The Last of Us: Part 2 Remastered already came out in January, but now it's being re-released on PC April 3, 2025.
Announced at The Game Awards tonight, all of you on PC will soon be able to play the second stage of Joel and Ellie's journey through a zombie-infested world. As per the game's Steam page, the PC version will come with improved graphics, the roguelike No Return game mode, and full DualSense controller integration if you want to feel like you're playing on a PS5.
The Last of Us Part 2 continues Ellie and Joel's journey. It follows a grownup Ellie as she embarks on a self-destructive journey of revenge. It's a dark tale in a grim world, making the original game look like a happy memory in comparison. I adore Naughty Dog, but I've only played through this game once because it felt so heavy.
- The Last of Us 2 Remastered finally gives the most underrated character from Part 1 the love he deserves by making him one of two new playable heroes in the roguelike mode No Return
- Naughty Dog has done it: it's remastered the PS5 controller with a Last of Us-themed DualSense announcement 24 hours after Neil Druckmann dashed our hopes for The Last of Us 3
There are also a few very brave twists that I won't spoil here, but I didn't anticipate any of them when I played through the game at launch.
I'll admit, I was a little sad at first because it feels like Naughty Dog has just been a remake and remaster studio for the last few years, but the final reveal of the show excited us all as the studio's new game, a fresh IP called Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet graced our screens.
While you wait, it's the perfect time to play through The Last of Us: Part 2 Remastered, and I hope now that it's on PC we get some cool mods. The possibilites there are quite literally endless.

After telling The Last of Us fans don't "bet on" a Part 3, Neil Druckmann says "so many stars have to align, I can't guarantee it" but he treats every game "like it could be my last"
The Last of Us director Neil Druckmann wanted to make sure the first game "was complete" because "I wasn't sure they would ever let me direct a game again"
