No Return Mode Enhancements:
No Return mode welcomes two new playable characters: Bill from The Last of Us Part I and Marlene. Bill, a "Smuggler," utilizes a custom pump shotgun from dead drops, receiving double rewards. He's strong against melee but lacks a dodge ability. Marlene, a "Risk Taker," employs a Custom Assault Rifle, "All or Nothing" gambits, and a single path reroute per run.

Four new maps join the fray: Overlook (a Seraphites encounter location), School (the abandoned elementary school), Streets (Hillcrest neighborhood), and Nest (Abby's Infected-infested building).

This new content, including accompanying Trophies and bug fixes, arrives via a free 2.0.0 patch for PS5 and PC simultaneously.
PSN Login Incentives:
Optional PSN login unlocks PlayStation overlay, PSN Trophies, 50 in-game points for bonus features, and a new Ellie skin featuring Jordan A. Mun's jacket from Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet. This skin is also available on PS5 via the 2.0 patch.
