The PC port of Naughty Dog’s beloved game is still plagued by technical woes despite several hotfixes, so Steam is making it easier for players to get their money back.
What a week it’s been for The Last of Us Part 1 port on PC. Upon launch, players were reporting countless instances of crashes, issues with maxing out RAM and just a general lack of polish. Three things we’ve not come to expect from PlayStation given its previous PC offerings such as Horizon Zero Dawn and God of War – even we experienced more than a few technical hiccups on our day one stream last week. Naughty Dog has been quick to act, yet player patience is teetering on the edge.
Naughty Dog took to Twitter yesterday to try and temper the ongoing outcry, writing in a post that “we will have a new hotfix live for The Last of Us Part I on PC tomorrow, and a patch on Friday” before going on to explain that the Steam Deck version is also being looked at. This post comes mere days after Naughty Dog previously released update v1.0.1.5, which focused on “stability and performance improvements”. However, v1.0.1.5 wasn’t intended to resolve all of the PC port’s issues, hence why a hotfix is rolling out today with a larger patch coming on Friday.
