The first Last of Us game has been facelifted from time to time by the creators and brought to new generations, so PlayStation 4 owners can also relive adventures with Joel and Ellie in remaster form. Also, a remake, considered by critics to be almost complete, has been released for the current generation, PlayStation 5, titled Last of Us Part I.
On March 28, The Last of Us Part 1 was also released for PC, but perfection did not match the qualities used in the PC version of the remake this time.
