HBO's *The Last of Us* season one 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 must-see. With season two premiering this April on Max, now's the perfect time to catch up—and what better way than with the stunning limited-edition steelbook release of the complete first season? Available for pre-order now, and hitting shelves March 18th, this collectible is a must-have for fans.

For the uninitiated, the first season masterfully adapts the events of the original game and its *Left Behind* expansion, enhancing the narrative with additional world-building. Showrunners Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann (a key creative force behind the games) penned the scripts, ensuring authenticity and emotional depth.

Pedro Pascal shines as Joel Miller, alongside Bella Ramsey as Ellie. Adding a delightful touch, Troy Baker and Ashley Johnson (the original game's Joel and Ellie) also appear. The series follows Joel's cross-country journey with Ellie through a post-apocalyptic America ravaged by a fungal infection, a journey crucial to humanity's survival.

As a huge fan of the game series, I can wholeheartedly recommend the show as a truly faithful and captivating adaptation. For a more in-depth analysis, check out our *The Last of Us* season one review.
