This update comes on the heels of the most recent patch for The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered on PC, which was released a few days ago. This patch introduced a major fix to Downtown Seattle, prevented some crashes from happening, and improved the game’s UI.

Unlike the first entry of The Last of Us, which was ported to PC in a very unstable state, the sequel had a pretty solid launch. The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered received positive reviews from most critics, and it currently stands with an average score of 89 on OpenCritic. Reviewers have praised the title for continuing to be one of the most gorgeous games ever made, having a compelling story, good PC performance, and not requiring a PSN account to play on Steam.

Metrics taken from Steam also indicate that The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered has been a big hit on PC. Despite being a port of a somewhat old PS5 game, the title achieved a peak concurrent player count of 30,690 during its launch weekend. While these numbers are not as big as the first entry in the franchise, which peaked at around 36,500 players, it’s still an impressive mark, especially when considering that most gamers would have played the first The Last of Us before diving into this one.
