Summary

  • Transforming a PS5 to mirror The Last of Us world, Safe-Hope-172's dedication showcases the game's haunting beauty in every detail.
  • The Last of Us community's creativity shines as fans immortalize the franchise through unique artwork and handcrafted pieces like Safe-Hope-172's.
  • Despite uncertainty about the franchise's future, The Last of Us fans continue to captivate with their passion and admiration for the game.

A devoted The Last of Us fan has shared their incredible dedication to the Naughty Dog franchise by not only handcrafting a PlayStation 5 that looks like it just came straight out of the post-apocalyptic game, but also by decorating their room with iconic and beloved details from its world. Since the franchise's debut in 2013, there's been no shortage of praise for The Last of Us' harrowing narrative and its stunning yet dark environments filled with unearthly infected who have succumbed to the Cordyceps virus. While its mushroom-invested ecosystem may give some players the creeps, others see the beauty and the enchantment in the game's smaller details.

Even though the future of the franchise is currently up in the air regarding whether a third installment could actually be in the works, most fans would agree that the epic post-apocalyptic adventure feels inevitable due to how incredibly Naughty Dog captivates players with its environmental storytelling. However, even if The Last of Us fans didn't get a continuation, the undying support and admiration for the franchise will certainly live on with the community's creative side, which will endeavor to capture its world through its neverending artwork.

Story-Heavy Games To Play If You Like The Last Of Us Part 2

Naughty Dog's The Last Of Us Part 2 is one of the most story-heavy games around, and these other games will scratch a similar itch.

In doing just that by delving into the game community's artistic side is Reddit user Safe-Hope-172, who posted a host of amazing images of their The Last of Us-themed PlayStation 5. Invested in the deadly Cordyceps virus that includes spine-chilling protruding mushrooms and deeply rooted vines, Safe-Hope-172 also coated the PS5 in a rusted hue to really make it look like it has seen better days, as well as incorporating the iconic Last of Us firefly symbol painted in white, just like it is seen in the game.

Handcrafted The Last of Us PlayStation 5

Not willing to stop at creating just the Last of Us PS5, Safe-Hope-172 showcases their other design creations picked straight from its world. On their wall, the talented creator also painted the emotional The Last of Us giraffe scene, an iconic poster of Abby Anderson holding a hammer, the Abby and Owen archery scoreboard from The Last of Us Part 2, and a broken-down PlayStation 4 controller encased in a glass frame and given the dystopian treatment with moss.

Although many Last of Us fans really enjoy handcrafting art pieces from scratch that they admire in a bid to replicate them in real life, they also love nothing more than immortalizing the franchise in their own unique way. Previously, another skilled The Last of Us fan showcased an anime-style tattoo of Ellie, which transformed the strong and witty character into something that looked like it was ripped straight from the pages of a manga comic.
