Counting every mention, coverage of The Last of Us is rising — it appears in 153 analyzed articles across the technology press.
What The Last of Us coverage is made of over time: story type, claim stage as reported, and press framing. This measures the coverage, not the product.
Across 49 classified coverage items, one item is 2 percentage points — read the shares below as the shape of a small sample, not as figures precise to the point.

How to read this
The stream below stacks each month's coverage by the lens you choose: Tone (how the press frames the story — promotional, skeptical, critical, or neutral), Story type (launches, funding, lawsuits, partnerships…), or Stage — how far the reported claim has gone: speculation → announcement → launch → results.
Taller bands mean more coverage that month; the dots beneath mark notable non‑neutral events. Every signal is sourced and dated.
How this is counted — why the article numbers differ
153 articles mention The Last of Us across the corpus. The coverage make-up above is measured on the 30 of them that were read into dated, classified coverage items — and one article can produce more than one item, because story type, claim stage and framing are read separately.

1 post on company and project channels mentions The Last of Us across the full 15-month record. They come from any company or project channel Compass reads, not only The Last of Us's own. They are counted separately from the 153 press articles.
