The Last of Us Part 1 PS5 has a new update that adds those stylish HBO-inspired cosmetics previously only available on PC.

The Last of Us Part 1 launched on PC with a now infamous collection of bugs and performance issues, but it also came with some pretty sweet t-shirts for Ellie with logos for Mortal Kombat and The Wire. Of course, both of those IPs are owned by HBO and its parent company, Warner Bros., the same folks responsible for the excellent Last of Us TV show.

As I touched on earlier, The Last of Us Part 1 on PC has been absolutely riddled with problems since launch - to the point where Valve downgraded the port to "unsupported" on Steam Deck - and it's since received numerous hotfixes and patches aimed to improve its visuals and performance. 

This latest patch proves that the PS5 version isn't entirely without its kinks, with today's patch promising fixes for some pretty wild-sounding bugs. "Shooting a doctor will no longer make them invincible to flamethrowers," reads one particularly eyebrow-raising fix. That said, there's no denying the PC port still needs a lot more work than the PS5 version.

I got my big break here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021. That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western regional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horror game I'm too afraid to finish.
