It features a black-and-white colourway, with glossy PlayStation trophy icons printed across the surface that call back to key moments, characters, and events from The Last of Us Part I and The Last of Us Part II, as per the blog post.
Head of Studio and Head of Creative Neil Druckmann and Graphic Designer Megan Mehran from Naughty Dog said, “We were excited by the chance to memorialize The Last of Us franchise in a controller that fans and our own team would love. We wanted to ensure that both installments of The Last of Us are represented, via trophy icons printed in black gloss across the controller body.”
“Among the trophies, three particular images will immediately stand out for TLOU fans: The firefly, moth, and wolf. Players will recognize the Fireflies’ iconic spray-painted logo that originated in Part I, while the moth and wolf represent the intertwining lives and duality between Ellie and Abby in Part II.”
