The Last of Us For PC Gets A Permadeath Mode

Finally, The Last of Us Part 1 will soon be released on PC and will expand the player base by quite a bit. But also tons of OG players will dare to play the game again to pick up the PC experience. Naughty Dog's top runner is an all-time favorite of many players and is rarely played through just once. Many fans have made it their challenge to play the game on the most demanding difficulty levels and to master every aspect of this already "tough” game.

With PlayStation announcing a permadeath mode, fans will be put upon a new challenge. This game mode is new in the TLOU remaster , as the original game never had that kind of feature. Of course, we all know what a permadeath mode means in video games: "Don't die, otherwise you'll have to start over from the beginning". In the TLOU version however, there are some more rules to it. Here is how it works.

The Last Of Us Part 1: Permadeath Mode | How It Works

The permadeath mode works as follows, you can set the mode when you start a new game. As soon as you die in-game, all your progress is permanently wiped and you have to start all over again. Another restriction is that you cannot even leave the game in a dangerous situation, because this is also considered to be a death, so you better make sure your PC doesn't decide to crash.

The Last of Us is one of the best and especially one of the most compelling games out there. And if you're even half the fan we are, you should definitely take a look at this poster on Amazon. I love the sight of it right next to my gaming setup. What an awesome game, bring on the merchandise!
