Introduction

"The Last of Us Part II Remastered" brings Naughty Dog's acclaimed post-apocalyptic narrative to PC, after being a PS5 exclusive for a year. Set in a fractured America years after a deadly outbreak, the game follows Ellie on a harrowing journey of revenge, loss, and moral complexity. With its emotionally charged storytelling and grounded world-building, TLOU Part II Remastered deepens the legacy of the series with added polish and expanded features.



The remaster supports a wide range of PC features including unlocked framerates, ultrawide monitor support, and scalable graphics settings. Visual upgrades include higher-resolution textures, improved draw distances, and enhanced ambient lighting. Players can fine-tune the experience with support for NVIDIA DLSS, AMD FSR, and Intel XeSS, ensuring smooth performance across a variety of systems. There's also support for frame generation from both AMD and NVIDIA. There is no support for ray tracing though, which is surprising.
