As well as all nine episodes, the physical box sets will also include the following bonus features:

The 4K UHD release will be of particular note to UK fans who don’t subscribe to Sky. Their only legal option of watching the show was via Sky’s streaming service Now, which offers a maximum of 1080p streaming.
The Last of Us has already been renewed for a second season, following an overwhelmingly successful first season which saw HBO viewership figures that were second only to House of the Dragon in recent years.
Earlier this week co-creators Neil Druckmann and Craig Mazin seemingly confirmed their intention that a third season would be coming, by suggesting that season 2 wouldn’t be able to contain the entirety of The Last of Us Part II game.
