To upgrade your digital PS4 edition of The Last of Us 2 to the Remastered PS5 version, you will need to pay a fee of $10 via the PlayStation Store. You’ll be able to purchase the upgrade on the release date itself via the game’s PlayStation Store page.

Alternatively, if you have a physical copy of the game, you will need to own a PS5 with a disc drive to avail of the upgrade. After you purchase the remaster, you will then need to insert your The Last of Us 2 PS4 disc into your console each time you want to play the sequel, so be careful not to misplace or lose your copy.

Of course, if you want to get all the goodies Naughty Dog has included with the game’s exclusive W.L.F. edition, you’ll have to shell out the full $99.99 asking price. However, it is worth noting that the game’s priciest version is currently out of stock on the PlayStation Store, so you may have to resort to purchasing resale if you’re still looking to get it.
