Ahead of The Last of Us Part 1’s launch not long from now, Naughty Dog and Sony have been ramping up the excitement surrounding its release with new trailers revealing details on everything from the improvements the remake makes over the original to its accessibility features, while we recently also got roughly seven minutes of uncut gameplay footage.

Now, another new trailer has been released, which focuses on the remake’s art direction. The trailer sees a number of The Last of Us Part 1’s developers talking about how the remake’s art direction helps propel its visual upgrades over the original game, with lighting in particular having been an area where Naughty Dog placed a great deal of focus. You can get more details in the trailer below.
