After releasing some new updates earlier this week, Naughty Dog will bring out patch 1.09 (170MB) for The Last of Us on PlayStation 3 and patch 1.03 (137MB) for The Last of Us Remastered over the next 24 hours, adding support for the new maps to both titles, while also fixing a few issues in Remastered.
