But will it arrive before The Last Of Us Part 1 on PC?

You’ll need to skip to the 1.40 mark to get to The Last Of Us segment, but yep, that sure looks like some grim zombie-ing!

The question is, will it arrive beforeThe Last Of Us Part 1hits PC? The fancy remake of Naughty Dog’s PlayStation exclusive is set to arrive on the PlayStation 5 in just over a week’s time on September 2nd, but the only thing we know about itsconfirmed PC releaseis that it will be arriving “very soon” afterwards. That could be a few months, or it could be a year, we just don’t know.

The shortest PlayStation to PC gap we’ve seen so far has probably been forDeath Stranding, which took around nine months to make the jump, but most other PlayStation exclusives have taken the best part of two years to come across. I doubt we’ll be waiting that long in this particular case, but Sony’s head of PlayStation Studios Herman Hulst have said previously that weshouldn’t expect PlayStation games to launch simultaneouslyon PC. Naturally, we’ll keep you posted as soon as we know more here.

In any case, if the game does end up launching around a similar time to the HBO TV show, I think I might just watch it rather than play through the whole thing a second time. I’m not sure I really need to see 4K giraffes running at 60fps, if I’m honest, and the memory of those terrible trolley puzzles still haunt me to this very day. But what do you think, dear readers? Will you be tuning in, or playing the game?
