The Last of Us Part I has finally earned the Steam Deck verified badge. Neil Druckmann had assured fans that Ellie and Joel would make it to Valve's portable PC, but the game had a rocky launch on PC a few months ago. Now, with the v1.1.0 patch, the game runs smoothly on Steam Deck and PC. However, Naughty Dog warns that the patch will require a full shader rebuild.
The patch fixes various crashes and glitches that affected the game. It also improves the HUD and the object pushing mechanic. On PC, the patch boosts the CPU and GPU performance and enhances the textures and lighting. It also resolves many gameplay bugs and issues for a better gaming experience.
