As we saw with the first game, The Last of Us 2 Grounded Mode will be a super-challenging mode that turns the survival elements up to 11, with health and ammo scarcity having a massive impact on firefights, as well as enemy tactics and lethality being cranked up.
Though it might have been disappointing to see The Last of Us 2 Grounded Mode not available for launch, perhaps it was for the best as players can first get used to the game on an easier difficulty, learning where the toughest encounters are and then being able to properly stock up supplies for that Grounded Mode run! On August 13, the true test begins!
