The Last of Us Part 1 PC specs run the gamut from fairly reasonable to restrictive ultra and performance recommendations. Naughty Dog announced the specs with an infographic in a new PlayStation Blog post and outlined some of the PC-specific features in store.
The Last of Us PC port supports 4K resolutions and wide and ultrawide setups, along with support for AMD FSR 2.2 and Nvidia DLSS Super Resolution. You can plug in your DualSense and get the same haptic feedback as you’d get from the PS5 too.
The minimum to hit 30 fps and 720p is a GeForce 1050Ti or GTX 970 with an i7 processor and 16GB of RAM. The recommended settings require a substantially more powerful graphics card. Naughty Dog says you need an RTX 3060 or RX5800, though performance mode requirements are a bit more forgiving.
You can get by with an RTX 2080Ti in performance mode, though Naughty Dog bumped the recommended RAM to 32GB if you want to hit 60fps at 1440p.
Ultra requirements are much steeper. To get 60fps at 4K, you should have a GTX 4080 or RX 7900XT, both of which would set you back by nearly $1,000. That’s just for the top-of-the-line settings, though. You can tinker with quality and adjust the display to your system’s needs.
The Last of Us Part 1 launches March 28, 2023, on Steam and the Epic Games Store. Naughty Dog previously promised Steam Deck support, though the latest blog post didn’t mention whether the horror game will run on Valve’s handheld at launch.
