Sony has officially unveiled the PC specifications for The Last of Us Part II Remastered, set to launch on April 3, alongside exciting updates for the No Return Mode on both PC and PlayStation 5. In a detailed post on the PlayStation Blog, Naughty Dog highlighted the collaborative efforts of Nixxes Software and Iron Galaxy in bringing an enhanced version to PC, a year following its debut on PlayStation 5.

The Last of Us Part II Remastered PC Features:

The PC version boasts a suite of advanced features tailored to enhance the gaming experience:

  • Nvidia DLSS 3 Super Resolution support
  • AMD FSR 3.1 and AMD FSR 4 support with upscaling and frame generation
  • VSync and framerate cap options, including an uncapped framerate option
  • DirectStorage support
  • Adjustable Texture Quality
  • LOD Distance Range
  • Volumetric Quality
  • Shadow Quality
  • Ambient Occlusion
  • Reflections Quality

Additionally, the game supports ultrawide monitors, allowing gameplay in 21:9 ultra-wide, 32:9 super ultra-wide, and even 48:9 resolutions with compatibility for triple-monitor setups. Players can enjoy the game in 4K resolution with support for various controllers and keyboard/mouse controls, complete with 3D audio.

Keyboard and mouse controls come with new customization options, including full control remapping, primary and secondary bindings, and an adaptive mode that lets players combine keyboard and controller inputs. DualSense controllers offer full haptic feedback.

Sony emphasized, "The Last of Us Part II Remastered on PC offers a wide range of graphics settings and presets, to ensure the best possible experience on hardware ranging from high-end PCs to handheld gaming devices."

No Return Mode Updates:

Sony announced the addition of two new characters to No Return Mode: Bill and Marlene from The Last of Us Part I. Bill brings a "Smuggler" playstyle with access to a custom pump shotgun from dead drops and double rewards from drops, though he can't dodge melee attacks. Marlene introduces a "Risk Taker" playstyle, equipped with a Custom Assault Rifle and unique "All or Nothing" gambits.

Four new maps are also on their way to No Return Mode:

  • Overlook, set high above Seattle with verticality and a memorable Seraphites encounter.
  • School, an abandoned elementary school from the campaign where Ellie and Dina face the W.L.F.
  • Streets, located in the overgrown Hillcrest neighborhood of Seattle.
  • Nest, familiar to players who've played as Abby through an Infected-infested building.

These updates, along with new Trophies and bug fixes, will be available on PS5 simultaneously with the PC launch through a free downloadable 2.0.0 patch.

PSN Sign-In Incentives:

While signing into PSN is optional for the PC version, doing so unlocks the PlayStation overlay, PSN Trophies, and 50 in-game points for bonus features. Additionally, players who sign in will receive a new skin for Ellie featuring Jordan A. Mun’s jacket from Naughty Dog’s upcoming game, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet.

PS5 players can also unlock this skin via the 2.0 patch using in-game bonus points.

Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet:

Neil Druckmann, the director of The Last of Us, recently provided more insights into Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, which has been in development for four years. This game, set in an alternate historical timeline, focuses on themes of faith and religion and stars Tati Gabrielle as Jordan A. Mun.

HBO's The Last of Us Season 2:

As the PC version of The Last of Us Part II Remastered approaches its release, anticipation builds for Season 2 of HBO's adaptation, where showrunners Druckmann and Craig Mazin have confirmed the return of spores, omitted in Season 1.

These comprehensive updates and incentives are designed to enhance the gaming experience for both new and returning players across platforms.
