The team behind the event is still planning to put something

The Clickers in The Last of Us are just terrifying, there’s no other way to describe them.

We see many talented cosplayers grace the screens here at DualShockers from The Witcher 3‘s Ciri to Final Fantasy VII Remake’s Tifa Lockhart.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has a vast cast of memorable characters. It prides itself on being a narrative-driven romp through a rich Tolkien-esque world.

There’s a ton of cosplay in 2020 — with The Witcher and Final Fantasy VII Remake surging in popularity, it is no wonder they continue to be recurring themes.

Personally, when I think about Assassin’s Creed, I get nostalgic and think about my favorite games in the series.
