The Last of Us Part 1 continues to get new patches on PC and the latest update has resolved a critical memory leak issue with the game.

Naughty Dog has shared the complete set of patch notes for the new update of The Last of Us Part 1 on PC. While they are continuing to work on optimizing the game, it has still not reached the stage where it would be called a good or decent port of the PS5 release.

This new hotfix for The Last of Us Part I version 1.0.1.6 is now available for PC. This update includes important fixes aimed at improving memory usage, optimizing performance, and resolving the crash on the first boot.

To enhance the gameplay experience, the devs have reduced the PSO cache size to minimize Out of Memory crashes, increased animation streaming memory, and added additional diagnostics for developer tracking purposes.
