The last two months have been fairly busy for video game releases. Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, Civilization 7, Monster Hunter Wilds, and Split Fiction all released within just a few weeks of one another. 2025 shows no signs of stopping either, with Assassin's Creed Shadows just days away from release, South of Midnight coming at the start of April, and even Fatal Fury's long-awaited return being right around the corner. And amid it all is The Last of Us.
In a recent interview with Variety, Naughty Dog's Neil Druckmann said that fans "shouldn't bet on" there being a Last of Us Part 3. Whether or not that's true, The Last of Us isn't going anywhere anytime soon, with the franchise set to release two projects in April 2025.
The Last of Us Has Two Big Projects Out in April 2025
The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered Is Coming to PC in April
Released back in January 2024, The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered gives the award-winning 2020 action-adventure game a slight graphical makeover, and implements a range of other technical and gameplay improvements and additions. The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered is set to hit Steam and the Epic Games Store on April 3, 2025, where it'll retail for $49.99.
Along with some graphical improvements, The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered comes with a handful of new modes and features, the most substantial of which is the roguelike 'No Return' mode. This mode sees players slaughter their way through waves of enemies as a variety of fan-favorite Last of Us characters, each equipped with a unique set of weapons and abilities.
The Last of Us Part 1's PC release in March 2023 was an infamous disaster, with the game suffering severe technical issues for weeks after launch. Hopefully The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered can avoid those issues off the bat.
The Last of Us Part 1 is currently available in Steam's Spring sale for $29.99, for those eager to play the first game before Part 2's release on PC next month.
The Last of Us Season 2 Begins in April
Premiering in January 2023, HBO's live-action The Last of Us adaptation is widely regarded to be one of the best video game adaptations of all time, featuring stellar performances, great visual effects, and thrilling action. One of The Last of Us' greatest strengths was its ability to add to the series' lore while remaining faithful to the source material. It looks like The Last of Us Season 2 will be following suit.
