The developer Naughty Dog has released a new update for the recently released The Last Of Us Part II Remastered. Along with various accessibility and gameplay improvements, the update patch also includes new bonus skins for Ellie and Abby.

The developer has included various fixes as well as new content named ‘Grounded II’.

Apart from fixing various gameplay-related bugs, this new patch also introduces some changes to the No Return mode. One of the major ones is that players won’t be able to enable mirror gameplay modifiers in the No Return mode. Furthermore, the new patch also allows players to enable the Director’s Commentary from the beginning. Originally, players could only turn this commentary on after completing the entire story.
