As The Last of Us PC is having a tough time on Steam, thanks to shader load times, startup errors, and an official “unsupported” tag for Valve’s Steam Deck, horror game Naughty Dog, he finally has a new hero in the form of the Mandalorian. and TLOU HBO star Pedro Pascal, as the man who started a thousand memes, replaces the grizzled, bearded face of the original Joel with a new The Last of Us mod.
We’ve already seen how you can play The Last of Us without a graphics card, but if Naughty Dog’s PC port issues are still getting you down, maybe injecting a little Pascal is the right remedy.
Created by ‘Speclizer’, in conjunction with the modding team at Alpha Studios, the mod takes an extremely detailed capture of the (quite handsome) face of Pedro Pascal and applies it to Joel. Do you want to create some kind of bizarre hybrid fanfiction of the game and the series? Now you can.
Sometimes it seems a bit unusual, a bit of a strange valley. Other times, however, Pedro’s face matches the rest of the game perfectly. It takes some getting used to, and there are definitely a few scenes where things seem to go out of sync, but for the most part, if you are a huge Pascal fan, this is a great way to play the guy of your dreams. You can get the Pedro Pascal Last of Us mod here.
Otherwise, fix some of the TLOU issues with the best Last of Us settings. You’ll also want to find all of The Last of Us Workbench locations, or The Last of Us Training Manuals, to prepare for the apocalypse.
