Naughty Dog announced it has delayed the release of the PC version of The Last of Us Part I from March 3 to March 28.
"We initially announced The Last of Us Part I PC release would be March 3, but we've decided to push its launch date out just a few weeks; it will now be released on March 28," reads a tweet from Naughty Dog.
"We at the studio have been completely blown away by the outpouring of love and support for The Last of Us these last few weeks. 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.
"We know a lot of you have been revisiting the story that started it all with The Last of Us Part I on PlayStation 5 console, and we realize many of you have been excited to jump in – some for the first time – when Part I hits PC.
"And so we want to make sure that The Last of Us Part I 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.
"We are so excited to bring The Last of Us Part I to a new platform, reaching new and returning players with Joel and Ellie’s unforgettable story of survival, and we hope that you’ll continue to look forward to its PC release on March 28."
The remake first released for the PlayStation 5 on September 2. The original game released for the PlayStation 3 in June 2013 and the remaster for the PlayStation 4 in July 2014.

Success of the show must be leading ND to make the PC port as flawless as humanly possible. I’m all for it. Found a $20 off coupon, so I already got it pre-ordered!
Or they want more time for the shows popularity to seep through so more people having watched decide to check the game out , but unlike me ND probably can do two things at once so most likely both.
or they wait so more people buy a PS5 for it before releasing it on PC.
There could be one or another person doing it, but yes a few weeks/moths wait wouldn't make anyone decide to take the jump to buy a PS5.
No big deal! It seems like most people are okay with minor delays these days, especially when it comes to PC ports lol
Steam deck verified!
I hope this is to make sure it's polished, and not because they want show saturation to reach a point for more pre-orders.
Good as long as it plays great i cant wait to jump in on PC its the main reason why i've put off watching the TV show till after i finish the game.
That is unfortunate, hope they polish more and deliver a better product with this.
Do we think TLOU2 will eventually go to PC?
Yep
good, there aren't any good prices on next gen video cards yet anyways, hopefully the 4070 will be out by then
Damn I was holding off playing anything else because this was coming on the 3rd. Guess I'll jump into another game for now.
It's all right naughty dog don't disappoint except for this one the so called "remake" haha
