14 DAY TRIAL // Naughty Dog is launching a pretty big update today, for the upgraded and revised version of The Last of US on PlayStation 4, adding a bunch of new content to the game's online multiplayer mode.
The Last of Us Remastered Patch 1.08 adds quite a few new items to the Factions multiplayer mode, including the Variable, Scoped Semi-Auto, Scoper Full-Auto and Scoped Burst rifles, alongside a collection of various loadout presets and weapon-specific missions.
Furthermore, the update also paves the road for the two free maps that will come out later this week, alongside additional fixes, including an update meant to improve matchmaking times.
The maps will be delivered for free "in appreciation for all of your continued patience" regarding the various issues that the game's online matchmaking system has experienced, and are headed for both the PS3 and PS4 versions of the game.
PlayStation 3 owners are not forgotten, and the last-gen edition of The Last of Us is also seeing a new patch, implementing a rather lengthy list of balance tweaks and miscellaneous fixes, in order to bring it up to par with the PlayStation 4 version.
"For PS3 players, patch 1.08 will be made available globally over the next 24 hours. PS4 will a get live update during this time," Naughty Dog said.
