It looks like Sony and Naughty Dog have delayed The Last of Us: Part 2 indefinitely. The upcoming game will no longer hit store shelves and the digital scene on May 29th, 2020. This is yet another delay the PS4 exclusive has faced, which this time is due to the coronavirus.
This delay will likely cause problems for the HBO TV series adaptation, given that production was planned around the launch of the game. However, before jumping into the show riddled with social justice gay propaganda, you can read what Naughty Dog announced via Twitter right here:

If you have trouble reading the post, below lies a written version of the above tweet:
“As you’ve likely just seen, the release of The Last of Us Part II has been delayed. We’re sure this news is just as disappointing to you as it is to us. We wanted to reach out to all of you in our community to give you a little more information.
The good news is, we’re nearly done with development of The Last of Us Part II. We are in the midst of fixing our final bugs.
However, even with us finishing the game, we were faced with the reality that due to logistics beyond our control, we couldn’t launch The Last of Us Part II to our satisfaction. We want to make sure everyone gets to play The Last of Us Part II around the same time, ensuring that we’re doing everything possible to preserve the best experience for everyone. This meant delaying the game until such a time where we can solve these logistic issues.
We were bummed about this decision but ultimately understood it’s what’s best and fair to all of our players. We’re hoping that this won’t be a long delay and we’ll update you as soon as we have new information to share.
We wish you all, your families, and your friends the best of health. Thank you for being amazing fans and your continued support.
Stay safe!
– Naughty Dog”
Although the above letter doesn’t specifically mention the “global crisis” or coronavirus, the following letter by Sony does. The following notice also makes mention of the virus affecting the launch of Marvel’s Iron Man for the worse. In other words, the pandemic has made it where both games are delayed indefinitely:
Update: SIE has made the difficult decision to delay the launch of The Last of Us Part II and Marvel’s Iron Man VR until further notice. Logistically, the global crisis is preventing us from providing the launch experience our players deserve.

So there you have it, the upcoming show that won’t shy away from gay propaganda may or may not start production in late May or early April since the game it’s based on is delayed indefinitely.
Lastly, February 21st was the game’s first launch date until it was pushed to May 29th, 2020. As of now, the game has no release date and is still set to launch worldwide someday for PS4.
