"The Last of Us" was very challenging and meaningful to all of the staffs at Naughty Dog since we committed ourselves for years to offer the best experience to the users.
Although we had a confidence on the work, we never expected to be praised by many users so much.
Also, we think this success was unattainable without the cooperation of the SCE.

Also we'd like to thank every one of the users in Japan who have been cheering for many years the works of Naughty Dog and this work.
