The Last of Us is being patched to version 1.07 on the PlayStation 3 this week, and its developers at Naughty Dog have listed the changes headed to the game.
Weighing in at 151MB, the title update was released alongside the Grounded Bundle DLC that hit the US PSN on Tuesday, and introduces the Grounded difficulty level for the single-player portion of the game, alongside various multiplayer fixes and changes.
The DLC, which is separate from the patch, includes Grounded mode, four new multiplayer maps, fresh weapons and additional survival skills. The various items can be purchased as part of the season pass bundle or individually.
Here’s an overview of what’s in store:
