Cancelled The Last of Us Online director says it was ‘the best multiplayer game’ the team had ever played

The Last of Us Online was canceled, disappointing many fans who anticipated it as a significant addition to the franchise. Former game director Vinit Agarwal called it "the best multiplayer game [the team] ever played," a sentiment shared by many ex-colleagues. Initially intended as a mode for the single-player campaign, the project evolved into a standalone multiplayer spin-off. The cancellation decision arose from a choice between continuing TLOU Online or prioritizing the next game directed by Neil Druckmann. Agarwal learned of the cancellation just 24 hours before the public announcement, describing it as "soul-crushing." He expressed a commitment to ensuring future projects do not go unnoticed. The gaming community is now looking forward to Druckmann's next title, speculated to be Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, with hopes that elements of TLOU's multiplayer experience may eventually return.

The Pragmata mods are starting to roll in, and thank the stars they’re largely focused on the dad bod

Capcom's Pragmata has seen a surge in creative video game modifications, particularly focusing on the protagonist, Hugh. Modders have introduced several character skins for Hugh, including a Dead Space outfit by user FokeyT26, a Doom Guy skin from Doom: The Dark Ages, and a Master Chief skin that was previously exclusive to a deluxe edition. Additionally, players have swapped Hugh for characters from various genres, such as the protagonist of Wuthering Waves and Minecraft's Steve, and even replaced a game enemy with Shrek. The modding community continues to explore new possibilities, with characters like CJ from GTA: San Andreas and Optimus Prime also appearing in the game. Pragmata is available for .99 on Steam, and using REFramework is necessary to unlock these modifications.
