The Last of Us Part 1 PS5 update adds HBO-themed cosmetics for Ellie

eurogamer.net:

A new update for The Last of Us Part 1 on PlayStation 5 adds new HBO-themed cosmetics for Ellie, along with a host of bug fixes and general improvements.

This patch, which is live now, adds two T-shirts for players to dress Ellie up in. The first of these shirts is a blue number themed on HBO's The Wire. You can see how it looks in the header image above.

The second, meanwhile, is a tribute to The Last of Us' recent TV adaptation. Please note, if you have not watched the show yet, there is a minor spoiler ahead.

Thanks to this update, Ellie can now sport a Mortal Kombat 2 T-shirt in The Last of Us Part 1's PS5 remake. Those who have watched the show will know that, unlike in the game, Ellie is a fan of Mortal Kombat and Mileena.

This was one of the smaller deviations the show made from the game's original source material, where Ellie instead knew of a game called The Turning, and a character named Angel Knives.

You can see how this shirt looks below.

In addition to these new shirts, this patch also addresses several bugs and improvements.

Among my personal favourites, enemies will no longer beg for their lives when they can't be easily reached by the player and shooting a doctor in the Firefly lab will no longer make them invincible to flamethrowers.

Meanwhile, baseball bats will now do the same damage against Clickers as other two-handed melee weapons, and the developers have fixed the issue that could see companion characters die in combat at unintended times.
