The Last of Us is about to kick off its second season, on Max this Sunday, and as always Sony has decided it’s the perfect time to release another edition of Last of Us games.
The Last of Us Complete: Collector’s Edition is another special edition of the Last of Us games exclusively for the PS5. This new edition is scheduled to come out July 10 for $110, with preorders already available.
The latest edition includes:
- Steelbook Case with physical discs of The Last of Us Part I and The Last of Us Part II Remastered
- Left Behind prequel chapter
- The Last of Us: American Dreams comics, issues 1 through 4, with new cover art
- A set of four lithographic art prints
- A thank-you letter from series co-creator Neil Druckmann
As these are the latest Remastered versions of the two games, they’ll come with additional content, including behind-the-scenes commentary; cut content from the game, called Lost Levels; a No Return mode; and guitar free play. There doesn’t appear to be any “new” content in this complete edition that wasn’t released in the previous remastered versions.
The Last of Us first came out in 2013 for the PS3, and a year later it received its first remastered version for the PS4. Then, in 2022, it received a remake for the PS5 called The Last of Us Part I, which included updates to the gameplay and graphics, and new game modes such as Permadeath, Speedrun and New Game Plus. This version was released in late 2022 so that it could be readily available before the premiere of the first season of The Last of Us television show, which began airing in January 2023. Developer Naughty Dog intended to improve on Part I so that it would be a seamless transition to jump to Part II when playing them back-to-back instead of having noticeable differences in games released several years apart.
Season 2 of The Last of Us is set to start on Sunday. The series has already been renewed for a third season. Co-creators Druckmann and Craig Mazin have already confirmed that the show will likely end after four seasons.
