PC gamers finally have the chance to experience Joel and Ellie’s first adventure with the arrival of The Last of Us Part 1 on PC. Starting today, Steam and Epic Game Store players will be able to play the enhanced version of the first game, following its debut on PlayStation 5 late last year.
If you are one of the veterans of the sector, surely you remember the launch of The Last os Uf for PlayStation 3 back in 2013. It was the last great game of that generation and made millions of players fall in love with it.
You and Steam have been waiting for this moment for almost 10 years
It must be said that HBO Max was the first to revive the fever for the original game. The series starring Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey reached unimaginable heights of popularity and success. For HBO, it is the biggest premiere in the history of its platform.
Sony, who know a lot about this, planned a time management that neither Steven Spielberg shooting an action-adventure movie. A month after finishing the series and with dozens of potential new players, they launch the port for PC (Steam and Epic Games).
And something very important in the whole equation: the game that comes to PC is the Remake version of The Last of Us. That is, the version made from scratch with the graphics engine of The Last of Us Part 2. It looks better than ever, it plays better than ever.
The Remake was very much liked at its launch for PS5 in September 2022 and now wants to arrive, several months later, to PC to reach an audience that could never enjoy the adventures of Joel and Ellie because it was exclusive to PlayStation. First it came out on PS3, then on PS5 and, finally, on PS5.
Sony’s policy, previously hermetic and distant from games on different platforms, has changed radically in recent years to reach a potential audience of millions of people who wanted to play its exclusives… but without buying a PlayStation.
If you want to live for the first -or for the thirteenth- one of the best stories in the world of computer games. Today, April 28, 2023, is the first day in history that you can do so.
