The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered Update Adds New Skins in Latest Patch Notes

The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered got its first real update this week with a new set of patch notes adding content to the game like more alternate outfits for Abby and Ellie. The same update also introduced the documentary called “Grounded II: Making The Last of Us Part II” which gives players inside looks into how this game was made similar to what players got with Grounded: The Making of The Last of Us which was released over nine years ago now. The update in question is live now for The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered players on the PS5.

If you haven’t yet seen the skins in question that were added to the game, you can see them in the gallery below courtesy of some photo mode pictures from players who already unlocked them. Ellie gets a outfit reminiscent of her look in Boston while Abbie gets a yellow Washington Liberation Front rain jacket. And if you want to watch the Grounded II documentary, you can do so straight away on YouTube, too.
