September 26 is Outbreak Day in The Last of Us universe, and Sony is marking the occasion this year with the release of The Last of Us Part 1 for PS Plus Extra.
Originally released in September 2022 for PS5, The Last of Us Part 1 is an enhanced version of The Last of Us that previously arrived on PS3 and PS4. The visuals have received an impressive glow-up, with details in the characters models and environments all having benefited greatly from the added horsepower of Sony’s latest home console. Users can also prioritise resolution or frame rate in two graphics modes, and The Last of Us: Left Behind is also included as part of the package.
