Something to look forward to:<\/strong> Another PC port recommends 32GB of RAM for gameplay above 1080p. While not all recent major PC releases suggest such high memory usage, it is becoming a concerning trend as the industry fully transitions into a new console generation and a new technical floor for PC performance. <\/p>\n

Sony released details<\/a> on the PC system specs and features for The Last of Us Part I this week, just in time for the smash-hit HBO TV adaptation to conclude its first season. Although based on similar graphics technology, the GPU and memory requirements are significantly heavier than Naught Dog’s last PC port, Uncharted<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Last of Us Part I requires at least 16GB of RAM and 100GB of storage \u2013 much more than the PlayStation 5 version’s 79GB storage requirement. Furthermore, the system specs chart doesn’t mention an HDD. It’s unlikely that the game won’t boot from an HDD, but take the omission as a sign that Sony strongly recommends an SSD.<\/p>\n

Like other recent blockbusters, the game suggests an Nvidia GeForce GTX 970, GTX 1050 Ti, or AMD Radeon 470 at minimum for 30-frame-per-second gameplay at 720p. It also follows ongoing trends in recommending a GeForce RTX 2070 Super, RTX 3060, or Radeon RX 6600 XT for 1080p 60fps gameplay at high settings.<\/p>\n

Sony’s system requirement chart erroneously recommends a Radeon RX 5800 XT \u2013 a graphics card that doesn’t exist. Judging by the other cards in the “recommended” tier, it probably meant the 5700 XT.<\/p>\n

For playing at 1400p or 4K, Sony recommends 32GB of system memory and a recent high-end GPU. While unusually high, the requirement echoes recent titles like Forspoken and Sony’s Returnal.<\/p>\n

Like Sony’s other PC ports, The Last of Us Part I supports DLSS, FSR 2.2, 21:9 and 32:9 ultrawide, wired DualSense features, and 3D audio. Adjustable PC graphics settings include texture quality, shadows, reflections, ambient occlusion, and more. Like the PS5 version, the game doesn’t feature ray tracing.<\/p>\n

The Last of Us Part I arrives on Steam and the Epic Games Store on March 28. The standard edition is $59.99.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
