I don't think there's any reason to believe Sony will not do paid remasters. This is just an enhanced BC patch, not a new PS5 version of the game. All of Sony's enhanced BC patches have been free so far, so this isn't any different. While we don't really know what, how, of if they'll put out native PS5 versions of prior games, and if they do will they monetize them.
I think it's great ND and Playstation put out this patch (and for free), but you're right it is just an enhanced BC patch and it only really affects the framerate with some loading improvements. I think there's still an opportunity for ND to release a native PS5 version of the game, given how recent it is, and that's something I'd like to see.
To be fair, this isn't the PS5 version with factions... they said they are working on that. We still don't know if they'll charge for it.
I almost cynically believe Sony/ND were prepping up a proper PS5 release and saving features such as this one but maybe in the end just said fuck it and moved on from TLOU2 lol.
Just wait till Arrogant Sony and Radical Jim package out a definitive edition next year featuring RTX and Dual Sense implementation for 70 bucks!
Druckmannn cant keep getting away with it.

People are jumping the gun thinking a remaster is out of the question. Until Factions gets revealed, let's wait. But some people just want to get their snide remarks in. It's a nice patch to unlock the frame rate (honestly what I really cared about) but let's not act like it has the bells and whistles that usually comes with all these enhanced editions.
With this patch TLOU 2 should be the most impressive game on any console including the next gen already released games.
One of the greatest games of all time will now be playable at 60fps. People are understandably excited. Some people also waited for this to happen before playing it for the first time. No one is praising ND so much as they are simply stating their excitement to play a legendary game with a major frame rate enhancement.
Nope. They would need to make a dedicated PS5 version for that. This is just a PS4 patch for BC.
Holy shit. I've been purposely holding off playing it for the PS5 version. Looks like I'm buying this one this weekend!
Now...next week Bloodborne patch stealth drop....!?
Just kidding.

I still think we'll get a "Remastered" native PS5 version alongside the eventual TLOU1 PS5 remake. Those two in a package for $70 with first-party standard level of quality to take advantage of all of the PS5's features is something I can get behind, especially now that the "we just wanted 60 fps" crowd gets their free upgrade.
Fucking yikes
Yeah, it sucks getting a free 60fps patch to the most technically impressive console game ever released 🙄
What's amazing is how good this game played at 30. I can only imagine what it's going to feel like at 60fps.
Happens every time even though there are always people explaining why they need to use that language
reminder that according to Jason, ND wasn't making TLOU1 Remake but the game landed on them so they must have canned a proper TLOU2 PS5 Remaster so they could finish TLOU1r.
unless Jason talks more, we will never know haha.
Yo TLg is 60 fps if you have the disc versionOk now that we got the riffraff out of the way let's focus on more important things
User Warned - Lazy Dev Rhetoric
Hate that Sony continue to be lazy with patches to their PS4 games instead of native PS5 ports. Even if they don't do visual enhancements even though some minor enhancements wouldn't take much either at the least they could be taking full advantage of the SSD and Dualsense. Patches to PS4 games are too limited.
this is just fps patch, Spider-Man remaster have a lot more stuff going on that I think it's fair to ask for payment.
Yeah I could see that. I wonder if they could find a way to charge for a full remaster after this? I think they'll also patch Lost Legacy and Uncharted 4 at some point.
