The Last Of Us - PC vs PS5 Gameplay Experience
18The Last of Us Part I, a popular post-apocalyptic action-adventure game, is set to make its debut on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store on March 28, 2023. The game was previously released on PlayStation consoles and received critical acclaim for its gripping storyline, immersive gameplay, and stunning visuals. With the upcoming PC release, developer Naughty Dog has detailed the game's features and specs to give players an idea of what to expect.
One of the major advantages of the PC version is the ability to take advantage of PC-centric quality-of-life enhancements. These include AMD FSR 2.2 support, Nvidia DLSS Super Resolution support, VSync, and frame rate cap options, and a host of other features designed specifically for PC, including adjustable Texture Quality, Shadows, Reflections, Ambient Occlusion, and more. Players will be able to fully immerse themselves in the game's haunting environments in stunning detail with true 4K resolutions. The game also supports Ultra-Wide Monitor with both 21:9 Ultrawide and 32:9 Super Ultrawide aspect ratios.
In terms of controls, the PC version supports a wide range of gamepads, including the DualSense controller via a wired connection for haptic feedback and dynamic triggers, as well as the DualShock 4 controller, keyboard and mouse, and other gamepads. The game includes a number of new control customization options, including full control remapping, primary and secondary bindings for keyboard and mouse control, and an adaptive mode that allows players to combine keyboard and controller inputs.
The PC version includes a number of bug fixes and improvements throughout the game, thanks in part to community feedback. Additionally, the game includes The Last of Us Part I's suite of accessibility features, allowing players to adjust the experience to suit their needs and preferences.
When it comes to hardware, Naughty Dog has recommended the following specifications to ensure a smooth experience:
Operating System: Windows 10 (64-bit)
Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X or Intel Core i5-10600K
Graphics: AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT or Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060
RAM: 16 GB
Storage: 100 GB SSD
It's worth noting that these specifications are similar to those required to play the game on PlayStation 5, which was released in 2021. However, the PC version has the added advantage of being able to take advantage of PC-centric features and having more customizable controls.
Overall, The Last of Us Part I on PC promises to be an exciting way for both new and returning players to experience Joel and Ellie's emotional journey in a new way, with improved graphics and a range of PC-centric features.
