LOS ANGELES, CA — An unexpected release of The Last of Us is set to arrive on PlayStation 5 consoles, although details about the game remain largely unknown. The news surfaced from reliable leaker billbil-kun, who shared the information via Dealabs.

According to the report, this upcoming release will be a physical edition, but it does not clarify whether it will feature new gameplay or merely serve as a re-release of existing titles. Billbil-kun initially speculated that the release might be a special edition of The Last of Us Part II Remastered, which is scheduled for a PC launch on April 3. However, a provided PS5 link indicates otherwise.

This raises questions about the nature of the new release. The Last of Us Part I saw the exclusive Firefly Edition in 2022, and a similar WLF Edition was launched alongside The Last of Us Part II Remastered on PS5 last year. As anticipation builds, gamers are left wondering what could be next.

The HBO series adaptation of The Last of Us will return on April 13, creating what may be an opportune moment for this new release. As a fan, I am eager for something innovative, but I remain cautious of overly inflated expectations.

While speculation around The Last of Us Part III seems unlikely and could be deemed premature, the possibility of new downloadable content raises eyebrows. If such content were in the works, it would likely accompany the recent remastered titles.

A more plausible explanation points to a bundled edition of both The Last of Us Part I and Part II, which has yet to be made available in that format. The Dealabs report mentions a retail price of $119.99, with the product expected to be distributed in both North America and Europe.

For long-time fans, there may even be added physical collectables in the new edition, reminiscent of the WLF Edition, which included exclusive memorabilia like pin badges and replica cards of Ellie’s superhero theme.

As excitement grows amongst the fanbase, it’s essential to remain grounded in expectations, particularly regarding any new in-game content.

With the arrival of season two of The Last of Us on April 13, the timing of this release could capitalize on the renewed interest surrounding the franchise.
