Not only does this mean that PC gamers will finally be able to experience one of the most acclaimed games in fairly recent memory in an ideal way, but this remake’s PC port solidifies PlayStation’s interest in bringing more games to that platform. That’s honestly a pretty big deal given that The Last of Us has never officially been released for PC in any other format (unless you want to count those who played the game on PC via the PlayStation Now service). While the wording of that statement strongly suggests the PC version of the game will not be available on September 2, at least PC gamers know they will eventually be able to access that experience. The trailer for The Last of Us remake ends with a note that reveals the remake is in development for PC. That means that console gamers who really want to play this remake will need a PS5 and a spare $70. In case you’re somehow wondering, you should also know that there is no way The Last of Us remake will come to the Nintendo Switch or Xbox unless some kind of seismic shift in industry dynamics occurs in the very near future. So far as other consoles go, that certainly does seem to be the case. Indeed, that price point probably leaves you to assume that The Last of Us remake will be a true next-gen exclusive that only PS5 gamers will get to enjoy. Furthermore, it will retail for $70: the price point typically reserved for Triple-A next-gen exclusives. While the remake will feature much-improved graphics, all of the original game’s single-player content, and a few modern gameplay enhancements, it will not include any version of The Last of Us‘ underrated Factions multiplayer mode. Even better, it is scheduled to be released for the PS5 on September 2, 2022. More specifically, gamers who are still without a PS5 are wondering if there is any chance that they’ll be able to play this remake on their PS4 or PC.įor those who didn’t hear, 2013’s The Last of Us is indeed getting that long-awaited PS5 remake. Now that the cat is out of the bag and The Last of Us‘ PS5 remake has been leaked ahead of its previously scheduled debut, millions of fans are wondering when they’ll actually be able to get their hands on the game.
