The first season of HBO's *The Last of Us* is widely considered to be the best video game adaptation to date. Not only does it closely follow the narrative of the iconic 2013 Naughty Dog game for the PS3, but it also enriches the storyline with additional world-building. As excitement builds for the second season, set to premiere in April on Max, fans have a reason to celebrate. A stunning limited-edition steelbook release of the first season is now available for preorder, with a release date set for March 18. Here's everything you need to know about this must-have collector's item.

The Last of Us: The Complete First Season (4K UHD)
This limited-edition collectible steelbook is priced at $49.99, but you can snag it for $45.44 at Amazon, saving 9%. It's also available at Target and Walmart. For those who haven't yet experienced the first season, it encompasses the entire narrative of the original game and the *Left Behind* expansion, enhanced with additional storylines that deepen the world-building. The scripts for the season were crafted by the talented showrunners Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann, the latter being a key figure in the creation of both *The Last of Us* video games.
In the Max series, Pedro Pascal brilliantly portrays Joel Miller, with Bella Ramsey bringing Ellie to life. Notably, Troy Baker and Ashley Johnson, who voiced Joel and Ellie in the games, also appear in the show. The series follows the harrowing journey of Joel escorting Ellie across a post-apocalyptic America overrun by fungal zombies, where Ellie holds the key to humanity's salvation.
As a fan of the *The Last of Us* series, I believe the show does an outstanding job of translating the exceptional story to the screen. For a deeper dive into the season, check out our review of *The Last of Us* season one.
