Naughty Dog rolled out a new update for The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered on PlayStation 5 and PC, featuring new cosmetic items. The game is already half a decade old and is still receiving post-launch support. The update features a new way to replay the controversial story and then some.

One of the surprises was outfits inspired by Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End. You can use these skins in your No Return runs. In this article, we will take a look at how you can unlock the Nathan and Sam Drake skins.

The main highlight of this new update is the Chronological Mode. For those unaware, the sequel had a unique storytelling structure. This was a major talking point within the gaming community. You will play through the story in the right order by constantly changing between Ellie’s and Abby’s perspectives.

It is worth noting that you will start a new save file. You cannot import your previous saves where you have maxed out the stats for Ellie and Abby, nor will it carry over your weapon upgrades. Completing the Chronological Mode will reward you with the new Nathan Drake skin for Joel Miller and Sam Drake for Tommy Miller in No Return.

There is no way to work around unlocking the Nathan and Sam Drake skins other than playing through the Chronological Mode. The game has a modest run time, and if you are interested in acquiring new outfits for your characters in No Return, this is the price you have to pay. It is a win-win to reexperience a controversial story in a way some fans think it should have been.
