Sony Finally Reveals The Last Of Us Part II Remastered PC Release Date

Sony has finally revealed the PC release date of The Last Of Us Part II Remastered.

As they share in their latest trailer, the PC version is coming this April 3, 2025. That makes it a clear full year and two months from the date that Sony released the game on PlayStation 5, this January 19.

At the time, Sony offered an upgrade path so that players who already had the original The Last Of Us Part II, and were playing it on PlayStation 5 via backwards compatibility, could pay less than full retail price to just get the native PlayStation 5 version. We reported that Sony actually checked and refunded PlayStation owners who accidentally bought the same game twice as well.

We definitely knew when this remaster was first revealed that it would also make its way to PC. But it seems, because of the particulars of this title, Sony did not hesitate to bring the game to PC sooner than most.

The original The Last Of Us Part II released on the PlayStation 4 in June 19, 2020. While that does make this an older game, it’s not quite as old as the other Sony titles that received PC ports. But more than that, Naughty Dog had been particularly relentless in the cycle to release The Last Of Us games and ports in close proximity to each other.

So when the remaster came out, the discourse among gamers was that Sony was somehow cheating their fans, by getting them to play the same game multiple times too quickly. And there is merit to the argument that there is little justification to remaster a game that recent, especially when there are a ton of popular successful games in Sony’s back catalog that have yet to receive the treatment.

On top of that, there’s certainly a small irony in how Sony did make sure that The Last Of Us Part II Remastered would get PlayStation 5 Pro enhancements. Without a shadow of a doubt, Sony’s assigned PC ports studio Nixxes would get the info they needed to make the most out of PSSR. In a matter of months, they will also have to get the game optimized on a host of other upscalers, including DLSS, FSR, and XeSS.

On PlayStation Blog, Naughty Dog revealed that Nixxes and Iron Galaxy worked on this PC port. Of course, it will have all the enhancements and bonuses from the PlayStation 5 remaster, but we’ll see if they can ensure it doesn’t launch on PC as poorly as The Last Of Us Part I Remastered did.
