PlayStation delivering massive refunds to gamers now, so check your emails

A very happyThe Last of Us Part II Remasteredrelease day to all those who celebrate. Having played through this newest edition, I can attest that you are in for a treat.

In GAMINGbible’sreview, I awarded the game a perfect score of 10, writing, “As a full package, there’s nothing else you could possibly want fromThe Last of UsPart II Remastered. We all thoughtPart IIwasNaughty Dog’s magnum opus butPart II Remasteredshows that there’s plenty more gas in the tank. If this is insight into what’s to come from the studio, I cannot wait to see what Naughty Dog is cooking up next.” For those of you who’ve pre-ordered physical copies, I hope they’ve begun dropping through your letter box (I know my WLF Edition has, waiting to be opened). If you’ve pre-ordered the game digitally though, you may be in for a surprise in the way of a refund.

Take a look at our video review ofThe Last of Us Part II Remasteredbelow.

It’s a tad confusing so stay with me on this. If you purchaseThe Last of Us Part II Remasteredon the PlayStation Store, it’ll cost you £44.99. This is aimed at people who do not own the game already. If you ownThe Last of Us Part IIon PS4, you can simply upgrade for £10. What many fans have done though is despite owning the PlayStation 4 version, have paid for an entirely new copy.

Why depends on the individual. It could be that they wanted to gain the pre-order bonuses (early access to an ammo capacity upgrade and crafting training manual), or it could be that they didn’t know about the upgrade path. Well, Sony has begun issuing automatic refunds for all those who have purchased the new version in full (if they own the PS4 version), advising them to buy the upgrade instead. As a nice touch, they’ve included pre-order bonuses.
