The Last of Us star condemns homophobic hate

Neil Druckmann, the director of the popular video game series “The Last of Us,” has spoken out against homophobic hate speech and discrimination. In a recent interview, Druckmann emphasized the importance of inclusivity and diversity in the gaming community.

“It’s heartbreaking to see individuals in our community targeted and harassed because of their sexual orientation or gender identity,” Druckmann said. “As a developer, it’s our responsibility to create a safe and welcoming space for all players.”

Druckmann’s comments come in the wake of several high-profile incidents of homophobic hate speech in the gaming community. In response, many players and developers have called for greater accountability and action against hate speech and discrimination.

“We must stand together against hate and discrimination in all its forms,” Druckmann concluded. “Only then can we truly create a gaming community that is inclusive, diverse, and welcoming to all.”
