Following a disastrous launch on PC, Naughty Dog and Iron Galaxy Studios are hard at work fixing The Last of Us Part 1. With over four patches in a month, bug-fix updates are aplenty. The latest hotfix allows low-spec systems to properly render surfaces like water. Additionally, Ryzen X3D CPUs will see fewer crashes too. Players using mouse and keyboard will no longer feel a change in sensitivity when aiming as well. Here’s the full list of changes.
