Experience the emotional storytelling and unforgettable characters of Joel and Ellie in The Last of Us, winner of over 200 Game of the Year awards and now rebuilt for PlayStation 5. Enjoy a total overhaul of the original experience, faithfully reproduced but incorporating modernized gameplay, improved controls and expanded accessibility options. Plus, feel immersed with improved effects and enhanced exploration and combat. It also includes the Left Behind story DLC.
Twenty years after a mutated fungus started turning people all over the world into deadly zombies, humans become an endangered species. Joel, a Texan in his forties with the "emotional range of a teaspoon" (to quote Hermione from Harry Potter), finds himself responsible with the safety of a fourteen year old girl named Ellie whom he must smuggle to a militia group called the Fireflies. And as if the infected aren't enough of a hassle, they also have to deal with the authorities who wouldn't let them leave the quarantine zone, as well as other survivors capable of killing anyone who might have something useful in their backpacks.

Masterwork.
There is nothing left to say that I haven't said already about this. I haven't played this one since 2013 (yes, 2013) & I still feel the same way that I felt as I did when first playing through it. Every inch is perfected & I couldn't be happier to see it still standing true.
I will admit, I was hesitant to pick this up because of the hefty price tag ($69.99), but I must say, this is 100% worth it. The graphical overhaul, sound, dualsense, & everything in between is worth the price of admission. In my top 5 games of all time & I am proud to own the definitive version.
I will be playing through this to clean up for a platinum & also playing the "Left Behind" DLC, which I never got to play.
Final verdict: Buy it
