What’s the point of buying a Blu-ray for a streaming series? Two big reasons: even for a hit HBO show like The Last of Us, there’s no guarantee it’ll always be easily accessible (see: Westworld). And once you get a load of all the extras included in the home release, you’ll have a lot of trouble resisting the purchase.
Quoting the official press release—perfectly timed, as emotions among fans are still running high after Sunday night’s devastating season one finale—Comics Beat and other sites shared that The Last of Us: The Complete First Season will arrive digitally on April 11 and on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and DVD July 18. This will include all nine episodes, three previously unreleased featurettes, and several that were previously released (but are nice to have all in one place with everything else here).
According to the press release, the special features are as follows:
The Last of Us has been renewed for a second season; while you wait for that (and for this home release), you can stream season one on HBO Max.
