There are exciting rumors circulating in the gaming community that The Last Of Us 2 Remastered may come to PlayStation 5 in 2024. While the game is currently playable on PS5 thanks to backwards (or in this case forward) compatibility, two new rumors suggest a special remastered edition will be coming.
This may mean The Last of Us Part 2 good news for PC players too
According to Video Games Chronicle, PlayStationSize has detected data showing that The Last Of Us 2 will be released locally for PlayStation 5. While it’s not explicitly labeled as a remaster, fans are hopeful that this isn’t just a simple port but rather an improved version of the acclaimed game.
The original game, which launched for PlayStation 4 in 2020, has only been available for a small amount of time between launch and today, making a remaster a potentially exciting news for fans.
Another rumor, shared by user folyqa on Reddit, concerns Hungarian tech journalist Péter Birkás, who claims that Sony sent press emails requesting codes for The Last Of Us 2 Remastered. Notably, Péter claims that this reimagined version was designed only for PlayStation 5, with no mention of a PC version, at least early in the process.
This information is in line with Sony’s strategy to eventually bring its first-party games to PC to maximize revenues. Interestingly, the discussion around a possible PC release for The Last Of Us 2 Remastered raises questions about Sony’s evolving approach to cross-platform availability. Although it is known that Sony plans to release its games on PC, the timing of these releases remains a matter of debate.
Available information suggests that Sony is strategically positioning itself to simultaneously release PlayStation 5 games on PC, aiming to capture a wider audience, especially among gamers who do not own a PlayStation 5 console.
Hopefully The Last of Us Part 2 will indeed arrive in 2024, and will come to PC shortly after that (probably early 2025). What are you thinking? Please don’t forget to share your thoughts with us in the comments.
