II, I just want it to come out already. Not because I'm hyped to play it (even though I really am deep down), but because I'm sick of its indefinite teasing.
