A Last of Us Tommy Game Would Need to Be More Than Just a Prequel for Joel’s Brother

When developers create spin-off games, they get an opportunity to tell the main game’s story from a different perspective, sometimes allowing players to step into the shoes of some of their favorite supporting characters. Naughty Dog excels in storytelling, making even the side characters feel essential to the game’s narrative, and one character who left a lasting impact in both The Last of Us 1 and 2 is Tommy. Tommy was so iconic that some fans yearned for a Last of Us game centered around him to shed more light on his life and the unique influence he brings to the franchise’s narrative, expanding his role beyond being a mere side character to Joel and Ellie’s story.
