The Last of Us PS5 gives Ellie two t-shirts from the HBO show to wear

Part 1: The Last of Us on PlayStation 5 got a couple of sweet, crossover-themed cosmetics for Ellie, but perhaps more importantly, a hotfix for the PC version arrived the same day, solving one of the many issues its players have faced since that version’s launch a month ago.

First, the hotfix; version 1.0.2.1 for Windows PC “includes a highly requested improvement for the camera jitter experienced by players who use mouse and keyboard,” Naughty Dog wrote in the patch notes. The patch was released Tuesday afternoon.

There are six major issues still known and being investigated, the studio said, most of them involving graphical performance (and two of those related to shaders, which have caused some unbelievable waits as players’ CPUs compile them). So the hotfix hardly cures what has been an admittedly poor launch, but it’s a step in the right direction.

Now for the fun stuff: Patch 1.03, which also launched on Tuesday, puts “new HBO in-game t-shirt cosmetics for Ellie.” A tweet Naughty Dog sent announcing the patch showed her wearing a T-shirt from The Wire. It’s clear this is a celebration of TLOU’s highly successful first season on the network, which just ended March 12.

But wait, there’s more: Ellie also has access to a Mortal Kombat 2,shirt, which refers to the delightful flashback scene and its fan-service adaptation on the show We are the last of us: The ones left behindThis is also included in Part 1: The Last of UsThe current-generation rerelease, which was launched on PS5 in September

The Mortal Kombat 2, shirt isn’t mentioned in the patch notes, so it’s not clear if this and The Wire These are the two HBO tie-ins. Remember that Mortal Kombat belongs to Warner Bros.
