The Last of Us Part 1's PC Port Delayed 3 Weeks
Naughty Dog has announced that the PC version of The Last of Us Part 1 will be delayed by a few weeks from its original March 3 release date to March 28.
“Hearing your love for the HBO adaptation, seeing your beautiful Photo Mode shots, and learning about how the world and characters our studio created nearly a decade ago continue to reach new and old fans alike floors us every day,” Naughty Dog said in a statement (below).
“We know a lot of you have been revisiting the story that started it all with The Last of Us Part 1 on [the] PlayStation 5 console, and we realized many of you have been excited to jump in — some for the first time — when Part 1 hits PC."

The studio continued: “We want to make sure that The Last of Us Part 1 PC debut is in the best shape possible. These additional few weeks will allow us to ensure this version of The Last of Us lives up to your, and our, standards.”
The HBO adaptation of The Last of Us has proved incredibly popular and critically well-received. Its success helped drive sales for The Last of Us Part 1 on PS5 in the UK by 238%, and the PS4 remaster also saw a 322% sales increase.
Naughty Dog also said recently that it's focusing on The Last of Us franchise for the time being and moving on from Uncharted. The studio is currently working on a multiplayer game set in The Last of Us’s world and more information should be revealed later this year.
In IGN’s The Last of Us Part 1 review, we said, “A gorgeous and well-honed remake of one of the biggest boppers in the PlayStation pantheon, The Last of Us Part 1 is the best way to play — or replay — Naughty Dog’s esteemed survival classic.”
