For those who missed out on The Last of Us - whether it was on its initial release on PS3 or remaster on PS4 a year later - the PlayStation-exclusive post-apocalyptic yarn was lauded as much for its characters and depth of writing as it was its undeniable technical achievements. Now it's available to play on PS5, as a remake called The Last Of Us Part 1.

The package comes with the Left Behind DLC bundled in, which helps give Ellie some more backstory while filling in some gaps from the main story. It even has its own collectibles to find.
