The Last of Us Part II's about to be seen in a whole new way. Grounded 2, a making-of documentary for The Last of Us Part II, premieres next week.
In a post on Naughty Dog's Twitter (https://twitter.com/Naughty_Dog/status/1750534132382277990), the studio confirms the new documentary arrives on February 2. It's a follow-up to Grounded (https://www.destructoid.com/free-for-all-the-last-of-us-documentary-now-on-youtube/), the making-of for the first Last of Us, and will head to both YouTube and in-game for those who own The Last of Us: Part II Remastered.

The documentary premieres at 9 a.m. PT / 12 p.m. ET for those waiting on the YouTube upload.

As I used to study Game Design (and will pay monthly for around 10 years), I've been interested in behind-the-scenes of the game industry for a while. In fact, one of my favorite documentaries is Raising Kratos (https://www.destructoid.com/god-of-war-documentary-raising-kratos-coming-to-youtube-soon/) by PlayStation and Santa Monica. Can't get more geeky than that.
I remember watching the first Grounded documentary when I finished The Last of Us Remastered for the first time. It was amazing seeing how a simple idea can become as big as the original did. I did watch it again before The Last of Us Part II's release, so to have a new documentary for Part II is kind of exciting, personally.
The Last of Us Part II is having its moment in the spotlight after its release in 2020. While met with some controversy (https://www.eurogamer.net/crunch-once-again-in-the-spotlight-after-damning-report-on-the-last-of-us-2-developer-naughty-dog), the game went home with dozens of Game of the Year awards (https://www.destructoid.com/here-are-all-the-winners-of-the-2020-game-awards/). Meanwhile, the Emmy-winning HBO show (https://www.destructoid.com/the-last-of-us-takes-home-eight-creative-emmy-awards/) is going onto its second season (https://www.destructoid.com/hbos-the-last-of-us-has-been-renewed-for-a-second-season/), which is set to adapt the sequel, and growing out its main cast for characters Abby (https://www.destructoid.com/kaitlyn-dever-cast-as-abby-in-the-last-of-us-season-2-hbo/), Jesse (https://www.destructoid.com/the-last-of-us-season-2-casts-young-mazino-as-jesse/), and Dina (https://www.destructoid.com/isabela-merced-cast-as-dina-in-the-last-of-us-season-2/).
Just last week, The Last of Us Part II got the remaster treatment for PlayStation 5. Our own Smangaliso Simelane rated the game a 9, saying in his review (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/review-the-last-of-us-part-2-remastered/): "Nevertheless, it manages to not only justify itself but also gives the most seasoned veterans something new to experience." It's a great time to be a Last of Us fan. Just, don't watch it if you want to be blissful in ignorance of what happens in the sequel. Hate to see someone watch it and find out about the golfing incident.
Grounded 2: Making The Last of Us Part II will be released in-game within The Last of Us Part II: Remastered and to YouTube on February 2 at 9 am PT/12 pm ET.
