Experience the emotional storytelling and unforgettable characters in The Last of Us™, winner of over 200 Game of the Year awards.
In a ravaged civilization, where infected and hardened survivors run rampant, Joel, a weary protagonist, is hired to smuggle 14-year-old Ellie out of a military quarantine zone. However, what starts as a small job soon transforms into a brutal cross-country journey.

Release Date
March 28th, 2023​

Built for PC​

The Last of Us Part I PC release brings with it plenty of PC features to bring Joel and Ellie’s tense and unforgettable journey to life. This version of The Last of Us Part I is optimized for PC with PC-centric quality-of-life enhancements. Part I will feature AMD FSR 2.2 support*, Nvidia DLSS Super Resolution support*, VSync and frame rate cap options, and a host of features designed specifically for PC, including adjustable Texture Quality, Shadows, Reflections, Ambient Occlusion, and more.

Through the experiences of Joel and Ellie, PC players can fully immerse themselves in beautiful yet haunting environments in stunning detail with true 4K resolutions**. From the harsh, oppressive streets of the Boston QZ to the overgrown and abandoned homes of Bill’s Town to so much more, embark on a beautiful journey across the United States of America with Ultra-Wide Monitor Support for both 21:9 Ultrawide and 32:9 Super Ultrawide aspect ratios.

Experience all these locations, stealthily sneaking through abandoned homes and cities (and picking their drawers and cabinets clean looking for supplies) or engage in tense, captivating action with 3D audio support to better hear the rustle of leaves, the crack of glass, or the footfalls of enemies trying to ambush you***.

[AV]

Definitely tempted to pick it up again on deep discount somewhere down the line. Those Ultra specs are wild, it has to look bloody spectacular.

 

[elcapitano]

Hopefully Part 2 is out in PC soon. But I got a bad feeling it won't be until season 2 of the show which is probably a good 18 months away minimum

 

[Calverz]

Ready to go.
But where is the previews/reviews?? Also that last trailer Sony released, stating unlocked frame rates didn’t look very smooth…..it will be interesting to see how this runs tomorrow because it’s being ported by ND internal and not nixxes. They are busy porting ratchet.

 

[The Cockatrice]

Will dpouble dip when cheap and part 2 is on pc as well.

 

[LostDonkey]

Love to try this.

But 50 pound, for an 11 year old game.

Yeah, no.

 

[Lucifers Beard]

Interested to know about the 32GB RAM requirement and what real benchmarks look like. I’ve been considering upgrading RAM for a while from 16GB so this should be a good indicator.

 

[Midn1ght]

Love to try this.

But 50 pound, for an 11 year old game.

Yeah, no.

Price is steep on Steam for sure but you can get it for £33.99 on cdkeys.
I'll wait for port reviews before getting it, I hope it's a good one.

11 year old game… not this again

 

[k_trout]

50 for any game on pc ,old or new is bananas, bananas I tell you

 

[Midn1ght]

11 year old game… not this again

Development of The Last of Us began in 2009 so technically it's a 14 years old game and it should be free.

 

[Sybrix]

Dude.... c'mon, it aint £50 if you know where to look

 

[nightmare-slain]

11 year old game… not this again

Yeah, let's not be silly. It's a 9 year old game (almost 10).

Dude.... c'mon, it aint £50 if you know where to look

5 seconds of searching I can find it for £34.

Neil Druckmann was born in 1978 so technically it's a 44 year old game!

Literally just bought it:

 

[nightmare-slain]

£34 is a bit too much for me. Already bought the game on PS3 and again on PS4.

Hopefully Epic give it away for free at some point. If not then I'll wait for it to go down to <£15.

 

[Tomi]

Day one, steam gonna explode tomorrow

 

[nightmare-slain]

Day one, steam gonna explode tomorrow

It'll do well but Steam ain't gonna explode lol. It's an almost 10 year old game.

 

[LaughingStock]

I'm not quadruple dipping, I swear. Unless it's heavy discounted.

 

[J3nga]

Day one, steam gonna explode tomorrow

Nah it ain't gonna break any records. I'll probably sell my PS5 copy for 40 euros and get it for 30 on turkish steam for some money gainzzz.

 

[Slothbeing1209]

Triple Dipping!!!

 

[GHG]

I'm not quadruple dipping, I swear. Unless it's heavy discounted.

I'm ignoring the fact that RE4 and this exist until next year. I will add them (again in the case of RE4) to my PC library but there's no need to at near full prices.

People experiencing these for the first time now though are in for a treat.

 

[Ulysses 31]

Triple Dipping!!!

So you skipped on a version, how can you call yourself a true fan?

/s

 

[SCB3]

I'm not quadruple dipping, I swear. Unless it's heavy discounted.

I get paid that day lol and I bought the fucking remake and Platinumed it

 

[Tiago Rodrigues]

Day one, steam gonna explode tomorrow

The game is #2 on Steam WW, behind RE4 Remake on the day before its release.

This may not even break Spider-Man's players even with the TV show hype.

I wouldn't mind being proven wrong, just so i can post the "no one asked for this remake" meme one more time though.

 

[Thaedolus]

If I had a processor and RAM to meet the ultra spec I’d be in, but since I don’t and I’m busy with RE4, I’ll wait a bit until I do

The PS5 version is one of, if not the best, looking games ever made

 

[mindfreak191]

Love to try this.

But 50 pound, for an 11 year old game.

Yeah, no.

It's a 5 month old Remake of an 11 year old game, a very good one. I would understand your comment if it were the initial Remaster that's getting released, but honestly you're grasping at straws here.

 

[Dr.Morris79]

Love to try this.

Yeah, no.

I dont disagree with you, the rrp price is funny, but when PC folk pay £1200+ for a graphics card then shout about overpriced console ports is just comedy in itself.

Could have paid £500 and played a version of the same game that plays just as well

It's partly the reason I find console ports just shit, really, and not really something to get all that excited about.

Homeworld 3 on the other hand. Cant wait, a true PC game.

 

[SmokedMeat]

The show got me excited to play this again.

Hopefully AMD gives me my key today.

 

[OZ9000]

Does this have DLSS?

 

[Poltz]

Does this have DLSS?

Yes.

Post history shows he’s a PS5 user that didn’t like the first game.

 

[Rea]

Cash grab rip-off garbage.

 

[Edder1]

$60?

I could pick up remaster for £5 and get exactly the same experience. How people paid £70 for this is just beyond me.

 

[GymWolf]

Cash grab rip-off garbage.

The topic for ff7 remake is another one my dude.

 

[Kokoloko85]

interested to see how this runs on steaddeck

 

[Rea]

The topic for ff7 remake is another one my dude.

? Why

 

[GymWolf]

? Why

Because it's a shitty cash grab rip-off garbage way more than tlou remake?!

 

[Rea]

Because it's a shitty cash grab rip-off garbage way more than tlou remake?!

Hmm not really, i don't think they are the same , one has revamped gameplay system and visual graphics are totally overhauled and the story is abit different,(still abit overpriced). The other recycled assets from TLOU2 with increased resolution. And the game already has Remastered. So which one is better? I think FF7 remake slightly better because i much prefer the combat system especially on
"hard mode."

 

[AV]

I could pick up remaster for £5 and get exactly the same experience.

I'm not paying full price either but this isn't true. Moving and shooting overhauled, AI is better, some level design changed, other tweaks like the bow. Again, maybe not worth what they're charging at face value, but more than a facelift.

 

[Midn1ght]

Because it's a shitty cash grab rip-off garbage way more than tlou remake?!

Come on man. I don't consider Tlou Remake a cash grab but FFVII Remake is the definition of what a remake should be about.

Unless you're talking about dividing it into 3 part, then yeah, that's a different topic.

 

[GymWolf]

Come on man. I don't consider Tlou Remake a cash grab but FFVII Remake is the definition of what a remake should be about.

Unless you're talking about dividing it into 3 part, then yeah, that's a different topic.

Dividing in three parts, changing the combat and ruining the story, the definition of what a remake should not do.

 

[GymWolf]

Hmm not really, i don't think they are the same , one has revamped gameplay system and visual graphics are totally overhauled and the story is abit different,(still abit overpriced). The other recycled assets from TLOU2 with increased resolution. And the game already has Remastered. So which one is better?

"hard mode."

I hate both remakes tbh, tlou for not changing enough, ff7 for changing too much.

 

[SlimySnake]

hmmm $42 for this on cdkeys.

Thats $2 more than what I think they shouldve priced it at. Especially considering just incredible the RE4 remake is.

Curious to see how it runs on my 3080. Hilarious to see them suggest that a freaking 2080 Ti is going to run this at PS5 settings. Looks like another Uncharted Collection situation.

 

[Edder1]

Those changes are minor and should not warrant anything more than a $5 or $10 max as DLC. Add to that visual overhaul and I'll give you $30. I can even understand £40, but asking $60 or $70 is downright criminal.

How do you expect this to be sold as $5-$10 DLC on PC??

 

[Tomi]

This will finance TLOU 3, so buy it guys so we can get a third one

 

[OverHeat]

Preload done!!!

 

[Klik]

Those who never played it are in for a big treat. I played it on PS3, PS4 and PS5. Amazing game that comes once in decade.

Can't wait to play it with mouse & keyboard on PC..
