Entertainment from the Last of Us: 8 video game games that would yield good series some productions were famous for evolving plots, complex characters or captivating settings and could repeat the success in the small writing.

The Last of Us has become one of the prominent series recently. Launched by HBO in 2023, the production completed season 2 and prepares for the already confirmed third lead of chapters – with season 4 on the horizon, according to the screenwriter of the series.

If production is a success, it would be hard to imagine that the video game game that inspired the series was different. The Last of Us was chosen by Rolling Stone as the 5th best game in history in a list that selected the 50 best titles.

Adapting games to the small screens is not exactly an easy task – no wonder, several attempts have failed or have been below expected. But the task is simpler in some cases with well -designed scripts, striking characters and good settings. Therefore, Rolling Stone Brazil has prepared a list of great video games that would yield series of the same level. See below.

Death Stranding

The game takes place in a dystopian future after a mysterious event opens a passage between the living and the dead causing an invasion of creatures that devastated the United States. The protagonist, Sam Porter BridgesIt is a lonely delivery man who seeks to reconnect isolated cities to save the last survivors. The plot is a plate full for the small screens and could result in a SCI-Fi adaptation with great potential to win the public. Furthermore, Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is about to reach the PlayStation And promises another adventure chapter, which could result in a second season.

God of War

One of the most important titles in PlayStation, God of War Tell the story of Kratosa Spartan warrior who faces the gods of Olympus in search of revenge. He becomes the god of war and sets out to a Nordic kingdom while trying to protect his son, Trayand avoid a conflict between the gods of Asgard. The franchise God of War It brings a striking protagonist, loved by video game fans, and mixes mythology, brutal struggles and family drama. A series could detail this rich universe and further deepen the conflicts of each character.

Uncharted

The franchise follows Nathan Drakean adventurer who travels the world to unravel mysteries and find lost treasures. With four main games and a few more derivatives, the title is acclaimed by action scenes and detailed environments. Uncharted has already been adapted to the cinema in 2022, but the movie with Tom Holland did not please. A series could approach the characters and the exploiting spirit in more detail and quality.

Far Cry 3

The classic of Ubisoft is among the most acclaimed in the franchise Far Cy and brings the protagonist Jason Brodyan American young man who, during a holiday with friends on a tropical island, is captured by criminals led by Montenegro Vaas. Jason It escapes, but plunges into a brutal journey of survival and finds itself in the midst of a faction dispute while trying to rescue your friends. Far Cry 3 It is another case of interesting protagonist and many scenes of action and suspense. In addition, we have a complex villain, which represents a differential and would yield a part. An adaptation of the game could bring the rich ambiance inspired by the island where the plot happens, besides following the psychological and moral drama of two striking characters.

Assassin’s Creed

Another example of movie adapted game, but it did not please. In Assassin’s Creedthe protagonists relive the millennial conflict between killers and templars from the memories of their ancestors in a machine called Animus. Each game follows a different historical period, from ancient Egypt to the Italian Renaissance, always filled with conspiracies and moral dilemmas. While the film was described as slow and unhappy, a series would have fertile ground to explore the multiple lines of time and ambient environments of a franchise that brings together fans around the world.

GTA V

In the fifth chapter of the franchise Grand Theft Autoplayers follow the stories of three protagonists living in a fictional city inspired by Los Angeles. Michael de Santa He is a former banks who deal with a deep family crisis while trying to leave the criminal past behind. Franklin Clinton He is a young man on the outskirts looking to get out of street crime to something more ambitious. AND Trevor Philips It is an unpredictable madman who lives in the desert and leads his own chaotic drug and weapon cartel. The stories of the three intersect in the midst of poorly planned blows, past traumas and increasingly bold crimes, as well as persecution of other criminals and even from FBI. Here is the recipe for one of the most acclaimed series of all time. Different narrative lines and points of view; three complex characters with different characteristics; Scenes of action, suspense and ironic comedy. Not to mention that GTA V It is an absolute success. With over 210 million copies, the game is the 2nd best selling in history.

LIFE IS STRAGE

In LIFE IS STRAGE, Maxa photography student finds that he can go back in time. Power helps the girl to resolve some conflicts, but eventually show that her decisions directly affect the fate of the people around her, including her best friend Chloe. An adaptation for the small screens would bring the perfect teen drama spirit for the streaming services catalog. In addition, the game exudes a psychological thriller style with unexpected and surprising narrative changes. Briefly, LIFE IS STRAGE It has history for several seasons.

Red Dead Redemption 2

Like this GTA V, Red Dead Redemption 2 It was produced by Rockstar And it is often remembered as one of the best games of all time. Set on the old-west, the game follows Arthur Morgana cowboy who lives the decline of the Out-of-Law era. Morgan do everything to save the gang Van der linde other criminals and detectives PINKERTONBut in the midst of a journey of redemption, he realizes that other things are more important than the loyalty to a group marked by betrayal. Red Dead Redemption 2 It brings a mature western drama. The series could present a varied range of characters, all full of complexities and particularities in their stories. With prologue, epilogue and striking twists, production would also have all the ingredients needed to adapt an absolutely acclaimed game. All that remains is to get the project off the paper. And for Jack Blackit is surprising that this has not yet happened.

While a series of RDR2 It is not announced by the great producers, fans can be content with the continuation of The Last of Uswhich should win two more seasons in the near future.
