The Last Guardian: A Boy and Trico
PlayStation describes The Last Guardian as a touching tale of camaraderie and hope. You play as a young boy, and alongside you is Trico, the giant creature on the cover. Together you face intricate puzzles on a journey to find the truth behind an ancient mystery.
The game is built around that pairing rather than combat. Progress depends on the two of you working as a team, which is why PlayStation frames the whole experience around the power of friendship instead of action set pieces.
From the Creator of Ico and Shadow of the Colossus
Fumito Ueda directed Ico and Shadow of the Colossus, two PlayStation games known for their quiet, atmospheric style, and The Last Guardian is his follow-up. In an official PlayStation Blog update, Shuhei Yoshida credited the vision to Ueda alongside Japan Studio and genDESIGN.
The same post explains that the team moved the launch by a few weeks to 6 December 2016 after running into more bugs than expected in the final stages of development. That long road is part of why The Last Guardian was, in PlayStation’s words, one of the most anticipated games of the decade.
Playing The Last Guardian on PS4 and PS5
This is a PS4 disc, and it plays on PS4, PS4 Slim and PS4 Pro. It is also playable on a PS5 with a disc drive; PlayStation notes that the system may need the latest system software and that some features available on PS4 may be absent on PS5.
PlayStation Store UAE lists 15 screen languages for The Last Guardian: Arabic, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (Portugal), Russian, Spanish, Swedish and Turkish. It is rated PEGI 12 for violence.
Who This Is Not For
The Last Guardian is a slow, puzzle-driven adventure with a single player, so it will not suit anyone who wants fast combat, competitive modes or co-op with a friend. There is no multiplayer.
It is a PS4 game rather than a native PS5 version, and Sony itself warns that some PS4 features may be missing when it runs on PS5. A PS5 Digital Edition without a disc drive cannot read this disc at all. Players who dislike puzzle sections that take patience and experimentation may also find the pace demanding.
