The Last of Us returns in a big way thanks to the series

Considering that we are facing a 10 year old video game, we are facing some completely crazy numbers. Surely as the weeks go by we will see something similar with the second part. Of course, when talking about a much newer video game, won’t be as flashy as this first increment.

For now, in the early hours of this Monday a second chapter was released that has also been very well received. The next monday january 30 The third episode will be released, of which there is already a lot of desire. Will this upward trend continue or as the days go by we will see less sales in ‘The Last of Us’ video games?
