The Last of Us Gets a Season 1 Steelbook Just in Time for Season 2

HBO's *The Last of Us* first season is widely considered the gold standard of video game adaptations. Faithfully following the 2013 Naughty Dog game (with a few enriching additions), it's a masterpiece. With season two premiering on Max in April, now's the perfect time to revisit the critically acclaimed first season, especially with the release of a stunning limited-edition steelbook. Available for pre-order now, and launching March 18th, this collectible is a must-have for fans.

This limited-edition collectible steelbook is priced at $45.44 (a 9% saving from the original $49.99) and is available at Amazon, Target, and Walmart.

For newcomers, the season encompasses the events of the first game and its *Left Behind* expansion, enhanced with additional storylines that deepen the narrative. Showrunners Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann (a key figure in the game's creation) masterfully crafted the scripts.

Pedro Pascal brilliantly portrays Joel Miller, while Bella Ramsey shines as Ellie. Adding a delightful touch, Troy Baker and Ashley Johnson (the game's Joel and Ellie) also appear. The series faithfully follows the original game's plot: Joel guiding Ellie across a post-apocalyptic America ravaged by a fungal pandemic, where Ellie holds the key to humanity's survival.

As a huge fan of the game series, I wholeheartedly endorse the show's exceptional storytelling. For a more detailed breakdown, check out our *The Last of Us* season one review.
