Officially, Sony or Naughty Dog never talked about TLoU II for PS5, but there were rumours that hinted at it.

The PlayStation 5 version is likely to be officially announced at The Game Awards, which will take place on 7 December. However, it still remains a mystery what exactly to expect from the updated version. Of course, the game will have improved graphics, but Gustavo spoke about "the ability to play certain songs," so maybe we will get a lot of cut or new content?
