The Last of Us Part II

There’s a new rogue lite mode or something included too. A few new Levels not included in the original. And skins etc too I think.

Edit. A tenner is neither here nor there honestly.

The new mode looks very good plus all the other stuff I am happy with the upgrade price and I’ll happily play through the campaign again.

Can you preload the £10 upgrade?

Nope apparently it unlocks when it releases.

Ugh. Got a half day tomorrow so want it loaded and ready when I get home at 10:30

I’ve actually got 2 installed hoping it’ll be an upgrade install rather than a fresh one - wishful thinking! Finished 1 tonight so I am good to go (pending having to download the whole thing again).

Yeah.. I think it’s a separate SKU, so probably a separate download rather than a patch.. but it may be worth a shot!

Got it downloading. Something like 70gb.

Same

Last night I thought i would quickly try no return mode just for a quick look.
Two hours later I had to force myself to stop and go to bed

I don’t know if the progression system will stay fresh but it’s a lot of fun.

Those with the PS4 disc version, where can you see and purchase the £10 upgrade to the remastered version?

On my Playstation App I can't see it, only for full price. Or do you need to do it via console with game disc in?

You

You will need the disc in to play it, so I'd assume to buy it too.

Having said that, it went live on my ps5 (I have the digital version) at midnight, but the app was still showing it as not available.

Just booting up now. Can’t wait to get stuck in. Loved this game.

Edit. Phew, save import allows me a NG+. Thank god

Same I’ve played a few hours already this morning in NG+. Beautiful game. Not tried the new mode yet.

Plainsong · 19 Jan 2024 at 15:55

Ok well I tried it for a few waves of the rogue like and it’s great and I am hooked!

Plainsong · 19 Jan 2024 at 18:16

Completed the run and the boss. Jesus that was stressful!

BuffetSlayer · 19 Jan 2024 at 21:59

So how are folks finding the visual upgrades? Is there much of a difference?

monkeyspank · 19 Jan 2024 at 22:56

It’s been a while since I last played it but I think it looks good. Main things I’ve noticed are the much better load times and the dualsense integration. The ps4 version looked good on the ps5 at 60fps to me so it’s hard to say but it’s very smooth now

Is the quality mode at 120hz unlocked with VRR or 30 fps only?

Not tried it but the Eurogamer thing i skimmed over said with VRR it’s similar to spider-man 2 at 40fps. I still prefer 60 performance so I always play with that.
