During Sony's E3 conference, Naughty Dog debuted a brand new gameplay trailer for their upcoming release, The Last of Us: Part II, which finally confirmed that Ellie will indeed be a playable character - and based on the trailer, it looks like she'll be kicking just as much ass as Joel did in the first installment.
Unfortunately, there was no word on a release date, but if the developer follows the same release pattern as the first game, it's not exactly a stretch to assume it may be in stores sometime next summer.
