  • Stealth

One thing you must always keep in your mind when playing The Last Of Us: being stealthy is the key of survival. Pretty much all enemy encounters in the game are completely optional and there’s always a way to avoid the infected. This is even more important if you’re playing the game on higher difficulty levels. Make sure to always stay crouched to reduce movement noise; always moving behind objects also helps. Always be careful about any possible sounds: the infected will make a bit of noise when searching you so use this to your advantage.

Even when you’re discovered you can escape from enemies without any problem: when running away from enemies, make sure to break their line of sight. Once they lose track of you, they’ll head back to the place where they spotted you first so make sure to not go back there.
