The Last of Us Part I PC port has been delayed by three weeks. In a tweet, developer Naughty Dog confirmed that the highly-anticipated emotional, zombie-slaying survivor game that was originally set to release on March 3rd will now be released on March 28th. The studio claims the extra time will be used to ensure a polished launch experience, free from bugs or optimization issues. The delay was caused in part by the success surrounding HBO’s The Last of Us adaptation, with Naughty Dog not wanting to tarnish its reputation by pushing out a port that’s a little rough around the edges.
“We in the studio have been completely blown away by the outpouring of love and support for The last of us these last few weeks. Hear your love for that HBO Adapt, view your beautiful Photo Mode footage and learn how the world and characters our studio created almost a decade ago continue to reach new and old fans alike every day,” reads the open letter from cheeky dog reads. “And we want to ensure that The Last of Us Part 1 PC debut is in the best possible shape. These extra weeks will allow us to ensure that this version of The Last of Us meets your standards and ours.” The developer has not yet announced the system requirements and new ones PC specific Functions that would normally be one PS5 Version – started in Septemberlast year – which improved the graphics and loading times.
The Last of Us Part 1 PS5 Review: Absolutely gorgeous, but overpriced
But if past PlayStation– PC ports are everything you could imagine – which have been consistent – Gamers can expect unlocked framerates, support for ultrawide monitors and other tech benefits tailored to graphics cards. However, the story remains the same as that Original version from 2013, in which you follow the journey of a hardened survivor Joel tasked with smuggling a teenage girl Ellie across a post-pandemic USA teeming with infected mutants. By dealing with their grief and overcoming eccentric survivors, the two eventually embrace a father-daughter relationship and ignite a light of hope in Joel’s unhappy mind.
Throughout its marketing campaign for the launch of the PS5 Sony seemed pretty aggressive about getting people to understand that The Last of Us Part I was a full blown remake built from the ground up. Even then, the Rs. $4,999/$70 price tag seemed overpriced to fans — particularly those who played the previous versions. There are now three variants – the original 2013 Last of Us, the PS4 Remaster and now a remake. A game so good that Naughty Dog couldn’t resist reworking it and releasing it again. The Last of Us Part I not only improved the visuals, but also added AI upgrades (enemies) so that they behave similarly to those in the featured one critically acclaimed bloody sequel, The Last of Us Part II. A permadeath mode was also included for the gaming masochists out there, alongside over 60 accessibility features, aimed at those suffering from visual, auditory or motor problems.
Celebrating the debut of the HBO series last month The Last of Us Part I was made available as a two-hour free trial version PSPlus Deluxe/Premium Members. Those on the fence about getting this game can take it for a test drive and make an informed decision as to whether the upgrades are worth full price. A PS Plus Deluxe subscription costs Rs. 849 per month. HBO has since renewed The last of us row for a second seasonwhich will record the events of The Last of Us Part II Game.
The Last of Us Part I is coming to PC on March 28th. Pre-orders are streamed live steam And Epic game store at Rs. 3,999.
