Following a delay driven by the popularity of the hit HBO show,The Last of Us Part 1is now set to arrive on PC on March 28. And with that big day now just a few weeks away, Sony has revealed the detailed system requirements and an up-close look at the game’s PC-specific features.
The PC version of The Last of US Part 1 will support 4K resolution, 21:9 and 32:9 aspect ratios, support for AI upscaling with AMD FSR 2.2 and Nvidia DLSS, “and a host of features designed specifically for PC, including adjustable Texture Quality, Shadows, Reflections, Ambient Occlusion, and more.”
Mouse and keyboard setups with options for “full control remapping” will be supported—a must for PC games, but not always a given—as will a “wide range” of controllers including the Sony DualSense, which will support “haptic feedback and dynamic triggers” through wired connections.
“As our team has been hard at work on the PC version since Part 1’s PS5 release, we’ve also been continuously listening to player feedback,” Naughty Dog said on thePlayStation Blog. “The Last of Us Part 1 on PC will include a number of bug fixes and improvements throughout the game, in big part thanks to our community’s feedback.”
So, what do you need to enjoy all this new hotness? The full specs are below:
Minimum (30 fps @720p, low settings):
Recommended (60 fps @1080p, high settings):
Performance (60 fps @1440p, high settings):

In all cases, you’ll need to be running Windows 10 64-bit, version 1909 or newer.
“The Last of Us Part 1 on PC will bring with it the same core gameplay experience of the PS5 version, including its award-winning campaign, the Left Behind DLC chapter, additional modes like Speedrun Mode, Permadeath Mode, and Photo Mode,” Naughty Dog said. “Part 1’s PC launch will also include The Last of Us Part 1’s suite of accessibility features so that players can adjust the experience to suit their needs and preferences.”
