TLOU Remastered Uses DS4 Triggers For Aim/Shoot

July is flying by, which means that every day is a step towards the anticipated launch of TLOU Remastered on PlayStation 4, the most notable gaming release of the month by far. We’re still waiting to get proper screenshots (other than these ones, supposedly leaked from a Korean site) and proper video footage for TLOU Remastered, after all the boasts about enhanced graphics; however, there will be improvements in controls as well, as confirmed by Naughty Dog’s Game Director Bruce Straley. First of all, the studio has decided to use the DualShock 4′s triggers (L2-R2) instead of the “bumpers” (L1-R1) to aim & shoot by default, which Straley says feels great.

I have to admit that the DualShock 4 is so superior to the previous iteration, that even this will result in a big improvement while playing The Last of Us, especially during multiplayer sessions or even the hardest setting of the campaign. Good news for the left-handed fellows as well - the game’s original release on PlayStation 3 didn’t support southpaw controls, but this time Naughty Dog added it.

Of course, everyone wants to see more of the game and according to a Facebook post on the official PlayStation Australia page, we’ll get our wishes next week. Stay tuned for more on TLOU Remastered!
