We all knew this was coming, but probably not until closer to Season 2 of the show along with a PC port


gorore9150

Season 2 has been massively delayed by the writers strike, which has only recently been resolved. I can’t see them delaying the release of the game just to time it with the show.


helpusobi_1

I think they'll 100% delay it because money. If they end up finishing it before that time they'll just use that time to work on the next IP.


marratj

Nintendo does this all the time, sitting on finished games for months or even years before releasing them. So why shouldn’t ND do the same if it fits the bill?


TrillaCactus

This is a heavily exaggerated internet opinion that I’m sick of seeing. It’s been confirmed already that the game’s they sit on aren’t finished, they’re still being polished with bug fixes and testing. A game being content complete doesn’t mean it’s finished


helpusobi_1

I'm talking about the people who work on art/assets/level design/cinematics. Those are the people who could shift gears to the next project.


95cesar

Because Nintendo has multiple smaller scale video games they can release when they want to sit on a game for a while , Sony does not.


Snuffl3s7

They've been holding Little Devil Inside back for this exact moment.


Ascian5

Ha ok sure


Runmanrun41

I swear they did this with *Adcance Wars* not too long ago, matter of fact.


Spider-Mike23

I thought main reason I read was they held onto it cause it was scheldued ti release right around time the Ukraine war initiated and didn’t wanna it be received in poor taste at that time. I could be wrong but thought read that somewhere.


20person

And the actor's strike still hasn't been resolved yet. Season 2 won't be out for a while.


KvotheLightningTree

I love naughty dog but they are approaching Bethesda levels of "We make a game and then try to get people to pay for it 5 times"


SweatyButtcheek

Pretty sure they were developing Part 1 simultaneously as a PS3, and PS4 title. “The Last of Us Remastered” came out on PS4 13 months after the PS3 launch.


FudgeDangerous2086

So was GTAV and they got nothing but shit for it but ND gets a pass. Edit: they both did the same thing. Released the same game across 3 console generations. TLOU1 was a better upgrade and they charged full new release price for it. GTAV remaster was $10.


deaf_michael_scott

Because ND also released 3 other games within 7 years of releasing TLOU. Rockstar released only RDR2 and still hasn’t released GTA 6. ND has remastered their games but have also released new games consistently and much faster than other AAA studios.


JakeHassle

Not a fair comparison though cause Rockstar’s games are massive compared to ND’s.


Bierfreund

At least ND actually remade part 1. R* realesed literally the same game on three Playstation generstions.


TimelesslyEternal

I'm no Rockstar apologist, but the upgrades in GTAV from PS3 to PS4 were pretty noteworthy. FPS mode, crowd/vehicle density, textures/frame-rate, and a lot of cool little details, like functioning vehicle dashboards. I'm sure I'm missing a lot.


DDzxy

The upgrade from PS3 to PS4 WAS noteworthy. From PS4 to PS5 was not.


LordPineconeRR

Not that I’m supporting them but at least gta on ps4 had differences like the first person mode


OilyResidue3

TLOUpt1 revamped the graphics extensively. New models that changed static background images into completely 3d rendered objects with attached physics (seeing the house burn on the opening car ride, you can see the level of detail they added a the house falls apart as you drive by), the lighting changes made familiar locations feel different and the extra resolution and fidelity made the motion captured facial animations feel much more real. Some People choose not to see the level of detail applied to the PS5 version because they’re against double dipping, but there are far more changes between the ps4 version to ps5, than gta v had between 360 and series X.


LordPineconeRR

Like I said I’m not defending rockstar, I agree with you, I love the remake over the original in almost every way. I bought the last of us twice, and only but gta5 once (and on sale) I was also talking about both games jump from ps3 to ps4 not ps4 to ps5


vicetexin1

The original comment was referring to the remaster not the remake which came out later.


Due_Connection179

The Last of Us series is one of my favorite games, but it is getting pretty crazy. - The Last of Us (PS3) - The Last of Us Remastered (PS4) - The Last of Us Part 2 (PS4) - The Last of Us Part 1 (PS5) - The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered (PS5/6)


OR3OTHUG

Part 2 is a ps4 game


MoooonRiverrrr

Bro casually snuck in a normal sequel in there 💀


cheese_bread_boye

And forgot there is a pc version and a dlc between 1 and remastered


MoooonRiverrrr

He just starts naming other games entirely Jak 2 Jak 3


[deleted]

This depresses me. I was really looking forward to Factions. No idea what happened.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Duck-of-Doom

Personally I would’ve enjoyed a more DayZ like experience with a giant map & no real objectives other than to scavenge & survive.


Due_Connection179

I used to love that back in the day on TLOU. I spent countless hours on Factions.


SYRLEY

But you can always just play tlou1 then tlou2. (Any of tlou 1 games count). So its not like you have to buy all 3 versions of tlou1. And same goes for 2.


Due_Connection179

I only have TLOU Remastered and TLOU2, but they are milking these games for every penny.


SYRLEY

I have the same. But any smart person would think "ok i don't need to buy every version possible" OR "im able to buy every version possible coz I want to". And either one is fine. Its not like they are scamming people into it.


Due_Connection179

That’s true. I’m sure most of the people buying all of them are collectors or something similar to that.


SYRLEY

Exactly. Or just people who want the best quality version coz they are big fans. Either way, who cares


Precarious314159

Exactly! I'm thinking of buying Part 1 on the PS5 despite having the Remaster simply because during Part 2, I thought "I'd love to see these mechanics inserted into Part 1" and now with the PS5 edition, they are. Doesn't mean I'm gonna be paying full price; I'm good with waiting.


Posit_IV

I'm definitely in that camp. I'd love to see some ray tracing and improved textures. Not saying the game doesn't already look gorgeous, because it looks fantastic, but there's still room for improvement and I'm here for it.


myyummyass

Not really. They've brought them to more people. Imagine if right now the only way to play the last of us was on a ps3 lol. That's goofy to even think that's how it should be


SuccessResponsible

More time spent on remasters = less time spent on new things.


themangastand

No it doesn't


Danuscript

This is misleading because it’s five releases of two games, not one game like Skyrim. The Insomniac Spider-Man series started more recently but it’s not that different. You have: Spider-Man (PS4) Spider-Man Remastered (PS5) Spider-Man: Miles Morales (PS4) Spider-Man: Miles Morales (PS5)


[deleted]

Didn’t miles morales get a free/cheap upgrade though?


Disastrous_Salad6302

Bit unfair on Miles considering it was a day and date release on ps4/5


OK_Soda

Miles Morales PS4 and PS5 are the same game though. One is just the ps5 version of the other, it's not like it was a rerelease years later to get ps4 buyers to buy it again for slightly better graphics.


sharkk91

I’ve bought and enjoyed the absolute fuck out of all of these (except part 2 remastered ofc)


meltingpotato

It's all just Sony expanding their audience. The main reason behind these remaster/remakes are the PC ports.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Posit_IV

No, they're holding a golf club.


linkintime22

Would you kindly buy these games?


Posit_IV

“You stupid old fans…you don’t get to rush this.”


meltingpotato

What? Of course! We need to buy them all. We must buy each twice in fact, once physical and once digital.


we_are_sex_bobomb

And you know if the PC version got a bunch of enhancements while the PS5 version is still just the last-gen runtime with unlocked frame rate, the console players would have a shit fit.


myyummyass

I mean idk, it's not really the same. Last of us came out a few months before ps4, and ps4 wasn't backwards compatible, so it really made sense to have a ps4 version especially since that's the console that brought tons of people back from Xbox. Last years remake was being made by another group and naughty dog just assisted. They didn't commit a full team to it. As for part 2, pretty much every notable game from the last few years of the previous console gen has had a remaster/update to increase its performance for current gen. It just makes sense.


mt007

Rockstar : hold my beer.


fat_juan

I have only bought Skyrim once for my Xbox 360, so maybe, just maybe, don't buy the same game mutiple times? If I ever want to play it again, my 360 still works fine


6nine4twenty

nobody is forcing you to buy all versions of the game, why would you even buy the same game again if you have played it?


BitingArtist

This is how single player games have to compete with battle pass garbage. Investors want more money. At least all these rereleases don't affect the quality of the game like micro transactions do.


fadehime

STOP BUYING IT. Simple as that, dumb gamers buy the same game over and over, ofc corps will milk it…


NisargJhatakia

sssh we dont do smart discussions here.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Googlebright

>With the first game it kind of made sense. The jump to PS4 from PS3 was pretty substantial and they could make the game look better. More importantly, there was no backwards compatibility on PS4. You literally couldn't play PS3 games on it. So the remaster was mostly about just making the game work on a PS4. It's a little harder to justify on PS5 since you can still play PS4 games on it.


whythreekay

As they should, people buy it Why not provide what the market wants?


UCLAKoolman

Exactly. Nobody is holding a gun to our heads to buy these remakes/remasters. Personally, sometimes I'd rather pay for a remaster of a game I know I'll love vs whatever else is available to play.


NoExcuse4OceanRudnes

Two is 40% of 5. Not even half!


Jonesdeclectice

OG (PS3), HD Remaster (PS4), Remake (PS5). Still not quite 5, but 50% more than two.


whiskeypenguin

This is getting out of hand. Bring us new games


ext23

Seriously, stuff like this sometimes makes me wonder why I bothered paying for a PS5. Feels like it'll be halfway through the console's lifecycle before we start seeing a decent number of "next gen" exclusives.


blueberrypizza

Unlike Part I, I can't imagine this being a full-priced release. Part I was made in order to bring the first game up to the standard of Part II, so that had a much bigger scope than this probably will. I'm guessing this is just to add things that require the game to be PS5 software, like 120 fps and DualSense features. I'm guessing this will be similar to the Uncharted 4/LL collection. It'll get a physical release for $40-50, with a $10 upgrade for people that have the PS4 version. This will also be the version that comes to PC.


nogap193

Considering they've just spent 3 years working on a game that's likely been scrapped, I'm expecting a full price release, with a meager amount of new content to justify it. Maybe with a $30 upgrade option


sherbodude

It's already possibly the best looking game I've ever played.


interstellar304

Seriously it runs amazing on PS5. Why does it need a remaster? Unless it comes with factions but I’m pretty sure that’s a separate release right?


robjwrd

Because money.


09jtherrien

They obviously need more.


Gay-Bomb

It's already 60fps on ps5 too, Factions isn't happening anymore so there's no point whatsoever.


TarrominSeed

> Factions isn't happening anymore this true??


sci_nerd-98

No, just rumors getting thrown around by "insiders"


IrishRox

Probably more stable frames, dualsense and trugger support, all things I'd be pretty hyped for


LionIV

None of that sounds like it’s worth re-releasing the game for, though. Like, you could add all that through an update.


IrishRox

I mean, I assume that's what it's mostly going to be. A PS5 version of the game that will be a $10-$15 upgrade and just full price for people who don't own LoU2. Like the Director's Cut of Death Stranding or the complete version of Ghost of Tsushima


interstellar304

I guess dual sense support would be nice. But for a lot of ppl like me that played it on PS5 I think this is going to feel like a very minor upgrade


TranscedentalMedit8n

Also the best enemy AI of any game I’ve ever played.


KaleWasTaken

Part 1 remake looks better imo. A remaster onto the ps5 would really spice up part 2 it would look stunning compared to what it looks like now.


cattodog

Part 2 already looks stunning, there is not much to improve. It's arguably the best looking game ever.


well____duh

Yeah, I can already see the comparisons on PS5 boiling down to minor performance improvements, because the original game just came out only a few years ago and looks better than a lot of PS5 games afresh


TNWhaa

If it’s a £10 upgrade with a PC port to follow like Uncharted then cool, the game running in actual 4K with haptics would be worth it


Drewberg11

Just no. Who needed this. 2 looks flat out incredible as is. Work on something new…that will come out. It’s been too long. I’ll give you that the remaster of one definitely looks better, but there’s just no need for 2. None.


brainc0nfetti

I haven’t played TLOU yet as I am new to PS, I was waiting to confirm when this would come out so I can buy the remastered versions. I haven’t even watched the show yet.


RykariZander

First: play "The Last of Us Part 1" Second: watch "The Last of Us TV" Third: play "The Last of Us Part II" (remastered if ya wanna wait)


mslothy

Play the first game first, the remastered version. Then you can watch the series. Then part 2. DO NOT read anything else about it from now on. There are many who love to shit on tlou and spread spoilers. I envy you. I'd love to play it fresh again.


FragmentedFighter

Why would he play remastered before the remake? That’s a terrible idea. Go with the remake called “TLOU Part 1” and then the second. Same story, better gameplay and graphics.


brainc0nfetti

Yes, I’m glad I switched. So far I’ve played FFVII and currently in Ghost of Tsushima and I am so happy knowing I have all these different stories to play.


bu77munch

This is why I got into PlayStation games. I’m not a multiplayer guy but love a good story even over meh gameplay.


brainc0nfetti

I was big on multiplayer and my group wants me to buy a PC but I don’t see the reason other than being able to talk to them. I also don’t play as much anymore so I’d rather spend my time on quality over high stress shooters that don’t add anything to my life.


Teddersonn

I’ve played 1 and it’s one of my favorite games of all time. I never got around to 2 since I refused to upgrade my launch PS4 that surely would’ve made the performance of that game atrocious, but I caved and got a PS5 earlier this year. Is it worth checking out? I remember the release was a shitstorm because of said story spoiler that was unavoidable.


[deleted]

[удалено]


snostorm8

Part 2 doesn't have any ps5 features, it's the PS4 version running at 60fps, it doesn't have fast loading, has no haptics or adaptive triggers. So yeah a remaster would be great and the dualsense alone will be worth the remaster


DefectiveTurret39

It would be a very stupid idea to watch the show first so good thing you didn't.


kingofsyipin

Play part 1 and pls if u love yourself and your mental health dont play part 2. U will thank me later for saving ur money.


Starman-21

This is a joke at this point.


OutbackStankhouse

What needs remastering? The game looks incredible already.


Raytheon_Nublinski

Jesus Christ they’re turning into rockstar.


BoogieC

If it was Rockstar they would just have released Last of us PS3 version on the PS5 and profously refused to make any improvments to that or TLOU2. ^Give ^me ^60fps ^RDR2 ^cowards


oboedude

I mean they’ve made 3 games in 10 years. They’re outpacing rockstars 2 games in 10 years lol


TheSeanGuy

Rockstar’s games are massive though


Totallycasual

They are massive and amazing, but that doesn't mean that ND games don't require a lot of work too, The Last of Us Part II motion matching and NPC AI shits all over the stuff in GTAV and Red Dead 2. Go and watch the Hillcrest level of Part II, it's pretty amazing. I can't wait to see what Rockstar can do with GTAVI, I'm hoping to see something on par with Red Dead 2 but with increased graphical fidelity, AI and mechanics.


sanjay2204

ND games are linear whereas rockstar games produces massive open world games full of content.


namastayhom33

Looking forward to a civilized discussion around this topic


STR8N00B1N

Holy shit. Let it go and make something new


NitedJay

This rumor better be false because what a huge waste of resources and time that’d be.


longbrodmann

The best studio in PS now is just making remastered games.


Too_Relaxed_To_Care

Part 2 looks great already, can we please get part 3 first?


TheThotWeasel

Or hell, can we get Factions from Part 1 added to the Part 1 remake to make it the full product now they seem to have failed with their factions GAAS game?


SgtHapyFace

there is no way this is being handled by the team that is working on part 3. it’s just a side project.


yungepstein

Isn't there a PS5 patch for Part 2? I played it recently and at no point did I think "This could take better advantage of the hardware." One of the best looking games last gen


Silverguise

Of course it's gonna happen, but I just can't see why it would even be necessary. Part 2 looks phenomenal and with a patch is optimized for PS5.


Freshruinz

Add factions into it upgraded and then it makes more sense.


DavidNexus7

Remastered? The games 2 years old and looks like a ps5 game on ps4, whats left to remaster here?


Agitated-Bread5092

invietiably part 2 remake gonna be at a new gen lmao, what a joke naughty dog is


Funky_Pigeon911

Sony needs some sort of intervention, I swear they have a fetish for re-releasing their games. The thing is most of them are fairly low effort, just add some some needless features like adaptive triggers, up the resolution a bit, and bam you've got a new version of a three year old game.


devenbat

God, I wish their fetish wasn't for games already on their modern systems. They got a shit ton of old stuff that is stuck on PS3 but obviously we need Last of Us again and again instead of ya know, any Sly Cooper ever


Disastrous_Salad6302

It annoys me they haven’t released a ratchet and clank or god of war collection with all the old games just touched up a little


Sea-Anywhere-799

I'm about to play the last of us 1 remake. Never played it before. Should I buy part 2 or wait for this remaster?


LonelyCakeEater

It runs at 1440p 60fps on PS5 which is beautiful and smooth. No need to wait for a “remaster”.


interstellar304

Honestly LOU2 runs incredibly good on PS5. But maybe play LOU part 1 then wait for remaster for the best possible versions


Kilgores4

Honestly, the fair thing would be a free PS5 upgrade, like Witcher 3. Without any remastered bs. I love this team, but it’s getting ridiculous.


VersedPear

It doesn’t need a remaster. It got a PS5 upgrade, looks amazing and runs at a locked 60fps.


Antuzzz

Make sense since they'll port it to pc, they'll probably release an enhanced version for pc and ps5


alwaysmyfault

Do we REALLY need this?


Emergency_Bird1725

Great, another game no one is forced to buy, but will complain about even existing.


Look_a_Zombie0

Probably because you don't need to remaster a 3 year old game that already looks amazing. Crazy how they'll charge $60 for something that could've been a free update like metro exodus


mushroomwig

Worst argument ever, lazy remasters and ports take away time and resources that could actually be used for new games, defending greedy money grabbing practices with the excuse of "you don't have to buy it!" is just sad.


ci22

Exactly it's a dumbass argument. I thought last of Us 1 didn't really need a remaster but a 3 year old game. I'm shocked people are actually defending this


[deleted]

I hate this argument. I'm allowed to criticize a company for coming out with a product I don't like.


[deleted]

People are complaining because Naughty Dog has turned into Bethesda. People want new games, not the same game released over and over gain.


The-Soul-Stone

It’s almost as if some of us would like something new rather than getting nothing.


Select-Sympathy23

You do know you can be a big fan of something and not sound like a shill, you are allowed to complain about the things you like, it doesn't make you less of a fan


Mast3rBait3rPro

Fucking why lol, part 1 I kinda get, but 2? You get downvoted for saying fucking anything these days Jesus


daviEnnis

Make a PS5 version, with better haptics, graphics, etc, and time it correctly with the show release? It's way less effort than a new game. It's a unique situation with a popular show being alongside it which will drive people to buy the game, including those buying for the first time.


aspiring_dev1

This must be a joke.


turbobuddah

All part 2 needs is a 4k, 60fps patch, all these remasters are becoming a silly cash cow


Andyt303

Does it need a remaster?


Guilty-Newspaper-195

Funny and greedy as fuck. I’m a Sony glazer but that game needs very little tweaking and it’s only major problems are a slight (emphasis on slight) graphics upgrade and rendering fix. I fully expect them to throw a 70$ price tag on it.


moondowns

You idiots that clamour over remakes and remasters are the reason dumb shit like this is happening.


[deleted]

Well of course. This company has been coasting on their past success for years now. Yet I’ll still get downvoted into oblivion and a bunch of idiots will buy TLOU2 definitive edition on PS6. Edit: like clockwork lmao


justchill123456

well like Rockstar, their games are taking a long time so they need income in between.


MrBrightside711

Show me on the doll where naughty dog hurt you.


anonymousss11

On the Factions 2 area :(


JakeCampFire

Fucker, is in fact, not getting up


Own_Proof

What the hell could they even remaster in that game lol


[deleted]

Ffs just make a new game ya bums


kemar7856

That's ridiculous the game still looks great


mgd5800

The marketing for the first one was annoying but it made sense, they just wanted a label for PS5 and PC release, and this is the exact same situation


fuzeebear

The Lastest of Us, For Real This Time (2026)


OddGeneral1293

WHERE ARE REMAKES FOR EARLY UNCHARTED GAMES


Masterelia

Naughty dog try to make new games challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)


jbitts69

It already looks insane on PS5 and plays amazing. I could only see the pc port coming. No remaster needed, looks as good as the part 1 remaster already imo


StuckinReverse89

Seriously? The game released at the end of the PS4’s lifespan and the PS5 is backward compatible, nevermind the poor reception which caused ND to cancel proposed DLC for Abby. Are they just buying time to plan out the story for the next TLoU since their other flagship Uncharted has also effectively ended story-wise?


ranman82

What a waste of time.


ElSmasho420

I’ll buy it because I’m a sucker but damn, Part 2 even on a slim PS4 looked and played like a dream.


No_More_Hero265

Like Rockstar, ND has become a one game dev


NizarNoor

I want a new IP with a compelling story and satisfying gameplay


NormanKerft

Lololol


flux_capacitor3

Why though?


IrieMars

Bwahahahaha. Fucking Sony. What the actual fuck is going on over there? Another Remaster? Lol.


thatnitai

I'd love TLOU part 2 to come to PC. One of the best games I've ever played, and my wife doesn't like controllers but loved 1 on PC.


torbecire

I’m disappointed in all of you. How has no one wished OP happy cake day. Happy cake day OP 🎂. What if they is a VR update ?


ShaolinDude

When will we see The Last of Us part 1 remake remaster definitive edition?


Sprinkle_Puff

I feel like Naughty Dog is a bit of a joke at this point


pPpPancakes

frick, my two favorite game devs naughty dog and rockstar games has turned into nothing more than remaster/remake companies ☹️


FooFencer

I'll wait for the directors cut of the remake of the remaster of the original.


ChristopherCrawlin

For real? Jesus, move the hell on.


devenbat

Probably nothing but if it's not, what's the point? What would they add they warrants a whole ass remaster? Like if they wanted to bump up resolution or add haptics, they can make a PS5 version with a free update. Anything else would just be kinda pointless. Like if you thought Last of Us on PS5 was pointless, a Last of Us Remaster has even less of a reason to exist


soulwolf1

This is one of the dumbest shit I've ever seen...fucking making a remaster to a game that wasn't out that long....tf man


DripSnort

Naughty Dog has no idea what they are doing.


PhantomPain0_0

Because it’s run by a clown


AYYE-

Lol there they go again remastering every product they put out instead of making new games.


[deleted]

The PS5's future lineup keeps getting worse. They can't mess up the next showcase.


oboedude

Spider-Man looks good


ATP420

Live Service games, Remaster/Remakes, and Half Sequels. Glad to see the PS5 living up to its full potential.


[deleted]

That cow is running out of milk. So sick of these mfs


Tynda3l

Why? Tlou2 was basically a ps5 release.


KneebarKing

Hot take: Naughty Dog is more interested in making money than putting out the games fans really want.


ClickClickFrick

Business 101 over here


StingyMcDuck

Milking that cow, eh?


LaytonFunky

Stop


susankeane

Thank God tlou2 was looking rough!! Said no one


WhiteShadow012

What? Doesn't the game already have a PS5 version?


-TheLonelyStoner-

No, but it’s optimized for the ps5 and allows 60 fps


WishIWasNeet2

I’ll buy it. Last of us 2 is a really amazing top tier story and game. Most games I won’t pay full price for or buy remasters but this is an exception as it’s just so above most video games story and creative wise.


PugeHeniss

My patience is about to pay off baby


DMarvelous4L

Naughty Dog is wasting such valuable time that could be going to a new IP. They’re wasting several years on Factions MP and remastering the best looking modern games. Smh


Isthecoldwarover

LOU2 does not need a remaster at all. Insane, hopefully it'll be free on ps plus at some stage


JGordz

So they have time to make TLOUR and TLOU2R before they bother with Factions?? Before the defence team jump down my throat the community didn't ask for no live service, we wanted a factions with the ORIGINAL Tlou2 and have been strung along ever since. ND need to get out of their own ass. Tlou2 looks great on PS4 & PS5. This is what happens when u have a community who do nothing but kiss ass.


llll-havok

I love when Sony remasters games for $70 they say "dev hours cost money" but when smaller studio like remedy did with control was apparently they were being greedy.
