Expect a 'total overhaul' of the beloved original

Unfortunately leaked just hours before its official reveal as part of Summer Game Fest, Sony and Naughty Dog have announced that The Last of Us Part I is coming to the PS5 on September 2, 2022 and to the PC on a later date.

The upcoming release is said to be a “total overhaul” of the original experience and will receive various improvements to visuals, controls, accessibility, and much more. The PS5 hardware will be fully utilized, and the use of 3D audio and haptic feedback will make the experience much more immersive.
