This limited-edition collectible steelbook is priced at $49.99, but you can save 9% by getting it for $45.44 at Amazon. It's also available at Target and Walmart. For those yet to experience the series, the first season faithfully recreates the events of the original game and its Left Behind expansion, enhanced with additional world-building storylines crafted by showrunners Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann. Druckmann, known for his role as a writer and creative director for the video games, brings his expertise to the screen.

In the Max adaptation, Pedro Pascal embodies the character of Joel Miller, with Bella Ramsey stepping into the role of Ellie. Fans of the games will appreciate the inclusion of Troy Baker and Ashley Johnson, who voiced Joel and Ellie respectively, now appearing in the series. The storyline mirrors the game, chronicling Joel's mission to escort Ellie across a post-apocalyptic America overrun by fungal zombies, where Ellie's unique immunity could be humanity's last hope.

As a fan of the *The Last of Us* series, I believe the show brilliantly captures the essence of the game's compelling narrative. For a deeper dive into the series, check out our review of *The Last of Us* season one.
