Rating Summary
This is an action game in which players assume the roles of Joel and Ellie, human survivors battling their way through a post-apocalyptic world. From a third-person perspective, players traverse through city ruins and use a variety of weapons (e.g., pistols, rifles, explosives, spiked bats, steel pipes, blades) and melee attacks to fight off infected mutants and other human survivors. Players can also employ stealth kills (e.g., strangulations, pistol executions, stabbing attacks) and engage in extended combat sequences involving close-up camera angles and on-screen prompts. Screams of pain, realistic gunfire, and blood-splatter effects accompany the combat. Several attacks result in decapitation or dismemberment; body parts are depicted in some areas (e.g., chopping blocks). Cutscenes also depict intense acts of violence: a young character dying from gunshot wounds; adult characters executed at point-blank range; enemy characters being interrogated and stabbed in the knee. During the course of the game, a character makes sexual remarks about an adult magazine (e.g., "Whoa. How the hell would he even walk around with that thing” and “Oh why are these [pages] all stuck together?”). One scene allows the player to decide whether a young character drinks alcohol. The words “f**k,” “sh*t,” and “a*shole” appear in the dialogue.
