Sony is continuing to roll out patches for its biggest PlayStation 4 games, with The Last of Us Remastered (and its standalone The Last of Us: Left Behind expansion) being the latest recipients. Many have assumed that these surprise updates for legacy games are preparing them for the PlayStation 5, but there are actually some noticeable improvements on the manufacturer’s current-gen console here as well.
According to speed runner Anthony Calabrese, the game’s loading times have been dramatically reduced. Here’s what he had to say on Twitter:
It’s unclear what Naughty Dog has optimised here, but you can bank on the loads being virtually non-existent on the PS5 with these kinds of improvements. That’s great news for those of you planning to replay the title, or check it out for the first time as part of the PS Plus Collection.
