The Last of Us 2 Update Reintroduces Unlockables with a Twist

Naughty Dog has just released the latest update for The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered, labeled 2.0.1. There’s a mix of reactions to it, as it brings both some relief and a bit of disappointment. Let’s start with the upside: the update patches things up after unlockables disappeared post the last update. But here’s the catch: you’ll need to dig up an older save file to get back what you lost.

Now, diving into the patch details for the PS5, here’s what you need to know:

First and foremost, this update is designed to bring back those missing campaign unlockables like extra weapon holsters and skill points that vanished if you continued your progress from a save initially created before the 2.0.0 update hit. To get back on track, make sure you’re working with save files from before April 3, 2025, at precisely 10 am PT/1 pm ET. If you’re hoping to recover your well-earned gear, sticking to this guideline is essential. If you happen to continue with a save from after that date but before applying the new patch, unfortunately, any gained unlockables might still be out of reach.

For those who, unfortunately, have had their save files overwritten, the situation looks rather bleak, and there isn’t a workaround at this moment.

Additionally, the team over at Naughty Dog is actively looking into another hiccup: the disappearing No Return skins that some gamers unlocked before the 2.0.0 patch. They’ve assured players that a fix is on the way in an upcoming update. Meanwhile, they’ve asked anyone experiencing this issue to contact their support team for assistance.

Stay tuned, as we’ll keep you posted with any new fixes or updates as soon as they are available.
