for The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered is now available to download on PS5 and PC (although it&#8217;s version number 1.5 on the latter).<\/p>\n<p>As reported in the original story below, the update brings a new &#8216;Chronological&#8217; mode to the title, along with a handful of performance improvements and bug fixes.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong>Original Story:<\/strong> Well this is a surprise. Naughty Dog has announced a brand new update for The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered, which lets you play through the whole game in chronological order.<\/p>\n<div class=\"insert-label centered insert lazyload for-mobile insert-extended lazyload\">\n<div id=\"PS_MPU_X_X686D4066C7923\" style=\"min-width:300px; min-height:250px\" data-dfp-id=\"pushsquare\/mobile_web_display\/article\" data-dfp-sizes=\"300x250,300x600\" data-dfp-targeting=\"pos=1,gto=false,experiment=nl-article-mobile-1\" class=\"lazyload\" data-prebid-config=\"Lazy_Load_HP_MPU\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The suitably named Chronological Experience reshuffles Ellie and Abby&#8217;s adventure so that events play out across a linear timeline.

Players will be able to see how Ellie being gifted a guitar flows so neatly into her learning to play, for example, while the journey through Seattle will showcase the fascinating parallels between Ellie and Abby\u2019s crisscrossing journeys. You\u2019ll see just how close they come into running into each other, how their actions impact each other, and more.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>This update was apparently made possible via a collaboration between the developer and Nixxes \u2014 the company behind most of Sony&#8217;s first-party PC ports.<\/p>\n<div class=\"insert-label centered insert lazyload for-mobile lazyload\">\n<div id=\"PS_MPU_X_P686D4066C797C\" style=\"min-width:300px; min-height:250px\" data-dfp-id=\"pushsquare\/mobile_web_display\/article\" data-dfp-sizes=\"300x250\" data-dfp-targeting=\"pos=1,gto=false,experiment=nl-article-mobile-2\" class=\"lazyload\" data-prebid-config=\"Lazy_Load_HP_MPU\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The Chronological Experience is out today (the 8th July) for both PS5 and PC.
