I’ll admit that I had The Last of Us video game sitting in my game room for a while before playing it. After finally watching season one of the show, I was convinced that I needed to go ahead and pop the game into my PlayStation 4 and start playing it. Now, it’s one of my favorite games. From the visuals to the gameplay experience, there’s a reason why it’s so popular. Plus, who doesn’t love a good zombie-apocalyptic game?
If you haven’t played it yet or just want the PS5 version, it’s on sale for 32% off on Amazon. This means that you can grab it for just $48 compared to the regular $70 price point.
While I have the PlayStation 4 version of this game, it’s been optimized for the PlayStation 5 console. This means it has upgraded animations, authentic lighting and environments, reimagined spaces, and elevated combat moves, giving this version a better gameplay experience.
Season one of The Last of Us TV show follows the storyline of the game, so you’ll play as Joel and Ellie as they battle enemies, dodge and fight off the infected and build their father-daughter-like relationship in a cross-country adventure. From fast runners to clickers to bloaters, you’ll learn how to take down the zombies using Joel’s revolver and Ellie’s bow.
Since it’s upgraded, this game also loads fast and lets you pick up right where you left off. Plus, the rich 3D audio delivers sounds like no other, so you’ll thoroughly hear the explosives, gunshots, dialogue and sounds the infected make.
Customers and gamers gave this fan favorite game a 4.8 out of 5-star rating, leaving over 2,300 reviews: “This game is an absolute masterpiece and a gaming experience that left me deeply moved and utterly captivated,” one reviewer notes. “The attention to detail in the environments, character animations and visual effects is simply awe-inspiring.
