Naughty Dog revealed multiplayer details for their upcoming action-adventure The Last of Us via first wave of previews.

The Last of Us multiplayer is called ‘Factions’, split into two game types, Supply Raid and Survivors. Both support up to four players per team across seven maps, according to TheSixthAxis.

Premise: “The multiplayer involves the player choosing to join one of two teams – two groups of humans taken from the singleplayer portion of the game.

You chose a character then customize it in terms of appearance (with various options for hats, masks, helmets and gestures – most of which will need unlocking rather than being available from the start) and you can also design an emblem, although you’re really pulling from pre-made shapes rather than creating your own.”

“When you select a clan, you’ll get a handful of survivors too. The aim is to play matches over a series of days and weeks (each match represents a day) and get enough supplies out on the battlefield to slowly grow your survivor count. Pretty much everything you do in a battle is translated into supplies, including crafting and healing.”

“There are four default ones (assault, sniper, support and stealth) and four custom slots. Each has a small and large weapon (for example, the stealth class has a silenced 9mm pistol and a bow) and there are also additional bolt-on skills, like Covert Training 2, which lets you crouch-walk without showing up on an opponent’s Listen Mode tracking.”

Listen mode in Factions is for a limited time before it recharges, keeping your character still will make you invisible to others, Listen Mode lets you move undetected, bit slowly.

Your clan gets few survivors, your goal is to play matches over a series of days and weeks (each match counts as a day), as you progress and get enough supplies your survivor count grows. Crafting items, healing and gathering resources will help your clan’s survival.

More details related to The Last of Us multiplayer will be revealed soon.
