The Last of Us Part II's new mode puts the story in chronological order
In addition to Chronological Mode, the patch also includes new achievements and skins to use in Part II Remastered's roguelike game mode No Return. Now you can dress up Joel and his brother Tommy like Naughty Dog's other pair of visually indistinct, emotionally constipated brothers; Nathan and Sam Drake. Naughty Dog does still recommend that first timers play TLOU Part II normally before tackling Chronological Mode but that, 'the team's hard work has paid off with a fascinating new way to enjoy this chapter.' Chronological Mode will give players a new reason to pick up the game while awaiting the next season of the show which will dive into events from Abby's perspective. Season 3 though, will proceed without Neil Druckmann as co-lead. Druckmann, co-director of both The Last of Us games and creative director at Naughty Dog, recently announced that he's taking a break from the show to focus efforts on the studio's games including the recently announced, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet.

Found: Bella Hadid's Exact Summer Slip Dress From Mango
Bella Hadid is casually living my dream, and I'm not even deeply jealous! I'm out here begging for a text back from finance bros off Hinge while she's cosplaying as the lead of a steamy equestrian romance novel—with a criminally hot cowboy BF, I might add. The universe has favorites, and she is one! The good news? At least I can cop her style. My relatable queen took to Instagram Stories on Monday to share snaps from her bestie's baby shower while outfitted in a totally affordable Mango dress. Thank you for saving my wallet this time around, Bells! She styled the under-$200 lace camisole design with a pair of brown cowboy boots for the perf western flair. The dress is crafted from a lightweight and breezy polyester fabric that's ideal for summer (I mean, hello, Bella wore it outside in the California heat), while the midi-length silhouette and delicate lace-trimmed v-neckline make it feel like the sorta vintage treasure you'd dig up at an overpriced thrift store. The built-in lining is just a bonus—and one you prob wouldn't find in an actual thrift store style. Now, onto the accessories. Bella paired the lacy slip with a slouchy oversized tote, yellow-lensed sunglasses, and a few brown arm cuffs to finish the look. But, let's be so for real for a sec—it's the tall brown cowboy boots that really sell this 'fit for me. The combo feels effortless and cool. Not to mention, cowboy boots (and western inspo in general) are having a serious moment RN and not just for horse girls. Tecovas' Annie Boot is a perf pick if you're looking for a classic cowboy boot—they come in practically every shade imaginable in luxe leather and suede—and the Abby is another (slightly taller) iteration with the same feel. Leaning more contemporary? A lil trendier? I'd go for this heeled Dolce Vita version or the Schutz Maryann Up Curve Boot, which leans more hot girl on a Nashville bachelorette than ranch hand, but they still have a western touch. This blue jean-inspired suede and leather design def deserves honorable mention. Now that I hit "add to cart" on the dress and the boots...I just need the cowboy boyfriend. Anyone, anyone??? Megan Schaltegger is an NYC-based writer. She loves strong coffee, eating her way through the Manhattan food scene, and her dog, Murray. She promises not to talk about herself in third person IRL.
