The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered launched for PC on Thursday, finally bringing the acclaimed 2020 action-adventure title to the platform, and it seems to have got off to a decent start with its new audience.
As per SteamDB, on its PC launch day, The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered saw a peak of 23,350 concurrent players on Steam. Those aren’t necessary groundbreaking numbers, but presumably, they will continue to rise over the game’s first weekend.
In comparison, The Last of Us Part 1 has a peak of 36,496 concurrent Steam players. It should be interesting to see whether its sequel can surpass it. One area where it has got off to a decidedly better start is its reception. Where Part 1’s PC port was widely criticized upon release, Part 2 has a Very Positive user review rating on Steam at the time of writing, with 91 percent of its 1000-and-odd user ratings being positive.
The Last of Us Part 2 is available on PS5, PS4, and PC. Read our review of the PC port through here. Season 2 of HBO’s The Last of Us adaptation is also coming later this month.
