Naughty Dog is back with yet another way for players to buy The Last of Us. The team announced a new bundle called The Last of Us Complete, which has the latest editions of both award-winning games for the PlayStation 5. This Complete edition runs $100 for the digital bundle, which is available now. A physical collector's edition can be pre-ordered now for $110, with availability expected on July 10. The original 2013 game was remastered for the PS4 just a year after its release, then received a complete remake and rebrand as The Last of Us Part I in 2022 for the PS5. Naughty Dog also moved pretty quick on the remaster of the 2020 sequel, pushing out the The Last of Us Part II Remastered early last year. The Part II project was a $10 upgrade that included new content as well as new bells and whistles for the graphics, but the Part I remake displeased some fans with its $70 asking price. The announcement of this new game bundle was timed to align nicely with the debut of the TV adaptation's second season, which premieres on April 13 and has already been confirmed for a third season. Between this new bundle being dubbed Complete and a recent interview with creator Neil Druckman, this does seem to squash any hopes fans might have had for the game to have a third installment. At least that means Complete really should be the last time you need to buy the titles. (At least, the last time until the PlayStation 6 arrives)This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/gaming/playstation/sonys-first-ps5-exclusive-of-2025-is-the-last-of-us-210329305.html?src=rss

On the heels of Razer pausing direct laptop sales in the US (thanks to those on-again, off-again, yet still very much on for China tariffs), the company has officially launched its remote game streaming app. Razer PC Remote Play, which the company rolled out in beta at CES 2025, is now officially available for iOS and Android. Razer may be a bit late to the party here, and its app is hardly the only way to stream your PC games to other devices. (For example, Steam's version has offered similar functionality for six years.) But Razer's app has a neat trick: It automatically adjusts the game's resolution and frame rate to match your mobile device's. So, you can avoid the black bars you get with services that only stream games in a fixed aspect ratio. Razer The company says it works with all iOS and Android gaming controllers, and the iPad version has keyboard, mouse and trackpad support. It works with titles from multiple storefronts (including Steam, Epic, PC Game Pass and more). The app uses the AV1 video codec, which Razer says boosts quality and lowers latency. Setup requires the Razer Nexus and PC Remote Play apps on your mobile device and Razer Cortex on the host PC. After signing in with your Razer ID, the two should pair automatically, and you can get down to business. You can download the app now from Google Play and the App Store.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/gaming/pc/razers-pc-remote-play-app-is-now-available-182533832.html?src=rss

Panic has set a date for when it will share more about the second season of Playdate games. The company is hosting a Playdate Update event on April 17, at 1PM ET / 10AM PT where it plans to cover the developers participating in the season, how you can pre-order it and how much it'll cost. The Playdate's season structure was one of the main things that made the tiny handheld unique when it was first released. Every week for 12 weeks you receive two new games automatically downloaded to your Playdate, free of charge. The list was curated, featuring games from prominent developers like Katamari Damacy creator Keita Takahashi, but also varied, with adventure games, platformers and more. Given the difficulties Panic faced making and shipping the Playdate to customers, there was initially some uncertainty whether the company could afford to commission another season. Before season two became official, Panic introduce an on-device store, called Catalog, as a way to purchase games from a curated library of titles. Then in October 2024, Panic confirmed that season two was happening in 2025. In a statement to press, Panic shared that through the Playdate and Catalog, they've been able to raise $1,043,186.85 for developers. The company has also sold over 70,000 Playdate handhelds since the device launched in 2022. The price of the Playdate was recently raised from $179 to $229. You'll be able to watch the Season Two Playdate Update on April 17 at 1PM ET / 10AM ET on Panic's website and the company's YouTube channel.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/gaming/panic-will-showcase-the-second-season-of-playdate-games-on-april-17-181556782.html?src=rss
